A pocket watch frozen in time at the moment its owner sank with the Titanic has been sold for $175,000. The watch belonged to postal clerk Oscar Scott Woody and was recovered from the chilly depths of the Atlantic Ocean, the BBC reports.One month after the doomed ship went down on April 14, 1912, the watch was returned to his wife Leila. It was sold on Saturday by British auction house, Henry Aldridge & Sons along with several other items connected to the Titanic.
The two-metre fossil is about 76 million years old and still has most of the external skull bones and numerous teeth, Sotheby's experts said. Auctioneers expect the medal to be popular at auction due to Sydney Olympic medals being relatively rare on the market.
