with the details, it is a black-coloured strapped watch which has a noise sticker on its back. It might be placed somewhere in the washroom as I vaguely remember I kept it there before using the washroom as it is not water resistant. I could be so grateful if you could find it and let me know about the same. I would be very thankful if you could courier my watch to the given address and I assure you that I will make a payment for the charges it takes. I am looking forward to your reply. Thank you, Dr Sakshi Vashist
