‘Holy Grail’ Apollo 11 Moonwatch Goes Under the Hammer
When sci-fi author J.G. Ballard suggested that the moon landings had exhausted the public appetite for space exploration, he couldn’t have been more wrong. Check out the figure that astronaut Michael Collins’ solid gold commemorative Omega Speedmaster recently fetched. It went for an eyewatering USD $765,000 – proof that we still love anything to do with that era. And for once, this rare watch didn’t end up in Omega’s famed museum. Instead, it will take centre stage in a private collection making the huge price tag even more notable. – reports ManofMany.com
