My uncle had a Fauxlex watch. He used to say to me if I didn't have Fauxlex by the age of 50, I would have failed in life. He thought that the Fauxlex (label) represented success, wealth and progress. He thought his watch was a (eternal) classic and that a stylish man as himself was (deserving) of a stylish Fauxlex watch. I never liked my uncle and thought he was as (ostentatious) as his watch. It was no surprise when I found out his watch was a fake.

1 brand: A "brand" is a collective term for the name, trademark, slogan and image associated with a manufacturer and its products. In the dialogue, Bruno talks about "luxury brand like ours": he means that Delavigne Corp is a prestige label that is associated with luxury, high quality or high price.
2 timeless: The term "timeless" is used to refer to items which are "classics" or will not "date" or "go out of fashion" quickly. It shares a similar meaning with the terms "eternal", "ageless" and "enduring".
3 worthy: To "be worthy of (something)" is to "deserve" or "merit" it, for example: Tom Tanks performance of a homosexual autistic alien was worthy of an Oscar. In the audio Bruno says "A gold logo is worthy of a luxury brand like ours", meaning that a gold logo merits a luxury mark like Delavigne. This is slightly unnatural, it would be more logical to say that "Delavigne (a luxury brand like ours) is worthy of a gold logo".
4 flashy: The adjective "flashy" describes something that is cheap, showy, tasteless or ostentatious. Susie says that some people will think the logo is "flashy", meaning that a gold logo may be regarded as colourful in a vulgar way. Other synonyms for "flashy" are: gaudy, garish and showy.
