Lost Cartier Juste un Clou bracelet

  • from Miami (Florida, United States)

Did you just lose a ring or any other type of jewelry at the beach, in the sand, in the shallow water, or even in your backyard, then give me a call, louis at 305-608-1870. I have a Metal Detecting service with 15 yrs of experience and can come out and help you recover lost item.
In the photos above you can see another successful recovery of a beautiful gold and diamond Cartier bracelet (my second one in as many months).  The bracelet was a special gift and flew off her wrist while playing in the sand.  After many hours of her trying to look for it she came across my number/service.  When I got there she frantically walked me over to the area where she thought she lost it.  I made two passes and quickly found her bracelet.  She was in disbelief and so thankful.
So if anything like this has happened to you, don’t wait. Give me a call. Louis 305-608-1870

Wedding ring lost in swimming pool, Orlando Florida recovered by Mike McInroe Florida Ring Finder.

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:



I received a late night call from Raymond asking if I would possibly be able to help him find his lost wedding ring on the bottom of a rather large swimming pool in a downtown Orlando Hotel. It was late at night but I asked if he was sure that he lost it in the pool and if he could get permission for me to conduct a scuba dive after hours! If he said yes to those two questions then I would agree to make the drive down and help him out. He called back right away and said yes to those two questions…so about 11:30pm I packed up my gear and drove down to meet Raymond and his wife who were anxiously awaiting me at the front desk. It was the perfect dive scenario so I set up my BLU3 NEMO Portable Dive System, donned my wet suit, my fins, mask, weight belt and grabbed my underwater dive light and entered the pool at the shallow end and swam along the bottom scanning my powerful light just an inch or so off of the bottom and slowly covered the whole pool. And then right in the darkest corner of the deepest end I saw a glint of gold and swam towards it hoping that it was Raymonds lost wedding ring and sure enough! Turned out to be a really easy and enjoyable search and recovery and even though I got home super late…it was a real pleasure to be able to help Raymond and his wife!

Lost Ring Returned. « Follow Your Dreams »

  • from Kelowna (British Columbia, Canada)

Kim called me that she was on her patio with her ring off, her young son picked it up and threw it over the fence into the field behind.  » Aren`t  little boys wonderful?’  I respond right away and met her on the other side of her fence, wouldn`t you know there was a thorny bush at the location. Kim said she searched all around and it has to be in the bush. After 30 minutes of being scratched and beat up, and unable to swing my coil, plus the hot Okanagan climate, I advised her to have the bush cut back and we will try again. Laying in bed that night I thought about the Kim and her distress, so at 5am the next morning back I went to widen the search. 12 feet beyond the bush I retrieved Kim`s ring, that little boy has a strong arm.                                                                                              The ring has an inscription  » Be True to Your Dreams » how appropriate, that is what took me back.

Lost — Keepsake necklace with glass pendant, Daytona Beach — FOUND!!!

  • from New Smyrna Beach (Florida, United States)

Mia had gone to the beach for a relaxing day, never imagining she’d lose one of her most treasured possessions—a necklace with a beautiful glass pendant. When she was just four years old, her mom bought matching pendants for herself and her two daughters during a magical family vacation to the Bahamas. Mia wore hers every day through elementary and middle school as a reminder of those special memories. At the beach, she placed the necklace in a bag on a blanket. When someone shook the blanket to remove the sand, the necklace was unknowingly tossed into the sand. She was heartbroken.

Mia posted on the Daytona Dig & Find Metal Detecting Club Facebook page, hoping someone could help. I headed out early Friday morning after texting her the night before to narrow down the search area.  As I drove, I prayed.  When I arrived, I powered up my Minelab Manticore and got to work.

I carefully searched where the cars park because Mia remembered the blanket was between them. I covered the upper, middle, and lower sections with no luck. Then I moved closer to the dunes—still nothing but trash. Just before calling it quits, I decided to search the driving lane. A strong signal… only a nickel. I prayed once more, swung the coil again, and another solid tone rang out. This time, it was Mia’s necklace!

Her dad, Mike, met me, and it was a joy to place that priceless treasure back into his hands. A cherished family memory had been restored. God is good!

Lost something important? Maybe I can help. I’m Ed Duffey, a Central Florida metal detecting specialist focused on recovering lost items. Whether it’s a ring, jewelry, keys, or even a phone, I search beaches, parks, yards, and shallow water—just about anywhere it might be hiding.

If it’s metal and it’s lost, there’s a good chance I can find it.

Man’s 14K Yellow Gold Wedding Band Lost in the Ocean, Found and Returned Myrtle Beach SC

  • from North Myrtle Beach (South Carolina, United States)

On Sunday, June 21, 2026 (Father’s Day), I got a text message just before 5 p.m. saying in part, “Hi Jim, this is Nathan. I lost my wedding ring at the beach yesterday and learned today that you find wedding rings. I was wondering if you are able to search for it. I know the approximate area it fell off my hand during high tide. It was in front of the Island Vista Condos and the ring has an inscription in it. Thank you for your time, and if you’re busy no stress. Its life, it happens and I know this is a long shot.” He also sent a picture of both the area and his ring. I immediately called him to get more details. He said he had been swimming in the ocean and as he moved his left arm to take a stoke, he felt his ring come off. I asked about what time and whether he was swimming towards or away from shore, he stated away. The time coincided with close to high tide, which he said, and he also stated he was about chest deep. Low tide was coming up so I told him I’d come and see what I could do.

He and his wife Abbey had already checked out of the resort that day. So, when I got there, I used the picture he sent to get an idea where I needed to search. I also face timed him to double check where I needed to be. At some point before they checked out, he had built up some sand mounds. He lined me up with a house on the beach and the mounds and gave me a good starting point. Knowing he lost it at high tide meant I didn’t have to get soaked. I still ventured out to about waist deep on my grid search. I started on the north end of the house and his sand mounds and worked south. When I made my turn on the far south end of the house, I hit a solid 17 on the VDI (visual display indicator), exactly the number I was looking for. I dug a couple of scoops, laid it out on the beach; spread the sand out with my foot and BINGO! I saw his ring lying in the sand. Cleaned the sand off, found a shell and took a picture. I sent him the picture and called him. He was so excited he had a hard time talking. Luckily, they were still in the area and having a Father’s Day Dinner with Abbey’s parents. They were just finishing up and would come back to get the ring. I was standing next to the car when they pulled up, stopped and got out of the car. Nathan was still excited and shocked to get his ring back. Great couple with matching wedding bands back where they belong!

Nathan and Abbey – Thank you for trusting me to help find your lost treasure. Take care of yourselves and each other and the very best of wishes.

Jim

Key Fob Lost in the Dry Sand, Found and Returned North Myrtle Beach SC

  • from North Myrtle Beach (South Carolina, United States)

On Friday, June 19, 2026 as I was in the process of doing a grid search for a lost ring, a young lady came running up to me in a panic asking for help. I had my earphones and couldn’t understand what she was asking. When I removed them she said that they had lost their keys and could I please help. I left my scoop in the sand to mark my grid line and followed her down the beach. When I got to the area, I’m assuming her husband Jay said that he had lost his key fob and showed me the area. I made a couple of passes over the area with the coil and got a strong signal. I showed Jay the spot and he reached into the sand and retrieved the fob. All was well and the family could head home. Wish all the searches were that easy.

Gold Wedding Band Lost, Recovered and Returned in Chester Springs, PA!!!

  • from Philadelphia (Pennsylvania, United States)

Darshan found me online in the Ring Finder Directory after searching for his lost ring for many hours. He was at a community block party near his home in Chester Springs, PA when he felt his ring slip off his finger. He knew exactly where it fell off but the grass was quite high and thick and he just could not find it despite hours of searching on hands and knees. He finally reached out to a pro and we met shortly after his call. He was quite stressed about his lost ring…I told him I would find in 2 minutes. Well it took me closer to 3 minutes…I was extremely happy that I was able to come through for Darshan and return his ring to him!

 

Lost Wedding rings in the sand at Carpinteria State Beach found by Dave The RingFinder

  • from Santa Barbara (California, United States)

If you have lost your wedding ring, a bracelet, golden grill or a necklace don’t waste the time or the money buying or renting a metal detector. Instead hire an expert metal detecting professional like Dave The RingFinder! Dave is the “metal detective” and knows how to stack the odds in your favor to get your precious jewelry back. Call or text Dave at 805-290-5009 so he can create a plan to get your ring back!

I got a text last Wednesday from Diego who had been vacationing with his family at Carpinteria State Beach. In an effort to keep her rings safe his wife had taken them off while applying sunscreen on the kids and swimming. As almost always happen, the rings get forgotten and after cleaning up the area at the end of the day Monday they realized the rings were gone.

They dug frantically in the area but couldn’t come up with anything and they searched again the following day but no luck. They found Dave The RingFinder on the Internet and reached out. I was a bit concerned because Carpinteria State Beach gets detected pretty hard but I assured them that I would cover the entire area and if they were still there I would find them. They had already left to go back home from their vacation so I would be mailing these rings back if I found them.

I got out to the beach around 3:30pm and there were lot’s of folks enjoying the day and the area I had been given to search was a bit crowded but I figured I could work around them and I would wait until they left if I needed to. About 5 minutes in I was approached by one of the Lifeguards and he knew why I was there and he directed me to an area where they had been digging for the ring. Another 2 minutes and my Minelab Manticore identified ring number 1 and minute later my CKG scoop had picked up ring number 2.

New Smyrna Beach, Florida… Lost rings in surf found by Florida Ring Finder.

Do you need a metal detector to find something that is lost in your yard, ocean or at the park? Why not hire a professional metal detecting expert instead. My name is Mike McInroe…Central Florida Ring Finder at 321-363-6029! On land, in the water, at the park, in the grass, sand, in cars, homes…rings, jewelry, keys, phones, property markers, etc.

I received a call from Jeff asking about theringfinders service and if I was available to help his brother and sister in law look for a very special ring lost in the ocean. I was super busy that day so I gave them Mr Edward Duffey’s number and he and a friend went out at the next low tide to look for their lost ring…but were unsuccessful! The next day my wife, daughter and grandson wanted to go to the beach so I opted to head out as well only a bit further north…right where Nick and his wife were swimming when their ring was lost. I arrived right at low tide and after talking to Nick I set out my flags and began searching the wet sand and out into the water. I had forgotten to ask what sort of ring or rings I was looking for and about 35 minutes into my search I got a good solid signal about knee deep and there in my scoop was a beautiful gold ring with a fairly large diamond and I could only imagine that this was the one that was lost. And since I had plenty of time and daylight I decided to continue searching. About 10 later I got another solid signal, knee deep in the surf, and again I spotted another gold ring in my Xtreme Scoop…a thinner wedding ring. A few minutes later Nick’s mother in law came walking down the beach towards me and I politely asked if she was the one who lost a ring…and she said no…it was my daughter. So I asked about the ring and as soon as I heard the description and that there were two rings that were lost I said, « Well I have found a couple of rings »…and that got her attention big time! When I pulled out the large diamond engagement ring she could not believe it and she started yelling and jumping up and down. I said wait a minute…I have another ring here as well and then she came unglued!! Jumping and waiving her arms, yelling and crying and then she started running up the beach towards the house. Then I saw Nick and his wife come running down to meet her and they began hugging and crying…it was absolutely amazing to watch the joy and sheer delight that they were experiencing. I couldn’t help but thank God for allowing me to be a blessing to this young couple and to find their lost rings!
