Moon-Landed Rolex Watch Brings $131450 at Heritage Auctions
DALLAS, Oct. 9 /PRNewswire/ -- On the eve of an historic mission to the moon searching for potentially life sustaining water and nitrogen, Heritage Auctions conducted a $932,000 Space Exploration Auction, led by Apollo 17 Command Module Pilot Ron Evans' Rolex watch, which realized $131,450 , including 19.5% Buyer's Premium.

The handsome, all-original, 1968-era Rolex Oyster Perpetual GMT-Master was the personal watch of Apollo 17 Command Module Pilot Ron Evans. He placed it into his Personal Preference Kit (PPK) which was taken to the moon by crewmates Gene Cernan and Harrison Schmitt aboard the Lunar Module Challenger while he orbited the moon in the Command Module America . It remained on the moon for approximately 75 hours on what, to this day, was the last manned lunar landing mission.
"A price like this on a watch as special as this Rolex shows that the fascination with our original astronauts, and space program, still runs very deep," said Greg Rohan, President of Heritage Auctions. "Collectors also realize that artifacts of early NASA are in very finite supply. The first generation of astronauts was able to take pieces and parts of spacecraft with them, unlike today, where astronauts have to account for every nut and bolt."
