Wow, glad you got the watch back and a big

to the honest person who found it.

Still amazed you didn't notice earlier it was missing. The amount of times you look down at your hands during a round of golf I would have thought you'd spot it straight away.

My exact thoughts. Nato's never struck me as a safe alternative. Plus I dont care for the way they look. You original bracelet should keep it nice and secure from now on.

lucky you.

jpdjpd17 · 24 April 2018, 10:12 PM

Amazing luck.. the chance of finding that in the rough before it got run over.. Miquel restores my faith in honest people.l...

What a nice and honest guy the finder was and is - nice touch with the gift card.

dafuture · 24 April 2018, 11:09 PM

Glad you were able to find it!

watchwatcher · 24 April 2018, 11:21 PM

Awesome...glad it worked out for you.

Ripcode · 24 April 2018, 11:39 PM

You are lucky and it's good that honesty still prevails!

AEC · 25 April 2018, 12:01 AM

Awesome! I'm glad you got your watch back. What were you doing in the rough, anyhow?

asubabove · 25 April 2018, 12:01 AM

Great story, glad it was a happy ending. But how in the world do you not notice a GMTII suddenly not on your wrist?

T01 · 25 April 2018, 12:02 AM

Wow, that is insane luck.

Calatrava r · 25 April 2018, 12:07 AM

An old thread, but why wear any watch to play golf. Just a distraction to me. No matter what the brand the jarring and quick torque motions/sudden stops on the ground by the clubhead cannot be good for the movement.

fskywalker · 25 April 2018, 12:23 AM

Congrats! There is still some honest people left!

WEST HAM ROLEX · 25 April 2018, 12:25 AM

The rough is so deep on my course at the moment I lost my bag

Your watch,,,,Well done - good news look after it

Psijason · 25 April 2018, 12:35 AM

Amen! So glad they were stand up guys. Beautiful watch!!!

dysondiver · 25 April 2018, 12:43 AM

kultschar · 25 April 2018, 12:58 AM

Looks a zillion times better on the bracelet!!

Glad it was found!

I give thanks for the honesty, and integrity, of the gentleman who found your watch. Unfortunately, I believe that many people would have viewed this as “their lucky day!”

And remember.... Keep you head down. Swing through the ball. And make sure your watch is still on your wrist!

Why were you in the rough?

Robs · 25 April 2018, 02:20 AM

Thats amazing!!

Boaters · 25 April 2018, 02:39 AM

Great story you are one lucky guy!

GodZji · 25 April 2018, 02:46 AM

No Nato for my watch from now on. Thanks for sharing. Great ending!!

I once knocked a watch clean off the nato while carrying a box through a doorway. It must have been a precise hit as both springbars failed. Fortunately, the watch was only a little scratched. Runs perfect.

DonBateman · 25 April 2018, 01:01 PM

Cool story! Looks better on the bracelet anyway!

Justindo · 25 April 2018, 01:08 PM

What a great ending to your story. It's always uplifting to hear about good people doing good things today when the alternative would be so easy.

arosado · 26 April 2018, 01:32 AM

Yes, there's still a lot of good people in this country!!!

MinMay · 26 April 2018, 01:34 AM

I would not have gone home without the watch. I would have walked 100 holes to find it. :)

mementomori1983 · 26 April 2018, 04:28 AM

Worked out perfectly. Kudos to the staff for their integrity and to you for the nice gesture to the staff. Thumbs up!
