In his will, John Astor left Madeleine an outright sum of $100,000. In addition, he bequeathed to her the income from a trust fund of $5 million and the use during her life of the house on Fifth Avenue. Both of these latter provisions she would lose if she remarried. A fund of $3 million was set aside for his unborn child John Jacob Astor VI which he would control when he became of age.[14]

Baguettes can exist on link a sliding scale of opulence.

Birthday-related narcissism aside I am very excited to see one of these link new dive-GMTs in the metal as it feels like the sort of watch folks have been link asking Seiko to make for quite some time. Expect more as soon as I can get my hands link on one.
