Hitler’s Watch Sells For $1.1m In Controversial Sale – St. Lucia Times News

An open letter signed by 34 Jewish leaders described the sale as “abhorrent” and called on the Nazi items to be pulled from the auction.

Rabbi Menachem Margolin, chairman of the European Jewish Association said the transaction gave “succour to those who idealise what the Nazi party stood for”.

“Whilst it is obvious that the lessons of history need to be learned – and legitimate Nazi artefacts do belong in museums or places of higher learning – the items that you are selling clearly do not,” he wrote.

Talking to German press before the sale, Alexander Historical Auctions said that its aim was to preserve history, and that most sold items are kept in private collections or donated to Holocaust museums.

“Whether good or bad history, it must be preserved,” Senior Vice President Mindy Greenstein told Deutsche Welle. “If you destroy history, there is no proof that it happened”.

Documents supplied by the auction house state that it cannot provide proof that Hitler actually wore the watch. But an appraisal by an independent specialist concluded that it “in all likelihood” belonged to him.

Despite the watch fetching over $1m it fell short of the auction house’s $2m to $4m estimate, Deutsche Welle reported.

El Servicio Nacional de Meteorología informó que la principal amenaza de hoy son los índices de calor por encima de lo normal que podrían alcanzar hasta cerca de 110 grados. Por tal razón, una Advertencia de Calor está vigente para las áreas costeras y urbanas del Norte de Puerto Rico, donde las temperaturas máximas durante el día podrían alcanzar los altos 80 a bajos 90 grados.

Una capa de aire del Sahara y una masa de aire más seco asociada mantendrán condiciones de buen tiempo y cielo brumoso hoy. Sin embargo, aunque limitado, se esperan aguaceros y un posible desarrollo de tronadas aisladas sobre los sectores más al Oeste de la isla, donde es probable la acumulación de agua en las carreteras y las áreas con drenaje deficiente.

Los vientos permanecerán del Este-Noreste, aumentando hasta alrededor de 20 mph con ráfagas más fuertes y variaciones de la brisa marina.

Las condiciones marítimas han mejorado, pero continúan picadas a través de las aguas del Caribe, las aguas costeras y los pasajes locales. Se esperan vientos de hasta 20 nudos y oleaje de hasta 6 pies. Existe un riesgo alto de corrientes marinas para las playas de la costa Noroeste de Puerto Rico. Se mantiene un riesgo moderado para la mayoría de las playas restantes.
