You found it? I've been searching for that for the past three years.

Seriously, google Rolex and contact one of the RSC locations. Or better yet, you might contact the casino where you "found" the watch and ask if anyone has been looking for their missing Rolex. Or maybe you should have done the latter three years ago.

Three years I love this post.

During those three years I bet he could have spent five minutes on the street just asking strangers if it was real and got an accurate answer.

Best post ever.

What is best a custom Rolex or a Rolex that is stuck in custom?

It was me. I can identify the lost package. It was a "brown" paper bag.
