  1. Yes, every movable donation must be notarized
  2. No, an oral movable donation within the threshold may be made with simultaneous delivery
  3. Yes, because delivery is prohibited in oral donations
  4. No, because acceptance is never needed
  5. Yes, because the immovable-property rule governs watches
