We've just found out that a quartz Seiko watch from the 1980s, that was owned and worn by Steve Jobs, just sold at auction for $42,500 – and we'd bet cash money that's the highest price anyone has ever paid for a simple quartz Seiko reference 6431-6030. The sale was part of an auction that included several other pieces of Steve Jobs memorabilia, authenticated by his long-time house manager, Mr. Mark Sheff (a letter of authenticity is also included). 1 OF 4 ADVERTISEMENT The watch itself is pretty much as unremarkable as a watch can get: an inexpensive quartz Seiko that Jobs, if the condition of the strap is any indication, bought and then wore daily, probably without giving it a lot of thought.

strange bracelet squeak (not what you think)
So it's not my first post, or watch or whatever. I've experienced and enjoyed the infamous bracelet squeak a many times. But I just got my 116610LV back from service, after about three years of regular daily type wear. I have no idea what they did, but the bracelet squeak is back It's no where near as loud and prevalent as a brand new watch, but it's there.Weird! You think it's just from a really deep cleaning? They didn't polish the watch btw.More about the service if you're interested.
