Francis Ford Coppola Auctions Watch After 'Megalopolis' Failure
Francis Ford Coppola, the director of 'The Godfather,' is selling some of his watches.
This is happening because his new movie, 'Megalopolis,' cost a lot of money to make but didn't earn much back.
He's selling seven watches, with the most special one being a unique watch with a hand that shows the time.
This watch is expected to sell for over a million dollars.
The auction will happen on December 6th and 7th and is meant to help him recover some of the money he spent on his movie.
Francis Ford Coppola is auctioning off a collection of his watches.
The auction includes a custom-made F.P. Journe FFC Prototype watch.
The watch is estimated to sell for over $1 million.
The auction is taking place on December 6th and 7th.
The sale may help offset losses from Coppola's film 'Megalopolis'.
