First non-stop and non-refueled, around-the-world solo flight

Now that he will be left without a watch, Richard joked that he'll have to buy a new one and said: "I'll miss it a lot as it's my only watch." It was the only watch that Steve wore whilst flying around the globe in the Virgin Atlantic GlobalFlyer and he was glad he didn't have to use for any other reason than telling the time. "I didn't need your watch Richard and here it is back," Steve said as he handed it back to Richard.

Richard, with a smile, said the deadline for auction is April 1, which is of course April Fools' Day. That's only four weeks away, so if you want a chance of becoming its new owner get bidding now!

We are using eBay to handle the auction, and you can see full details of the watch, and how the auction is progressing when they are posted, by clicking this link.
