Miller Huggins, a Hall of famer and teammate, had the same ring and it sold in Mastro Auctions in 2007. With the juice, the ring sold for $170,000.00.

I had not heard of Ruth's ring in the hobby. I can't imagine what that would sell for.

The watch looks like a Patek Phillippe triple date? I think they sell new for around $50,000 in solid gold.

That watch is actually a Patek 2438 or possibly a 2498 - vintage perpetual calendars. Both are extremely rare and would bring upwards of $500K in auction.

500K for a vintage Patek?

I rather have a Wagner card (I hear he had one of these too)

FWIW, I would prefer to have a Wagner also.

Bill- with each of your posts you are sounding more and more like Charlie Sheen himself.

Kevin- it's hard for me to conceive that a 500K wristwatch even exists. I mean, all it does is tell time. I bet neither Bill Gates or Warren Buffett would ever spend that much for a watch. That's just insane.

I'm sure watch collectors would think similarly about a baseball card.

I think similarly too. I think paying 500K for a baseball card is equally nuts...except if I happen to be selling it.

That's an interesting observation Barry.

Rather than further respond to one particular poster in this thread I will just follow the first Mark Twain quote in my signature file.
The quote is not referring to all the posters on this thread, just one in particular.
I just know I would rather have spent one day with Mark Twain than a lifetime with Charlie Sheen.
Sheen's demons are way too much for me.

Default OC's
Oc`s as addicts call them are out of your system in 2 to 3 days ...so you can be tested once a week and "fool the system"...... that might very well be happening in Charlies case........ BAD Stuff....

The thing is, is if your taking OC's you can't stop taking them for 2 or 3 days. If you are addicted to Oxy you are taking it multiple times a day, every day. If you stop taking them for 2 or 3 days you aren't getting out of bed (or off the bathroom floor).
