And it’s still working… I don’t think Rolex could’ve asked for better advertisement.

Very nice. Wondering what the condition of the movement is. It still ticks but how does it run ? Nice story! Good advertisement for Rolex..

Why would it not run? It's akin to being kept in the safe for a few years.
