Amir Noorani purposely did not test the first-generation Apple Watch Ultra. He lost his watch while swimming in Lake Travis in Austin, USA. The Apple Watch Ultra band is designed not to be easily removed, but in this case, Noorani was wearing a silicone band that didn’t keep the watch on her wrist. But this story still had a happy ending.

Works!

While the man was about 30 feet underwater, the strap broke and the Apple Watch drowned in the lake. Noorani tried to find the watch immediately after it disappeared, but had no luck. Eventually he even hired a scuba diver, but he couldn’t do anything either. With nothing else to do, Noorani enabled Lost Mode on her Apple Watch using the Find My app on her iPhone. This way, the Apple Watch showed the message to anyone who could find it later.

Surprisingly, someone found Noorani’s missing Apple Watch, but Not in a few days, but in three months.

Three months later I received a call saying the watch had been found. I live in Los Angeles but my brother was able to meet the diver and buy the watch.
