Description
Hi, I’m Kai Olsen. On Wednesday at 7:45 PM, I realized my pocket watches were missing from my coat pocket as I stepped off the ferry near Statter Harbor in Juneau, Southeast Alaska. I’d paused to chat with a couple of locals on the boardwalk and, by the time I reached my hotel near the Mount Roberts Tramway, they were gone. The watches are two brass pieces, one engraved with initials KO and both with small scratches on the glass. They’re heirlooms from my grandfather, and losing them hit me hard—if they turn up in a coat pocket or a drawer, I’d be grateful to have them back.

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.
