Lost pocket watch in Brighton
I was wandering near Brighton Station around 10:30 p.m. on Tuesday when I realized my pocket watch had vanished from my pocket. It’s a silver-cased watch on a thin chain, with the initials JR engraved on the back and a small crack in the glass. The watch belonged to my late grandfather and carries more memory than value. I’d been looking along West Street and The Lanes as the crowds thinned, and I’m hoping it turned up somewhere nearby. If anyone finds it, please keep it safe and let the site know.
Found vintage Elgin pocket watch with engravings
I found a vintage Elgin pocket watch this afternoon around 2:15pm by the Palace Pier on the Brighton seafront. It's a gold-tone case, about 4 cm across, with a white dial and black Roman numerals. The back is engraved with tiny initials 'A.J.' and there’s a delicate ornate pattern that catches the light. The crystal has a small crack near 3 o'clock, and the attached chain has a short, worn link, like it’s been carried in a pocket for decades. This is clearly a collector's item, and I’d really like to get it back to its owner—it felt special seeing it gleam in the sun. If anyone recognizes it, please get in touch.
