The search for former President Donald Trump's "Swiss-made" watch origins led investigative reporters to a retailer of "Male Enhancement" honey, laced with Viagra, whose spokesperson was instructed to keep his mouth shut until after Election Day.

CNN's investigation into the $100,000 Trump watch did not lead to Switzerland, but a Wyoming shopping center home to dozens of anonymous businesses, among them TheBestWatchesOnEarth LLC and the Royal Honey Shop, which refers to itself on X as The Best Honey On Earth LLC.

"A spokesperson for the honey seller, Vladimir Dmitriev, called it 'a highly reputable company,' but declined to respond to a list of questions," CNN reported.

"Though none of the questions mentioned Trump, Dmitriev told CNN, 'We’ve received direction from our leadership in the US not to engage with any news agencies (specifically CNN) until after November 5th,' which is Election Day."

Investigative reporters Steve Contorno and Scott Glover noted they was unable to find documentation of a direct link between Trump and the Royal Honey Shop.

When asked in a follow-up email about any Trump ties, a Royal Honey Shop representative reportedly responded the company “cannot provide any information or details at this time.”

CNN was able to link Trump's watches to TheBestWatchesOnEarth LLC, as the name appears on the Trump Watch website.

Other businesses that share an address in the Wyoming shopping center include a limited liability corporation selling Trump-themed sneakers via a licensing agreement with the Republican presidential nominee, according to the report.

The Royal Honey Shop is registered in Wyoming as Kingdom Honey LLC and markets products online that include a gold-wrapped Royal Honey VIP, Black Bull Honey and Hard Steel Honey that promises "instant vigor with a single sachet."

The Food and Drug Administration has warned people not to consume certain Royal Honey products that contain the active ingredient in Viagra and could adversely interact with other medications.

Both BestWatchesOnEarth and Kingdom Honey share an organizer who specializes in creating anonymous companies to shield personal information from the public, Andrew Pierce, according to state records and the report.

Carol Mendelsohn, chief marketing officer for Pierce’s company, told CNN in an email they are the registered agents for Trump-related companies but noted they work with 100,000 businesses around the world.

Pierce’s father and business partner Mark told CNN over telephone he was unaware two of their clients did business with Trump.

“If Mr. Trump or anyone in his family were on the same side of the street I was on,” Mark Pierce told CNN, “I would cross the street.”
