JAKARTA - The price of the watch for the leader of the world Catholic, Pope Francis, is astonishing. As a leader of about 1.3 billion people worldwide, it turns out that Pope Francis' watch price is only around Rp. 200,000.

A Catholic cleric romo Josep Susanto was amazed by the watch worn by Pope Francis.

"Admittedly the watch worn by the Pope. Not a magrong-magrong European watch, but the Casao watch, the MQ 24 7B2 series, which costs IDR 200,000," wrote Josep Susanto on his Instagram, Tuesday, August 3.

In various e-commerce in Indonesia, the cheapest price for the Casio watch for the 24 7B MQ series is around Rp. 141,000. There are also those who sell above Rp. 200,000.

Pope Francis is known as a very simple man. When he arrived in Indonesia, he did not take a luxury car. This Argentine man chose the Toyota Innova Zenix Hybrid EV. The price of the Innova Zenix Hybrid EV is the cheapest IDR 477 million and the most expensive is IDR 630.6 million.

During his visit to Indonesia, Pope Francis did not stay at the hotel, but at the Vatican Embassy.
