    A gold Omega watch presented to the first man to step onto the Moon, Neil Armstrong, has sold for a record breaking $2.125 million USD / €1.876 million euros
    The 18K gold 'Tribute to Astronauts' Speedmaster Pro was presented to Armstrong in November 1969.
    That was four months after he stepped out of the lunar module of the Apollo 11 mission on July 20 and spoke the words: “ A small step for man, a giant leap for mankind.”
    His watch is now the most expensive Speedmaster in history after dozens of online bids. The sale ended on. April 17.
    Half of the hammer price from this historic auction will be donated to charities selected by Neil's son, Mark Armstrong.
    He said "This watch, which my father liked to wear on special occasions, symbolises one of the most remarkable achievements in the history of mankind.”
    The watch was presented to Armstrong, who died aged 82 in 2012, at a special gala dinner in Houston.
    Omega initially created 26 of the gold commemorative watches—known as the ‘Tribute to Astronauts’ watch—to present to NASA astronauts alive and deceased.

    Pictures must credit: RR Auction Previously unknown footage of President John F. Kennedy moments after being shot in a motorcade has been snapped up at auction.. The 8 mm colour film was sold by the grandson of the bystander in Dallas Texas, who took it, truck driver Dale Carpenter. The film sold for $137,500 USD / €123.600 euros at US sale room RR Auctions on September 28. Carpenter’s silent footage from November 22, 1963, shows the only known footage of the motorcade post-shooting as it raced the fatally wounded president to hospital. The footage is 40 seconds long with the last 10 containing the post-assassination scenes. The final price exceeded RR's pre-auction estimate of $100,000. The winning bidder acquired full copyright ownership and interest in the film subject to an existing non-exclusive licensing agreement that expires on March 5, 2025. It allows the footage to be used in an upcoming film about Secret Service Agent Clint Hill who is seen on the clip bending his body over the stricken JFK and first lady Jackie Kennedy.

    A rusted master key from the doomed liner Titanic, salvaged from the body of a steward who perished in the sinking has sold for $131,250 USD / €122.990 euros at auction.

    The price was just under a third more that the $100,000 USD / €93.710 euros pre-sale estimate,

    The key belonged to 1st class saloon steward Alfred Arnold Deeble and was a skeleton type, able to access many locked rooms to save having to carry huge bunches of keys around.

    His body was found by a cable-laying ship that recovered many of the bodies from the April 1912 disaster which claimed just under 1,500 lives.

    Deeble was known on board as a “pantryman” and the key still bears the title on a brass fob.

    His body was found on an iceberg in the aftermath of the sinking and taken to Nova Scotia to be buried.

    Later, his US-based sister, Lily, wrote to Titanic owners White Star Line in Southampton , in the UK, to ask for his belongings.

    Lily was engaged to John Herbert Strugnell, who was also a Titanic steward and perished in the sinking.

    OPS: The Titanic key lot which sold also includes two portraits , shown here, of John Herbert Strugnell, a fellow Titanic saloon steward who also perished in the accident, and the fiancé of Lily Florence Deeble. One of the portraits was signed in ink shortly before the disaster, "Yours very affectionately, Jack, 1912." Strugnell's body was never identified.

    A rusted master key from the doomed liner Titanic, salvaged from the body of a steward who perished in the sinking, is set to fetch $100,000 USD at auction,

    The key belonged to 1st class saloon steward Alfred Arnold Deeble and was a skeleton type, able to access many locked rooms to save having to carry huge bunches of keys around.

    His body was found by a cable-laying ship that recovered many of the bodies from the April 1912 disaster which claimed just under 1,500 lives.

    Deeble was known on board as a “pantryman” and the key still bears the title on a brass fob.

    His body was found on an iceberg in the aftermath of the sinking and taken to Nova Scotia to be buried.

    Later, his US-based sister, Lily, wrote to Titanic owners White Star Line in Southampton , in the UK, to ask for his belongings.

    They included the master key which is being sold by US auction house RR Auction

    An Apple computer company cheque issued from the firm’s first ever cheque book, has sold for $108,209 USD / €100.360 euros at auction — more than twice its estimate.

    The cheque was signed by founder Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak and issued in 1976 from a temporary cheque from a recently opened bank account.

    It was for payment to a printed circuit board company and made just days before the two founders officially made their partnership agreement.
    The item was marked as cheque "No. 2," just as the first ever company computer, the Apple-1, came into existence
    It was made out for $116.97 to Ramlor, Inc.—a Palo Alto-area printed circuit board maker—likely represents payment for boards affiliated with the first Apple-1 Computers.
    The Wells Fargo bank cheque is dated March 19, 1976.
    At the time Apple was still operating out of the Jobs family garage. ??The official founding of Apple Computer, Inc. happened on April 1, 1976, 13 days after the cheque was written.

    OPS: At the same auction, an Apple-1 computer signed by Steve Wozniak sold for $178,816 USD / €165.850 euros.
    The still fully operational computer was complete in a handmade period case with built-in keyboard
    Wozniak’s signature, "Woz," shown here, signed in 2017.
