How Lucky Can One Guy Be

What would you do if you discovered a Rolex worth 20,000 pounds (equivalent to $26,446.00 in American dollars) in a drain? Now--what would you do if you found three more? It`s not impossible, as Arron Large, a street cleaner in London, discovered on Saturday the 18th when he found a total of 4 designer watches down a drain.

All of the timepieces were discovered in drains opposite from the Chalkwell railway station in Essex. The street cleaner, who earns on average what just one of these watches are worth, may be in for a payment of 60,000 pounds ($79,338.00 USD) for his honesty if nobody claims the valued timepieces. Among the watches found were a Rolex, an Omega, and a Franck Muller, which is what has authorities baffled. Police Constable Patrick Soontorn of the Essex Police commented, ``to find one watch in a drain is one thing. To find three more within feet of one another is another, so that`s part of our investigation.`` Police are still investigating as to whether or not these watches are linked to any previous thefts in the area by comparing the serial numbers of the watches against crime records.
