A woman in Rishon LeZion, Israel, has recovered her luxury Rolex watch, valued at approximately $22,000 (80,000 NIS), after accidentally throwing it away in a trash bin two days prior. Inbal Binyamin discovered the watch just minutes before a garbage truck was scheduled to collect the bins.
The dramatic incident was captured in a viral video showing Binyamin frantically searching through the green bins on the street, expressing disbelief and distress. She recounted the events on the program "HaOlam HaBoker," explaining that she had mistakenly discarded the watch along with a bag of trash one morning.
After an extensive search of her home yielded no results, friends and family suggested checking the most unexpected place. "My husband and a friend told me to check the bin, but that was the last option," she shared.
Realizing the watch might be in the street bin, Binyamin engaged in a desperate race against time, as the garbage truck was due in ten minutes. She described the tense moments of sifting through the refuse, opening bag after bag. "We just ran out, opened the two bins, and checked bag by bag. Suddenly I saw a red bag, and the watch was lying on it," she said, confirming the watch's safe recovery.
