Imagine finding a really expensive watch, worth over €14,000! Someone in Kerry found a Rolex in Killarney; it’s an Oyster Perpetual Sea-Dweller model.

The person handed it to the police, who now want to find the owner. This watch isn’t your average timepiece, as it has features for specific jobs. Scuba divers and oil rig workers might use it.

It’s waterproof up to 3,900 meters deep. That’s like stacking four mountains to keep water out! The watch resists scratches and has glowing markers for darkness.

The bezel helps divers track their time underwater. The case uses tough steel and ceramic, which makes the watch quite valuable. The finder might not know its exact worth, but they likely knew it was expensive.

People who hand in lost items may get a reward. Police keep items for a year and a day. Then, they offer it to the finder, but some items are destroyed instead. Cameras are destroyed for privacy.

To claim it, you need proper proof. A photo won’t work; the police need a certificate or receipt. If it’s yours, gather your proof because, in a year, it may belong to someone else.
