Auction of Lafayette's watch

 A gold pocketwatch belonging to Lafayette was sold by Freeman's in Philadelphia on 12th November. The price fetched,  $44,800, was generally considered disappointing - "rather less than a cheap Rolex".


Golden pocket watch owned by America's 'honorary Founding Father' sells for LESS than a cheap Rolex

(No doubt the watch will soon be re-auctioned for a handsome profit!)
