Summary
Photos posted by Randy Pitchford show a watch reportedly found while scuba diving near St. Martin, with "Pixel Watch 5" etched on the back before Google had announced the device.
The images also reveal health and sensor labels including EDA, skin temperature, SpO2, heart rate and pulse sensing, plus UWB support.
India BIS filings dated June 1 — a day after the images were shared — point to as many as 4 watch models, though the database does not name the Pixel Watch 5.
That timing has fueled speculation over whether the watch was accidentally lost or part of a promotional stunt, but the report says an early unit likely ended up in the water by chance.
