Will SARS suspect me of tax evasion If I don't declare a watch(R23 000) donated to a friend.

What happens if SARS finds out about a casual gift(a watch) I have given to a friend. Will SARS investigate me for tax evasion if I have donated a watch valued at R23 000 to a friend and I have not declared any details relating to that donation on any tax returns. I'm aware that I would qualify for the R100 000 general exemption for donation.

Giving a watch to a friend, especially under the R100 000 value does not need to be declared or attract any tax.
