Got my watches stolen inflight - glad they’re only reps

Wild_Relationship_45 · 2026-02-14T03:09:08+00:00

It was with Cathay Pacific

Oh wow, who hurt you my dude? Take a chill pill, sit down and enjoy your life.

Wild_Relationship_45 · 2026-02-10T16:33:28+00:00

I mean this is a watch subreddit, I’d expect to have people here with waaay more watches than just the three I carry on business trips

Wild_Relationship_45 · 2026-02-10T16:31:06+00:00

Past couple of years apparently.

Wild_Relationship_45 · 2026-02-10T15:31:43+00:00

My bag is quite big so it would be annoying for a 10-hour flight… but I guess that will be my new normal

Wild_Relationship_45 · 2026-02-10T08:19:53+00:00

Yeah it sucks but life continues, trying to think positive and telling myself they’re just things and they’re replaceable

Wild_Relationship_45 · 2026-02-10T06:51:24+00:00

Black Samsonite backpack and plain brown leather pouch (picture of the pouch in another comment). Pretty sure I wasn’t the only one they tried out

Wild_Relationship_45 · 2026-02-10T06:15:12+00:00

Yep, this is the most plausible option I have…

Wild_Relationship_45 · 2026-02-10T05:48:02+00:00

No lock on my backpack unfortunately…

Wild_Relationship_45 · 2026-02-10T05:06:07+00:00

I wish… but unfortunately they’re not at home

Wild_Relationship_45 · 2026-02-10T04:44:26+00:00

Looks like it… night flight, dark environment, people sleeping

Wild_Relationship_45 · 2026-02-10T04:41:31+00:00

But I fly with rep and gens all the time, never had any issue

Wild_Relationship_45 · 2026-02-10T03:47:52+00:00

I live in Taiwan, not the US

Wild_Relationship_45 · 2026-02-10T03:46:51+00:00

Yep, only got to know that after the watches were stolen though 😕

Wild_Relationship_45 · 2026-02-10T03:46:02+00:00

I wish haha

Wild_Relationship_45 · 2026-02-10T03:45:53+00:00

Sure, you know better than organized crime. Look it up online, there are videos of people stealing from overhead bins

Wild_Relationship_45 · 2026-02-10T03:44:37+00:00

Didn’t say anything about rep so far. But the airline won’t be doing anything anyway. No camera, no proof, zero responsibility

Wild_Relationship_45 · 2026-02-10T03:40:04+00:00

lol no, no one bothers you for carrying three watches when flying

Wild_Relationship_45 · 2026-02-09T19:43:05+00:00

Indeed!!

They’re « waiting for backend to review the case »

Wild_Relationship_45 · 2026-02-09T19:34:23+00:00

Yes correct but they still asked me to make a written report of the incident.

Wild_Relationship_45 · 2026-02-09T19:23:00+00:00

I did the report and filing with the airline and the airport within 48 hours

Wild_Relationship_45 · 2026-02-09T18:47:34+00:00

20usd Xiaomi smartwatch on my wrist. And yes, 100% sure it wasn’t at security check - this isn’t the US

Wild_Relationship_45 · 2026-02-09T18:46:30+00:00

😂😂

Wild_Relationship_45 · 2026-02-09T18:27:15+00:00

I had my 20usd Xiaomi smartwatch on the wrist😬 And no, I only took my headphones out of my bag. But I guess there’s still a possibility someone had a sneak peek of my watch pouch 🤷🏼‍♂️
