Woman finds rare vintage Rolex in couch cushions

This kind of thing would never happen to me!

A lady in Canada got super lucky when she bought a couch at a thrift shop, and ended up getting WAY more than her money's worth.

She bought the couch for $25; then a few years (YEARS!) later, she decided to flip all the cushions to clean them. That's when she made a very fortunate discovery.

Hidden in the cushions, she found a watch...a very rare and vintage Rolex watch. A Rolex Daytona 6241 "Paul Newman" variant, to be exact.

With no records of who owned the couch, or the watch, it was her to keep. Are you wondering how much the watch was worth? It was worth at least $250k. I say "was" because she's already sold it. When asked what she planned on doing with the new cash, she said, "buy a house and get a boob job."

Here's what that type of watch looks like.... so you can go search your couch cushions!
