Metal detector finds gold watch heirloom


Still Waters

Recommended Posts

A gold watch found in a west Wales field has been given to its owner's son 53 years after it went missing.

Metal detector enthusiast Martin Matthews came across the missing heirloom in Betws, Carmarthenshire, just months after taking up the hobby.

An inscription on the back showed it had been presented to local poet and author John Harries, who died just a year after receiving it in 1961.

I can only imagine the feeling of finding treasure is equivalent as Christmas morning. Good on the finder to return the watch to it's rightful lineage.
