The sale represents the highest amount of money paid for a watch at auction - ever!

He gave it away because his wife bought him a new one.

It was a gift from Newman’s wife, one he only gave away because she had given him a new one. In many ways, it was a symbol of the lifelong love*and commitment Newman shared with his wife, actress Joanne Woodward.
