Record
Stas Radziwill gave this Tank to Jacqueline Kennedy in February 1963; its engraving records the times of a 50-mile hike connected with President Kennedy’s fitness initiative. Christie’s sold it on 21 June 2017 for $379,500, and Kim Kardashian later publicly identified herself as the buyer. The object is individually identifiable rather than merely an example of its model, which is important for Arcarel’s object-level record. The cited Christie's source supplies the key provenance, event or institutional facts used here. No unnamed buyer or owner has been inferred, and fields not established by the source are left blank. Its significance comes from the combination of the physical watch and the documented people, events, institutions or market history attached to this specific specimen.
