On May 5, Dov Kleiman shared a video on his X featuring Travis Hunter conversing with his pals.


Travis: What type of watch this is?

His pals: Presidential roly. Presidential roly. That's the big boy.

Travis: What do you mean?

His pals: That's the big boy.

Travis: How much does that cost?

Travis questions his phone, “How much does a presidential roly cost?”

Travis: How much do you mean?

His pals: Thirty-doubts.

Travis: I could have bought a new boat, but that just didn't give me the money.

His pals: That's a good investment, right?

Travis: (pointing at the watch) This is worth 70? Yeah, you all tripped.

His pals: This is a good investment.

Travis: See me, don't expect these types of gifts from me. That ain't happening in my mind. These types of gifts ain't happening, not for me.

His pals: That's an investment, man.


Dov Kleiman captioned the X post: “Role Model: Travis Hunter says he would rather have a boat than the $30K Rolex watch his fiancé gifted him: “Y’all tripping. Don't expect these types of gifts from me. That ain't happening, my boy. These types of gifts ain't happening, not from me.” Hunter doesn't care for jewelry or partying ��”

Travis Hunter shared with Marca, "I don't like parties. I don't like doing nothing else but playing video games, football, chilling with the family...and fishing."

“Keep that mf in the box with all the paperwork and in great condition. 40 years, it might be worth a few hundred grand. Rolex is actually an investment.”

“He loves to fish. It's his happy place.”

“Dude likes fishing, gotta be a good guy!”

“who needs a watch when your phone is in your face constantly lol”

“Smart kid. He’s going to do well with his life and career”

“So look. He needs a financial advisor STAT.”

“Money can't buy happiness - but it can buy me a boat...��”

“The Rolex is a traditional watch , with a dial and hands. Hunter may not be able to read a non digital clock”





“All of a sudden I sort of like this kid now…”

“This kid is gonna be a star and it seems he will do good things with his money. I wish all athletes made the most of the opportunity that they bust their a**es for.”

“$30k won’t buy much of a boat.”

“Football aside... Travis Hunter > Shedeur Sanders”

“A Presidential appreciates over time, while a new boat loses > 30% its value by Year 5. But sure. Maybe a little financial literacy?”

“Doesnt care about jewelry or partying yet the f**ker wants a 250k boat…F**k outta here!”

“How did the fiancé even afford a $30k Rolex being in college”
