Farmer Reunited with Rolex 50 Years After Believing Cow Ate It

James Steele's prized watch was found by a metal detectorist on his Shropshire land, decades after its disappearance.

James Steele lost his Rolex watch in the early 1970s and believed a cow might have eaten it.
A metal detectorist recently discovered the watch on Steele's property and returned it to him.
The watch, though discolored and non-functional, remains a cherished keepsake for Steele.
Steele praised the honesty of the metal detectorist and encouraged further searches on his land.
The watch's bracelet had broken, and only half of it was recovered along with the timepiece.
