PHNOM PENH: Three years ago, Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen gifted locally crafted luxury wristwatches to other world leaders at the time, including Joe Biden during a regional summit in Phnom Penh.
Each Lotus Tourbillon timepiece was emblazoned with 25 jewels, with the crown-shaped logo of Cambodian conglomerate Prince Holding Group etched into its components. After accepting the watch, Biden transferred it to the US National Archives along with items with a combined value of US$1,790.
