In an amazing twist of fate, Australian surfer Matt Cuddihy discovered a vintage Rolex Submariner off the coast of Noosa, Queensland, in 2023. Despite being submerged underwater for about four years, the iconic watch was still ticking!
After sharing his discovery on social media, Matt was able to track down the owner, Ric Outrim, who had lost it in 2019. The watch, engraved with “R. Outrim, Presented 1971,” held deep sentimental value. Rolex later restored it to its original condition.
This incredible find forged a lasting bond between Matt and Ric, and they plan to return to the spot together. An unforgettable story of adventure, friendship, and a priceless recovery!
