Apple Watch lost on the beach, Loveladies NJ, LBI, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)
Contact:

I received a call from Jennifer about her son Will’s lost Apple Watch on the beach. They had been enjoying the day at a relatively private beach when Will took off his watch and placed it in the cup holder of a beach chair. Jennifer explained they had been sitting near the middle of the beach, away from the tide, so there was a good chance the watch was still there.

She initially wanted to think about it, but called me back two days later to meet at the beach. Will walked me out to the spot and, being a very detail-oriented young man, he described every step and action he had taken before the watch disappeared.

I set up a grid search in the area he pointed out, and within 15 minutes, I found the Apple Watch safely in my sand scoop. Will was amazed and gave me a high five, while Jennifer was absolutely thrilled that the watch was recovered after two days on the beach.

Super Nice Ring Set Recovered

  • from Orange Beach (Alabama, United States)
Contact:

Sue lost her wedding ring set at Gulf Shores a couple day before calling me for help. She didn’t know where to go and it took a day or so to find someone who could help. I told her i would be there first thing in the morning. I met her where she and the family were staying and we walked to the beach area she thinks it was lost. She wasn’t sure how it was lost, where it might be or if it was even on the beach but felt hopefully it was on the beach. She talked about the day it was lost and her activities and locations. The house and car had been searched and it wasn’t there, so logicly it must on the way to the beach or somewhere on the beach. She showed me the various places they were on the beach and the routes to and from those various places. With that information I put together a search plan and proceeded. After about 30 minutes and after digging several other targets I got a very good signal and knew i found something good. I dug it and showed it to Sue who shouted you found it! She was very, very happily. I’m glad I found it for her, it made both our days.

Beautiful Ring Recovered at Gulf Shores

  • from Orange Beach (Alabama, United States)
Contact:

This very nice lady was attending a Beach Volley Ball tournament at Gulf Shores. Some how her ring slipped off and immediately burrowed into the sand without her realizing. This was a huge tournament, both high school and college competitions. Maybe 90 courts with walkways in between. I started the search in the areas she felt was the best change of finding the ring. Lots of people had been walking over the walkways so I anticipated the ring would have been pushed down until it hit a hard layer. Fortunately it wasn’t far from the location she identified and it was pretty deep. The only worry I has was not interfering with the play and searching only in between volleys!

Ring Recovered at Robinson Island

  • from Orange Beach (Alabama, United States)
Contact:

I was called to find a ring on Robinson Island late Saturday afternoon the day before Easter. The ring was lost in the water near the their boat when the owner threw the anchor to set a stern line in about waist deep water. By the time I got there the party and most of the boats had gone home, so it was easy to maneuver while searching except for the pop tops and pull tabs. When you’re hunting jewelry you can’t depend on knowing the metallurgy so you have got to dig everything. I wasn’t counting but I’ll bet I dug over 100 pull tabs. That said when I finally located the ring the data from my detector was unmistakable. Ring was recovered, we got back to the dock with a little sun left and the the family was all happy.

Lost Class Ring North Wildwood NJ Found by John Favano Ring Finder South Jersey

Lost a ring? Call now? 215-850-0188 

It was a sunny Friday afternoon in North Wildwood, NJ when Dana’s beach day took an unexpected turn. What started as a fun and relaxing time with friends quickly became a moment of panic and heartbreak all over one small, but very meaningful item: her gold high school class ring.

The class ring was lost in the sand in North Wildwood NJ

Dana had been standing near the dunes, to talk to some friends and something happened. As Dana threw her hands into the air to wave with excitement. In that exact moment, the ring slipped right off her finger and disappeared into the sand. “I felt it leave my hand,” Dana told me. “It was like slow motion. I looked down, and it was gone. Just gone. “The group immediately began combing the area with their hands, digging and searching. But as anyone who’s lost jewelry on the beach knows, the sand has a way of swallowing things whole.

After several frustrating minutes, Dana’s friend remembered hearing about professional metal detectorists who help recover lost items on the beach. A quick search brought her to RingFindersSouthJersey.com, and her friend called me John Favano right away. I answered immediately, asked a few questions, and told I told her I was already close by and would be there in about 15 minutes. I arrived with my metal detector and experience.

After asking Dana to point out the area she was standing and which way she waved, I scanned the area for no more than five minutes before the metal detector got a strong signal. One scoop of sand later and there it was. Dana’s gold class ring, still glinting in the sunlight. “Dana couldn’t believe it. I was shocked. I thought it was gone forever,” Dana said. “John is amazing at what he does. I’m so thankful my friend found him. ”Stories like Dana’s happen more often than most people think, especially on busy beaches during the summer.

I received a call from Deb this afternoon. She explained that she was at the beach with friends and her ring flew off her hand when the wind took off with the umbrella she was trying to set up. Deb had a general idea of where the ring landed but after searching on her hands and knees, with friends helping, she could not find her ring of 40 years. Took the short ride over from home and met up with Deb and her friends on Broadway beach. I managed to recover her ring in about 5 minutes, much to her relief. Another happy client! At Debs request, only her ring is pictured, and what a beauty it is!

Chalker Beach Old Saybrook CT, Lost Gold Baby ring returned 2025

  • from Old Saybrook (Connecticut, United States)
Contact:

July 5, 2025, Chalker beach Old Saybrook , CT. Bryan and his family were enjoying a beach day on a crowded beach when he realized that his gold chain holding his sentimental gold baby ring had opened. Somewhere in the area it had fallen into the sand, it could have been near his chairs or along a circuitous path he had walked between several other beach goers. Word quickly spread about the lost ring. A friend of mine at the beach mentioned that I might be around to help since I am known in the beach community as the lost jewelry recovery person. I have lived at the beach for twenty years and have helped others find their lost jewelry. Amazingly I had just gotten back home from Bluff Point State Park beach in Groton for a wedding ring recovery. I was at the beach within 5 minutes. we scoped out the area where his blanket, umbrella and chairs had been set up and I started detecting. We had to move the chairs because of the interferences and when nothing was found I asked him to walk the path where he noticed it was missing. A few feet into the path I had a reasonable signal but had interference from nearby chairs. The people kindly moved a few and I brought out the pin pointer and got a great signal. A few sweeps of the pin pointer and I saw the glint of a tiny gold ring.  I smiled and said we had found it. The beach crowd that was watching the events unfold exploded in shouts of joy. He looked at me stunned and then realized it was now found and gave me a great big hug. I asked for some pictures, and everyone then left the beach with smiles. Glory to St Anthony and to God for their divine help. Miracles do happen.
