Catalogue Note

This watch was most likely presented to members of the All-Starr band by Ringo following their US tour in 1997, which was Jack's first with the group. The setlist featured Cream songs such as 'Sunshine of your Love' and 'White Room', alongside Jack's solo material including 'I Feel Free' and 'Theme for an Imaginary Western'. Speaking of his time as an "All-Starr", Jack observed, "It's nice to be a sideman every now and again" (Shapiro, Jack Bruce, p.260).
