The Patek Philippe was a 40th birthday gift to the former Beatle from his wife Ono before his assassination in 1980

The Patek Philippe watch, with an estimated value of $4.51 million, was a 40th birthday gift to the former Beatle from Japanese artist Ono in 1980, just two months before his assassination in New York.

At long last, Yoko Ono has won a legal case establishing that a watch once owned by her murdered husband, John Lennon, belongs to her, rather than to a private collector.
