路I probably wouldn鈥檛 run to my safe, but if I did I would definitely grab the sentimental stuff from my Dad. Next I鈥檇 likely grab my Fortis Shipman with blue dial because the watch is unique with not another known (to my and a good number of friend鈥檚 knowledge). Then again, watches are small so I bet you could shove them in your pockets or a bag if you had enough time to hit the safe!

路路Happily spending my daughter鈥檚 inheritanceSince I lost my house to a fire some years ago, along with pretty much everything we owned I learned a very hard lesson.
Anything of value is now kept in a 2000lb fire rated safe. Only the watch I am wearing that day is not in there.
I don't wish something like this on even my worst enemy. Well, maybe my WORST enemy. But nobody else.

路I'd only be concerned with saving whatever watch happened to be on my wrist at the time.
exactly my thought. I鈥檇 be more worried about getting pets and loved ones out than any material items than can be replaced. Fires can go from small to out of control way to fast to be worried about a silly watch.

路I'm reminded of when I was in HS and worked at a gas station. The supervisor (a 19 year old HS dropout) asked me the following: What would you do if you dropped a quarter into the toilet? I said I would leave it. He said he would throw in a $10 bill. He would reach in for the $10 spot, and since his hand was already in there, he'd grab the quarter.
The point is, if I could grab one watch, I could grab two 馃榾

路My grandfathers pocketwatch which my mother gave me. My grandfather bought the watch during holiday in Paris while he was living in Berlin, Germany. When he left Germany because of Hitler he took the watch with him to Amsterdam. You have to rip this watch out of my dead hands before you can take it from me.
