American reality TV show actress, Kim Kardashian has splashed a whopping $380,000 on a Cartier watch which belonged to the former US First Lady, Jackie Kennedy.
TMZ reports that the rapper’s wife purchased the luxury time pieces at an auction sale.
The news source reported: “Kim Kardashian has a little Jackie Kennedy in her — or at least on her — because we found out she secretly bid on and won one of the legendary First Lady’s super-expensive timepieces. Auction sources tell us Christie’s expected the watch to pull in $120,000 … but Kim’s anonymous, winning bid was $379,500!
Jackie’s Cartier watch must have been acquired when she was First Lady — just months before JFK was assassinated. It’s engraved February 23, 1963. She got it as a gift from brother-in-law Prince Stanislaw “Stas” Radziwill.”
The recent display of wealth comes after the actress and mother of two vowed never to live the flashy lifestyle again especially after the October Paris robbery incident.
The watch however comes with no diamonds and boasts of a plain, understated design.
