Scuba Diver Has Found About 200 Apple Watches in State Lakes

An Illinois scuba diver has recovered about 200 Apple Watches from the bottoms of lakes.

Darick Langos makes a living using his metal detector to recover lost items from the water at Indiana’s Chain O’ Lakes. He said he has found about 200 Apple smartwatches during his dives.

Nearly all of the watches have their original bands attached.

Langos said he was hired to find some of the watches, while others he came across during his own dives.

He said he keeps everything he finds in the water in the hopes of returning them to their owners.

Other items he frequently finds underwater include smartphones, rings, jewelry and prescription glasses.
