American Youtuber Casey Neistat was delivered his watch to his doorstep after he lost it at the Dubai airport on Monday.
The 40-year-old was flying from Dubai to the US when he misplaced his custom apple watch at the security desk at the Dubai airport. Soon after, he posted on Twitter, requesting anyone who finds it to give him a call.
He wrote, “I left my custom apple watch at security in the @emirates terminal in Dubai. if anyone finds it please gimme a call. i really liked that watch. (my phone number is embroidered under where it says ‘REWARD’) thank you.”

Emirates Airline replied to the tweet about three hours later, “Hi Casey. We’re checking on this with our airport team. We’ll let you once we have an update. Feel free to DM us if you need further assistance. Thanks.”
Within hours, the airline posted an update informing the popular vlogger that his watch had been found and would reach him ‘safely’ very soon. “Found it! We’re working on getting it back to you safely now,” they wrote.

The next update came from Casey himself, who was thrilled to find his watch delivered to him at his doorstep. He wrote in a tweet, “Omg. first they put a shower on an airplane then they find my watch that i lost in the airport. is there nothing this airline can’t do?!”
The watch reached him neatly packed in an envelope with his name on top. “3 days ago i left my apple watch at security in the Dubai airport. Emirates airline found the watch, put it on a plane, flew it to California, drove it to my house and handed it to me in an envelope. that was very nice of you Emirates, thank you,” he tweeted, adding that he thought ‘all hope was lost’ when he realized he had lost the watch.
“Then, lost at sea, land appeared on the horizon,” Casey wrote, referencing to Emirates’ reply informing him that they had found the watch.
