This opportunity may not seem significant to the cellphone-toting masses who think of mechanical wristwatches as anachronistic devices once used by their grandparents to tell time. But to the swelling legions of watch geeks worldwide who think of vintage timepieces as fine art, a Paul Newman [Rolex] Daytona is the one watch that seemingly every self-respecting collector needs to own



Newman's 1968 model was a gift from Joanne Woodward, his wife of 50 years, when the actor became consumed with auto racing. The back was engraved, "Drive Carefully Me."

In 1984 Newman later gave the watch to an old-time friend of his, who has used it for a long time before realizing he was had something valuable 8 or 9 years ago.  The watch has been sought after for years, but the friend just quietly sat on it.



Now it's going to auction, where it may possibly realize USD10 million or more.



Not a bad payoff!!

I like the old time pieces on a chain with a cover over the watch part.



Men put in them in their breast pocket.
