It is said that time is invaluable. Not watches though.
An Omega Speedmaster chronograph, previously owned and worn by Nasa astronaut Walter “Wally” Schirra, has sold at RR Auction for US$1,907,000 (approximately RM9mil). The BA 145.022 model in 18K yellow gold is of particular historic value, and according to Omega, represents an "enduring connection to the achievements of space exploration".
