Good point.

I feel gutted for you op. What a as terrible feeling. I kept scrolling to this point in the thread hoping for good news. Keep looking! When I’m shoveling snow I always mind the possibility that it slips off into the ground and into the pile I’m tossing way ahead me.

I feel your pain. Just today I was in Home Depot and my omega clasp came undone and the watch almost came off my wrist!

Good luck!!!!

OP- I hope you find your watch. Keep searching. Use a metal detector.

Also, don't forget to check the obvious places as well. Perhaps you'll find it later in a spot like that.

Hate to hear this!! A couple of years ago our house took a ton of damage from a hurricane and we were bouncing around from hotel to hotel out of town. I was traveling with five watches and constantly stashing them here and there. Well my black Daytona was missing for half the day until i finally found it me glove compartment where I’d left it. I sincerely hope and pray that you can find it.

Sorry to hear. Could be any of us. Maybe she'll turn up?

Can pray to St. Anthony? Kinda corny, but it works sometimes.

I wish I was close enough to help. Metal detecting is my hobby and "recoveries" are my favourite part of the hobby.
As others have said, TheRingFinders.com are worth a call. I'm a member for my area.
I have found rings for people ¼ mile out on vast beaches, so don't give up hope.

Have faith! I was skiing last year and lost my car keys on the mountain. After doing a few slow runs to try and find them, my brother in law suggested the lost and found.

I walked in and asked if anyone had turned in a pair of keys, he asked me the brand and I told him and he goes “yep here you go”. The guy behind me in line goes “holy f***n sh*t!”

Not all people are bad

Great news everyone. My mom found my watch in a snow bank this morning. So must have fallen off when shoveling out her cars. What a great day. She said it’s in perfect condition so I’m heading over to pick it up shortly. Appreciate all the good vibes everyone posted as I believe they helped my watch get back to me.
