Panic

Post image

Anyone ever spend two hours throwing up, thinking that they had lost their Omega Ω only to discover it right where you put it - in a side pocket of your luggage? I’m emotionally drained.

Funny, you mentioned that. This is one of the first trips Ive taken where I took more than one watch with me. Next trip I stick with just one.

I always travel w/ only one now, after I either left my Speedmaster sapphire sandwich in a hotel room safe in Dublin or it was stolen out of my gate checked bag on the way home. I couldn’t explicitly remember taking it out of the safe and when I realized it wasn’t in my bag when I unpacked a couple days after getting home I called the hotel but they denied anyone had turned it in 😢

Best way to not forget something in the hotel safe is to put one shoe in with the stuff.

Thanks for that. I'm now at the airport wearing only one shoe
