A guy that lives about a mile from me found a Rolex watch in the middle of the road working fine one day. He found it November and reported it to the local sheriff and did not hear anything until Dec.24 when I showed up at his door to claim it. I had put it on top of my car while working on it. Forgot. Took the kids to get ice cream and lost it. This was a gift from the company I worked for completing 15 years of employment with them. My name was engraved on the back and I guess he did not think of going to city hall to check the name out. I walked the roads every chance I got sick. I had put a sign at a local store about a lost watch. Christmas eve morning the phone rang and it was the sheriff asking if I had lost an expensive watch. I said yes and he said someone had called him and reported one. I said do you know their name and phone number and he said no. But I know where they live. I met him there. It was a good Christmas gift.
