The semi-conclusion to the story... (extract from the BBC News article published on 23. Feb.)

Rolex found in Chalkwell drain reunited with owner

A 21,000 GBP Rolex watch which was discovered in an Essex drain has been reunited with its owner.

The watch, discovered by a street cleaner near Chalkwell railway station two weeks ago, was stolen in a burglary in September, police said...

...PC Calley Mackay said the watches had been stolen from a nearby house on 11 September. The Rolex was given to the owner by his late wife.

The owner of the watches described the street cleaner as "the most honest man in England". He gave him the replicas as a reward.

My comment:
What remains unclear is what about the other Rolex and the Frank Fisher watch Large also found, I've not heard anything about those yet.
