Lot 76 (Original omega Apollo 11 LE watch 1969-1973)was the one I was interested in but no takers at $9000.

Will be interesting to see what the Patek Philippe star sky moon tourbillion goes for. Estimated at $1,000,000 to $1,300,000

Really don't get why they're worth that much!

LOT 527 for those of you as bored as me

Surprised at the Ghandi lot, considering how much Einstein's watch sold for....$596k

I find it ironic that the watch of a great man who rejected material goods and wealth went for $2 million. I think that he'd be ashamed.

I was all excited and ready to bid on the Gandhi Lot amongst others, I was sure it was worth more than £20k! Other people had the same idea and bigger pockets.

I bid on a couple of other lots buts no success. fees and VAT, duty means it is difficult to buy in the US.

I might slip a cheeky bid in for 75, Omega Speedymoon Skeleton, v nice!
