Man I love a happy ending.

Do yourself a favor and pick out your favorite color G-shock now for those "physical" activities.

Wow, fantastic! Mums are indeed priceless, as we already knew. Please wear a beater from now on when shoveling

Was there a screw from a link missing, a pin from the clasp? Or was it just a case of the the clasp coming open?

That's so awesome it was found! I lost my DJ36 almost 20 years ago, I still think about that watch.

Wow, absolutely fantastic news! I thought for sure you would never see the watch again. I think you should buy your Mom a ladies Datejust as a 'thank you' gift.

I kept coming back to this thread hoping for such a good news.

With such a fantastic story, you’ll now enjoy your watch even more.

Congratulations!

I'm very curious what part failed. I've seen some posts about a known issue being the pin between the SEL and the first link. It looks like a mini springbar.

But jeez, what a relief! Congrats on finding your watch!
