Steve Jobs’s Seiko 6431-6030 Wristwatch

Steve Jobs wore this simple white-dial Seiko in the 1980s; Heritage described its leather strap as heavily worn and recorded its case markings. Jobs’s longtime house manager Mark Sheff consigned it with a letter of authenticity, and Heritage sold it on 20 February 2016 for $42,500. The object is individually identifiable rather than merely an example of its model, which is important for Arcarel’s object-level record. The cited Heritage Auctions 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.
