Ans) As reported by GI ,Rocha decided to go for a swim during a tour in Búzios when he lost his Apple Watch. According to him, the watch detached itself from his wrist while underwater. “My watch fell into the water, came off my wrist and I just lost hope,” he said. Rocha tried to get his Apple Watch back, but it seemed impossible. So he returned to the schooner and surprisingly, he was still able to track it at sea through the Find My app. “This watch has GPS, it’s water-resistant.
