Based on this watch from the same company, expecting a Shinola (or even Invicta) would be optimistic.

"Joe Ashton has spent 50 years working for the workers of the UAW."

I believe it was 50 years working for himself.

The watch can't be too much to get excited about given that it only cost slightly less than $40 to manufacture.

Well of course you can’t spend money on an item when it’s only meant to line your pocket

Why no! No corporation ever exploited a worker! Goodness no.

unfortunately, gouging and greed seem to be part of what makes the world go round... its quite depressing really.
