All great points. Maybe there’s a metal detecting technology that can sniff specific types of metal? Or, some kind of density scan that could be tuned to the materials in the necklace?
Ostensibly, they would be directly over the Titanic wreck because they were currently diving it, and the time the necklace was dropped as they were standing there when that old crone dropped it in front her middle-class daughter and the crew dedicating their professional lives to finding it. Estimations of the ocean currents and mockups of a necklace falling in seawater might tighten the search area.
The real question is, how long could you comb a sea floor littered with Titanic debris before costs rose to more than the value of the necklace?
By the way: RIP to Bill Paxton: Space Marine, Tornado Chaser, and Shipwreck Archeologist. May you find the Heart of the Ocean in your heavenly dreams. You are missed 😢
