I was jogging in a park and i found a Rolex watch in the grass. There is no lost and found at the park or no park ranger service, its just an open park, people run, walk dogs, bask in the sun.

In a situation like i found myself in earlier today, is it just a classic case of finders keepers?

Wow this one is almost as intersting as your other 12.

If there's no lost and found then how can you do anything about it? I think you need to go put it back exactly where you found it incase the owner comes back.​

But what if a hot (straight) guy owns it and hunts him down for it?

Wow what a twist, i never thought of that.

I started this thread because of the watch but, what about stuff in general you may find on the street or wherever?

If there is no lost and found, whats to be done ?

Interesting

I found a car on the street once. The cop's told me I wasn't supposed to take it though. I thought someone lost it. They left the keys in it and everything.

interesting.
 
^ lol there goes common sense. Maybe you dropped yours on the road and someone picked it up.
 
What I would do is to take it to the police and report where I found it. Sorry, but for me this is a no brainer.....
 
Also, there is the very real possibility that this could be from a mugging or a robbery. Possession of stolen property is not something that is to be taken lightly. You really do not know the circumstance under which this Rolex wound up where it did.
 
you could borrow a ton of money, go to law school, study property law, and then determine if it qualifies as "abandoned property." ;)
 
Send it to me!

Like others suggested, find a REPUTABLE dealer to trace the serial #, then find the owner yourself (hoping he's gorgeous and interested in giving more than one "reward")

Don't intend on keeping it as if the Watch Fairy had left it under your pillow. Even if you don't believe in karma --- the longest arm of the law --- you never know if it would connect you to a crime.

You just have to take the serial #, not the watch itself. I would not want to be walking around with a Rolex that someone else was missing. Say for the record that you found it and want to be sure the rightful owner gets it back.

If you get any flack, claim you left it in the custody of a lawyer girlfriend, and that the dealer could either help out with the return or become accessory to theft and reported to the Amighty Pooh-Bah of the Rolex Clan.

Personally, I wouldn't trust a police officer any more than anyone else. Just because someone wears a badge doesn't give him magical powers to overcome human greed.

Turning it into the police would also mean that you wouldn't be able to meet Mr. Watchless Hottie face to face when he reclaimed it.
 
Too bad the guy who owned the watch wasn't still in it, then you could have claimed you found him and take him home, too...

But seriously, you should take the watch to the police and tell them where you found it. They have ways of tracking down the owner, since they deal with lost and stolen property all the time...
 
When you find something in the park, the value of the object should determine your course of action; and to help you determine the course of action, you try to put yourself in the shoes of the Other Guy... this is called empathy and is what separates us from the animals (along with our ability to accessorize).

So let's say that you are jogging in the park, and when you get home you discover that your incredibly expensive watch (which has great sentimental as well as real value to you) has fallen off your wrist. You go back to the park and crawl around on all fours searching for it... but it's gone! Someone picked it up! Oh no!

What would you want the finder of that watch to do?

Now, as you are the finder of the watch, do that.

On the other hand, let's say you were jogging in the park and you lost your Hello Kitty Timex watch. It was cheap and easily replaced, so you probably wouldn't even bother going back to look for it. You just hope whoever finds it enjoys it.

Such a thing as that you can keep without worrying about it. I guess I'm saying that Finders Keepers really only operates as a moral excuse for objects of less than fifty dollars' value.

In this case, since the object in question is worth thousands, I think you know what you have to do. Morally and legally, you must exercise due dilligence in tracking down the rightful owner of found property before you can claim it as your own.
