Found & Reunited Lost $4,000 Ring @ Bondi Beach

3 weeks ago

MICHAEL OLIVER from LOST JEWELLERY RECOVERY Metal Detecting Services has been finding and reuniting lost wedding rings lost phones and lost car keys all week. Christmas day I was called out to dive for a lost mobile phone lost in a rock pool in Wollongong. Another ring was lost on Coogee Beach Found in just 10 minutes. A lost Engagement Ring on Cronulla Beach in Knee deep water was also reunited with the young newly weds. I just received a call for a lost ring at Bondi Beach on Christmas Eve, the owner was carrying his young child when he was struck by a wave on the shoreline. His wedding ring came off his finger and disappeared into the whitewash he searched frantically when a few locals said, don't worry mate call up Michael Oliver he's (the lord of the rings) he will find it. After receiving the call I was at Bondi beach 20 minutes later, the owner walked me through how he lost his wedding ring, I then reassured him, your ring is here and I will find it for you mate. I first search the gutter, it was not the drop point however the shore break was strong theres a possibility the ring was dragged into it. 20 minutes later no ring in the gutter thats good news I then proceed to set up another 2 grids, the waves are pounding on me as I'm right in the shore break it's important I don't miss an inch, I have to swing my detector with accuracy against the surf or I will miss this ring!! after another 26 minutes I get a Great T.ID reading on my underwater metal detector. I can see it's not exactly a surface target, the owner rushes over asking what he can do to help. I said we have to be patient I cannot just dig it as the surf can smash the ring out of my scoop if I dig it too fast!! I hold my ground patiently waiting between sets of waves, OK now I line it up and start to dig first scoop no ring it is deeper as expected I take another scoop of sand and BINGO as the water pulls the sand from my scoop we see this Beautiful Gold Diamond ring being exposed!! you did it, Michael you found my lost ring. you really are the LORD OF THE LOST RINGS thank you Michael. You are most welcome its my pleasure to be able to help you mate. The Bondi Life Guards come over asking Michael who's ring have you found today mate and the ring you found last week in the surf was inspiring the owners said to say thank you, you are doing great work for the community. The owner and his father reach out giving me a big hug, thank you for coming out so fast and the day before Christmas we deeply appreciate your efforts, Thank you.
