One of his expeditions was in 2000, when he joined the Bluebird project to locate and recover the body of the world water-speed record holder Donald Campbell from Coniston Water.

 In 2003, film director James Cameron invited him to join the team to dive to the wreck of Titanic as part of a Discovery Channel expedition. Spencer acted as a research diver for the project and laid the groundwork for the television documentary “Return to Titanic”.

The same year saw another famous dive to the Titanic’s sister ship the Britannic, a hospital ship used in the First World War that was sunk off the Greek coast in 1915. It was Spencer who uncovered evidence that the ship had been sunk by a mine rather than a torpedo – a question which had long divided historians.

In 2007, he also joined the team that dived on the wreck of the R.M.S Cunard Carpathia – the ship that went to the rescue of the Titanic. This made him along with the last surviving Titanic member, one of only two people to have seen both ships.

Tragically in 2009, Spencer lost his life while diving back on HMHS Britannic. He was hoping to explore unseen parts of the ship.

Stephen Whittaker, Managing Director at Fellows Auctioneers said: “Carl Spencer was a world famous local diver and this collection shows some of the remarkable dives that he took part in.”

Spencer’s Rolex Sea Dweller will feature as lot 225 with an estimate of £3,000 – £4,000. Two limited edition Doxa diving watches, also belonging to the deep-wreck diver, will be auctioned in the upcoming sale and will feature as lots 49 and 50 both with estimates of £1,000 – £1,500. Alongside these impressive watches will be memorabilia items from the wreck site of R.M.S Carpathia, Donald Campbell’s Bluebird and the Titanic, which will see the 100^th Anniversary of its sinking in April 2012.

The Vintage & Modern Wrist Watch auction will contain over 250 lots and will take place on Monday 23^rd January at 10am.

The Bitters ’n Twisted Cocktail Trail offers thirsty drinkers the chance to collect four stamps in each of the city centre venues: Bodega, The Jekyll & Hyde, Island Bar, The Victoria or The Rose Villa Tavern in the Jewellery Quarter.  Once a card has four stamps from four different venues, the fifth venue will offer completed card-holders a hand-crafted cocktail on the house, gratis, completely free.

Matt Scriven, director of Bitters ’n Twisted, said; “Once the hustle and bustle of the festive season passes those nasty January blues can kick in – give them the boot with a tasty cocktail on us! People can reward themselves however they choose to, we serve a range of drinks from the saintly “skinny” style cocktail to a list of more sinful, decadent creations.  We encourage people to strike up a conversation with our talented team to discuss what drink they would like to enjoy while collecting stamps to earn a post Christmas present”

The Bitters’n’Twisted Cocktail Trail runs throughout the whole of January.  Only one stamp per venue per cocktail and multiple stamps will not be given out to fill a card at one venue.  There is no limit to which cocktails are purchased or how many cards can be filled out and exchanged during the month.
