Kylie was sitting on her horse near the shoreline in a private access lake when tragedy struck. Her much loved gold and diamonds ring had slipped off her finger into the murky waters.
Erin was enjoying the sun at Port Melbourne beach. Before applying sun screen, Erin had taken off her beautiful 18k diamond engagement ring. When she went to put her ring back on, her heart sank as she realised she'd dropped it in the sand. In a panic Erin organised a colander so she and her friend could sieve through the sand in an attempt to locate her ring. Two hours later, exhausted and distressed, they still hadn't found it.
Conor was beside his girlfriend filming the famous stingrays of Hamelin Bay when his solid gold 'nail' bracelet popped open and fell into the ocean. Despite not moving, and feeling around for it on the seafloor, he was unable to locate it.
Kim had searched her Perth garden for hours after forgetting she'd left an expensive pair of diamond stud earings on a towel which she'd then flicked out from her patio. She had found one earing in the bark chips but could not find the other. She confided in me when I arrived to search for it that she hadn't yet informed her husband of the mishap!…
Sean from Ring Rescues called last night at 6pm and asked me to do an ocean rescue of a 22k Gold Chain and Cross asap.
We discussed the loss report in detail then looked at the tides and saw my best chance was around Midnight to 1:30am. I got myself fed (spaghetti and meatballs!) and then got my gear ready for a middle of the night rescue.
The area was not your usual water search. Ainsley was lying down under a rotunda taking photos of the lake. Once she had finished she sat up, not realising her two rings which were on her necklace had got stuck between the decking boards. Ainsley felt her necklace break and then watched her two rings fall through the gap of the decking boards and into the dark water underneath. According to a passer by Ainsley yelled in disbelief. While one of the rings was not so valuable or especially sentimental the other was not just any ring. It had belonged to her grandmother who had passed. This beautiful ring was around 60 years old.
Freddie had searched frantically on his hands and knees when he realised he'd lost his gold chain in the sand at City Beach. It had his grandmothers wedding ring attached to it so he was very distressed when he later left the beach without it.
Jordan had gone fishing in his pocket for his wedding ring when he got back to his car after going for a swim a few days ago. Alas it was no longer where he'd put it.
He'd retraced his steps and searched on hands and knees in the sand where he'd put his shirt back. Unfortunately he was unable to find it.
It was a windy overcast afternoon. Got a call from Sean at Ring Rescues that Joe had lost his gold signet ring, either on the beach while playing with his kids or in the ocean when he'd gone for a swim.
Sunday 2/11/20 - John rang me to ask if I could find his sentimental wedding ring which he'd lost while surfing at Leighton Beach near Fremantle, WA. I replied with a drawn out 'yyeeeesss' thinking immediately of the night recently where I witnessed 3 lads wrestling a 2.5m tiger shark they'd just caught from the surf...
Ruth and her boyfriend had enjoyed an afternoon at Perth's most popular beach but when Ruth looked for her sentimental rose gold earings once they had returned to the car she found that she no longer had them. They had returned to the beach to look for them where they had been sitting close to the waters edge but had been unable to find them and were standing there wondering what if anything they could do...
What's a product or service you'd like to show.
Cam called to ask if I could help find his wireless earbuds on a construction site. I said maaaybe! Obviously modern commercial construction sites are full of metal and are about as dynamic as a storm washed beach. I asked him to send a pic of the site and man, it looked tough. Never one to shirk a challenge I...
Maurice had brought his family out to Western Australia for the trip of a lifetime and had been having just that when tradgedy had struck.

Judy had been having a hectic morning of gardening and walking her daughters dog along with some babysitting and wasn't sure where she had lost her very sentimental, gold ring with yellow and pink argyle diamonds.
I'd agreed to meet her the next day after taking in one of the longer loss stories I'd had for a while. As usual my treasure brain would not let me sleep as it replayed that story over and over again...
A call from Ryan informed me that he’d just lost a heavy silver bracelet in the water between his boat and the marina jetty it is tied alongside in the Ascot Waters Marina in Perth, Western Australia.
The bracelet was particularly sentimental to Ryan as he had had a quantity of 99.9% silver coins from the Perth mint melted down and made into the bracelet whilst in Bali and it had lived on him...
This search began with a call from Chris who’d lost his wedding ring somewhere on the beach or in the water whilst fishing with two friends from North Cottesloe Beach. One of his friends had seen his wedding ring still on his finger a few hours later but by about 2pm he noticed it was missing...
Shae had had a bad days fishing. Well it was a good days fishing with his daughter until.. you guessed it, he lost his wedding band, probably due to an emulsion of sunblock, water and fish bait oils plus a bit of momentum. It was the next day when he called so I got in the car and set sail for Busselton about 1.5 hrs south of Perth...
Ring Ring, Ring Ring.. A Mr O’Conner called me recently and asked if I could help him as he’d lost a very sentimental signet ring. “Well, you’ve called the right bloke” I said, “finding lost stuff is what I do”. He then explained that he’d lost his signet ring in Byron Bay. Well here I am in Perth, Western Australia fielding a call for help from the other side of the continent! I said “Mmmm.. Ok...
Last week, I flew to Perth to visit my brother Sean who I hadn’t seen in ten years. It was going to be an epic catch up and I was hoping I would get the chance to see him in action on a ring find – a new talent he had developed since we last saw each other. I was fascinated with the whole process, and eager to share in what I was convinced would be a wicked feel good factor, reuniting someone with their lost ring...
Geraldine had been enjoying some time with her family on Rottnest Island when sitting in the sand she had lost her sentimental watch given to her by her husband Keith. On the phone she explained they would shortly be returning to Perth so I organised to meet them at their home so they could show me on google earth where they thought they had been on the beach and their...
Every year in March a bunch of nutters contest the Perth to Rottnest Island swim, a 2o km swim from the mainland through sharky waters to the pub in Thomson Bay, Rottnest Island. On the day of the swim I’d heard that several groups of swimmers in this years race were plucked from the water by safety vessels due to shark sightings. In fact I thought that the race had been abandoned as a result...
Standing in of all places ‘The Prospectors Patch’ metal detecting supplies store I was called by Curt to ask if I could find his 10th century viking wedding ring, which he’d become separated from during a kitesurfing whoopsee in the Swan River at Applecross.

Today started with a problem. My phone’s battery had died overnight and once I’d thrown it on the charger and turned it on, it notified me I had voicemail. The message was from Nathan who’d lost his white gold, diamond engagement ring either on Silver Sands Beach in Mandurah or between there and his foreshore house this morning. Unfortunately...
All my advertising states it. Time is of the essence and often the #1 factor in effecting a successful recovery. After receiving a call from Steve today who had lost his Tiffany & Co, platinum wedding ring at Trigg beach this morning I explained to him that it was important to search for it as soon as possible and that I could meet him at the beach in about an hour or so, to see about reuniting him with it [...]

What an extraordinary day! After a relatively poor afternoons detecting in the water at one of Perths most popular beaches I returned to my ute and now in a towel threw my wetsuit in the back. I was thinking I must check my phone to see if I had any messages when I turned to see a…
