A gold Rolex watch believed to have been given by Marilyn Monroe to the late United States President John Kennedy, inscribed "Jack with love as always Marilyn May 29th 1962", has been sold for US$120,000 ($172,321) at auction.
The watch was sold with a poem called A Heartfelt Plea On Your Birthday, typed in black on paper placed at the bottom of the gold case containing the watch. The two are rumoured to have had an affair about that time.
