Thanks for the advice.

I didn't realize Hodinkee provided insurance.

I found the following thread (which gets into guns quite heavily) but still has useful information... although it's quite old:

I saw a mention in that thread about "Jewelers Mutual Insurance". I'm not sure what the benefit is between this and putting it on your home owner's insurance. Does home owners insurance only cover up to a certain amount like 5k? Does it also not protect it if you damage it? What if you drop it, or it gets water damage?

It would be nice to have a policy that covers everything. Is that what "Jewelers Mutual Insurance" does?

One thing I was wondering is if you filed a claim that your watch was stolen, how does the insurance company prove that it was, in fact, stolen? Couldn't anyone claim that their watch was stolen?
