[h=1]Pocket watch recovered from the Titanic is going up for auction[/h]
A pocket watch rescued from the wreckage of the Titanic is expected to fetch $20,000 at auction.
The timepiece belonged to Sinai Kantor, a 34-year-old Russian furrier who died when the ship sank on April 12, 1912.
His wife, Miriam, escaped on a lifeboat -- the last to reach the rescue ship RMS Carpathia, according to SWNS.
