“When I was about to leave the chalet, I realized where was my watch? I had lost it and I freaked out. I was like oh my God, so I went up the hill again and couldn’t find it, went back down and asked the concierge, and they haven’t seen it either. So I was like you know what, I’ll just go to the police station and report that it has been lost. At the police station I say ‘Ma’am I want to report my watch missing, I’ve lost it’. She’s like ‘what color is it?’ I said ‘silver, black face’. And she’s like ‘oh, whats the brand name?’ I said ‘Breitling’. She said ‘oh, ok, is this your watch?’
‘I was like oh my God I can’t believe somebody found it and returned it. I was so happy. And if you picked this up you’d know it was expensive – its heavy, its got weight, and it goes for USD 10,000 a watch. So I was very happy about that. Apparently an employee from the chalet found it in the eating area, in the cafeteria. So I guess maybe when I fell down it must have loosened the buckle, then when I was taking off my jacket and gloves it must have fallen off.
I asked if I could meet the employee, but they don’t remember who the person was. I’m extremely thankful for the person, and I would have given him a reward, at least bought him lunch! And it is nice to know there are still those kind of people in the world.
