Barron Trump made a rare public appearance in Manhattan over the weekend — and he wasn’t exactly keeping a low profile.
The youngest son of President Donald Trump was photographed Sunday afternoon arriving at Trump Tower alongside his mother, First Lady Melania Trump. But what really caught people’s attention? The luxury timepiece on his wrist — a gold Rolex Daytona, with a price tag that can soar north of $50,000.
The sighting comes just days after Barron celebrated his 19th birthday on March 20. Now a freshman at New York University, the youngest Trump has mostly stayed out of the media spotlight. Sunday marked his first time being photographed publicly in nearly a month — and he made it count.
Dressed casually but confidently, Barron’s appearance suggested a blend of classic Trump flair and youthful edge. His Rolex, often associated with status and high performance, was hard to miss and sparked immediate buzz online.
Though still a college student, Barron is already making waves beyond the classroom. He’s currently studying business at NYU, just a few miles from the family’s Midtown property. And despite his age, insiders say Barron is quietly carving out his own niche in the Trump orbit.
He’s reportedly been involved behind the scenes as an informal adviser to his father, particularly in the lead-up to the 2024 election. President Trump himself acknowledged Barron’s input during a recent interview with Fox News host Laura Ingraham, revealing his son plays a role in selecting media appearances and podcast interviews.

“He has an incredible knack for technology. Really sharp,” Trump said, applauding his son’s instincts and insight.
Barron’s interests go beyond politics. Sources close to the family say he’s especially intrigued by the cryptocurrency world — a space his father is warming up to, especially after announcing the creation of a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve earlier this month. Like his father, Barron also appears to have an eye on the real estate sector.
Having grown up in the White House from 2017 to 2021, Barron is no stranger to high-profile living — but since turning 18, his public presence has noticeably increased. While he has yet to take on the kind of public-facing roles embraced by his older siblings — such as Donald Jr. or Ivanka — many are watching closely to see how he steps into adulthood.
Whether he continues on the path of business, tech, or politics, one thing is clear: Barron Trump is starting to make his mark — and he’s doing it in style.
