A consistently popular brand at auction, and they have managed to wow the crowd again by selling a chronograph for 11 million euros! \u00a0How could it possibly be worth that money some ask? The value is sourced from the rare perpetual calendar chronograph with moon phases, not to mention to unrivalled heritage. It is one of only four that exist, and the watch specialists claim to have waited\u00a0a lifetime to see one at auction so it was a very exciting event for them.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.superyachts.com\/luxury\/marilyn-monroe-blancpain-cocktail-watch-to-be-sold-at-auction-3962.htm\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-51739\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boatbookings.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/10823-marilyn-monroe-blancpain-cocktail-watch-to-be-sold-at-auction.jpg\" alt=\"10823-marilyn-monroe-blancpain-cocktail-watch-to-be-sold-at-auction\" width=\"584\" height=\"290\" \/><\/a>Marilyn Monroe, an iconic figure for many, has put\u00a0one of her possessions up for auction. This timeless accessory is an unparalleled watch with 71 diamonds and boasting two marquise diamonds! \u00a0The history of the watch is said to be a gift from her third husband, lucky for some! The feminine, sparkling and head turning piece is a marvel on its own, but being owned by Marilyn Monroe adds a whole new level of value to it.<\/p>\n<p>To keep in touch with luxury trends see our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/boatbookingsyachtcharter\/?ref=aymt_homepage_panel\"><strong>Facebook<\/strong><\/a>, or to organise a yacht charter <a href=\"https:\/\/www.boatbookings.com\/yachting_content\/custom_solution.php?bbr=bblog\"><strong>get in touch<\/strong><\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pondering over what you want on your Christmas list this year?
