NEW YORK (AP) –  A wristwatch that is believed to have been used to declare 
the time of President John F. Kennedy’s death is going on the auction block in 
New York City.

The 18-carat Patek Philippe timepiece is estimated to bring up to $150,000
at Christie’s on Dec. 17. The stopwatch (above) was made in 1948 and was 
purchased for Dr. Kemp Clark by his mother in Switzerland a year later for
$750.

Clark was one of several attending physicians at Parkland Memorial Hospital
in Dallas on Nov. 22, 1963, when president Kennedy entered the ER. He was
pronounced dead at 1 p.m. by referring to the watch, according to his family,
and signed the death certificate.

"There is endless debate among historians on the actual time of death and
there was most likely also a clock in the ER," said John Reardon, Christie’s
international co-head of watches. "However, the family and historians agree
to these facts: the watch was on his wrist that day and he called the time of
death and signed the death certificate."

A portion of the proceeds from the auction will be donated to the Red Cross.

Steve McQueen

(FoxNews) – No one will ever be as cool as Steve McQueen, but owning his Harley- 
Davidson might be the next best thing.

McQueen’s 1938 Harley WLD Solo Sport (above) will be sold at a Mecum Auctions
event in Anaheim, California. The bike still wears its original factory paint, and its 
odometer shows 21,000 miles.

The Harley’s pedigree is fully documented, including a certificate of authenticity
from McQueen’s 1984 estate sale. It also comes with a few of McQueen’s own
tools, which were found in a frame-mounted tool box when the bike was first
sold.

Coffee Woman”, in a number of television commercials for the
