No joke. If you remember a fire in the northern part of singapore around 8 days back. My house is the innocent unit that my entire study room is burnt down.
I placed my watches inside a watch winder. The plastic cover and air con unit melted and covered 8 of my watches.
My Rolex submariner and panerai survived without visible damage. Internal don't know got damaged or not.
Oyster perpetual second hand and cover dropped out. Don't know still working or not.
Santos is covered by plastic. Managed to remove all the melted plastic. Watch still moving. Sent back to Cartier for check. Hopefully nothing is damaged inside
Omega speedmaster is also gone. Can't move and cover also dropped.
My dad's rolex is also covered with plastic but can't remove the plastic. Can't tell whether still working or not.
The rest are gone.
Gosh, I feel your pain bro. We all encounter catastrophes in life and this is indeed one you are going through. Even though no one was injured, it must hurt to see your watches destroyed. Try to put it behind you and move on.
Ask around for legal advice on what you can do to recover some losses.
Its a sombre reminder to all of us to get fire insurance, and maybe even get one of those fire safes to put valuables.
Do take care!
