Fortunately it was my own stuff, screws, stems, parts, movements, watches and some tools all over the place....damn.

Now I know what to do in the next couple of days.
Sorry to hear that,I hope no major damage to the parts :( I hope we haven't "jinxed" it with our discussion about dropping movements yesterday :oops: :oops:
Nothing damaged, only thousands of parts and stuff scattered all over the place, I closed the door and got drunk....

Ah well, there is this Grand Seiko...

It was sent to Seiko in Japan and they said that they couldn't repair it as the parts were obsolete, so for some odd reason it ended up with me and I replaced the damaged and missing adjustment parts.
Now to see if it survived the flight.

It would really suck to lose that one, so fingers crossed.
