Description
I had paused for a quick stretch by Caras Park and the Clark Fork River around 6:40 PM on Tuesday, June 3, when I realized my two wrist watches were gone from the bench. One is a dark leather-strapped vintage piece, the other a sleek silver sports watch; they aren’t priceless, but they’re part of my routine and memory. I retraced the path along the river from Higgins Avenue to Caras Park, hoping someone picked them up, but I came up empty. If they’re found, I’d be grateful; these watches carry too many small moments to let go.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
