Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing
this
letter concerning a valuable
watch
I lost on the train. It is an old-style
watch
and it was a gift from my grandfather. It is made from gold, and it bears my grandfather's initials, J.K, on the back. Plus, the size of the
watch
is quite distinguishable because it is small. I was on my way back to my house and the moment I entered the house, I noticed that my
watch
was missing. I recall, that I have taken the express train and I was sitting in the
first
-class section of the train. I have removed the
watch
from my hand because I have
spilled

some coffee on myself.
As a result
, I set the
watch
just on the seat
next
to me, on the right.
This
is a valuable
watch
for me not only because it is expensive but because it belonged to my grandfather. I would appreciate it if you could find the
watch
and possibly keep it in a secure place in your head office. You may contact me on my mobile number: 987-76565, once you have found it. Thank you for your time and consideration. Yours faithfully, Hassan
