A gold watch belonging to John Jacob Astor, the wealthiest passenger on the Titanic, was sold for £1.17 million ($1.46 million) at an auction in England, setting a record for the highest amount ever fetched by an item associated with the 1912 tragedy. The watch, engraved with "JJA," was recovered from Astor's personal effects after his death on the Titanic, where he ensured his wife's safety before perishing in the disaster. The auction also featured other Titanic-related items, including a violin case that belonged to the orchestra leader. Read The Rest at :
