NEW YORK - Later this month Antiquorum in New York will auction a gold cased Vacheron Constantin watch that was given to Marlon Brando by Zsa Zsa Gabor in 1954 (estimate $3,000-$8,000). The classic watch bears a style of guilloche engraved dial decoration that you don't often see anymore. It is said that the watch was given to Brando by Gabor when "On The Waterfront" was released in theaters. The movie went on to win the Academy Award for Best Picture, as well as Best Actor for Brando.
