My wife and I had an amazing wedding, every aspect of it was storybook. The day after the wedding we were at Ocean City with family and friends and no sooner than I came out of the water I noticed my ring had come off. Everyone’s wedding band is special but this one was my late father’s. Not only that, but my mom had made it for him. It’s a one of a kind and means a lot to my family and me, we were all devastated that it had been lost.

As soon as we left the beach and I had internet service, I did a Google search and Ring Finders of South Jersey was at the top of the list. It was late Friday evening but I noticed they were open 24 hours a day so I took a chance and called. John answered, we talked and came up with a plan to meet the next day at low tide. I wasn’t confident that John would find it but I was hopeful after talking with him and that definitely made it easier to sleep that night.

We met up on Saturday morning, reviewed events of the previous day, and identified the general area where I most likely was when I lost the ring. At that point he went to work with his equipment. He said to me before he started, “don’t get excited if you see me digging”. Within 10-15 minutes of searching he had located something in the wash area and started digging. After the 2nd scoop, he started to walk my way and asked if I could describe the ring. I was overwhelmed, he had found it.

If you have lost something, I can not recommend John enough! While he found my ring in a short time, the fact that he was prepared to go back and look several times if he hadn’t been successful told me a lot about his character and that he cares about helping people. Thank you John and God Bless!!

Hi John. It’s Teri. Thank you again for finding the ring! We are all in awe of your dedication and talent! Here is the back story to help you… My son, Patch, was digging in the sand and decided to take off his grandfather’s WWII ring. He put it in the cup holder of a beach chair for safe keeping. Unknowingly his cousin, Cameron, packed up the chair and went to the water to clean up beach toys with the chair on her back. When we realized the ring had fallen out before leaving the beach, my whole family did a mad search in the sand. We figured if it was in the water,  it was lost forever. I resigned myself to the prospect that the ring was lost at sea where my father’s ashes were spread. My dad was a Merchant Marine and always had a love of the sea, so it seemed a fitting place, although it was a tough loss especially for my son. That evening I thought I might put it out there on Facebook. It was a Longshot, but thought it couldn’t hurt. Almost immediately people were commenting about John, the ring finder…

I lost both my engagement ring and wedding band in the ocean while playing ball with my son. Just 2 days after my 10 year anniversary, I was obviously deviated. A lovely woman on the beach told me about an article she read about “The ring finder”. My sister in law immediately contacted him and the rest is history. He located not one, but both of my rings in 30 minutes. I’m forever grateful!

My father in law lost his wedding ring 8/12 at 11:15 am. Friend of ours found The Ring Finders and John responded instantly. John searched for an hour and twenty minutes, then we heard the words we were all praying for… “I found it!” Low and behold, at about 7:00 pm, there it was, Dads wedding ring, it was buried 10 inches under the sand in waist deep water and John found it!!! Now it is back on his hand where it belongs ?? Thank you John!

Someone contacted ring finders because my daughter lost her cochlear implant which she uses to hear, which we thought she might of hid it in the backyard. he was more then willing to help, was prompt, came next day when he came to our home, he diligently looked over an hour for her Implant. At the end of the day, he didn’t even charge to come out and try and help us find it. He’s personable, friendly with kids, professional, and shows good character. I really recommend his service.

My daughter lost her ring at 8pm last night while in ankle deep water after a storm. I thought for sure it was gone. The following day a friend sent me his link that she saw on Facebook. I wasn’t going to call because I thought there was just no way but I did. He came out right away and my daughter showed him approximately where she thought she lost it. Less than a hour later he found the ring which wasn’t so close to where she showed him. I still am in disbelief. Unbelievable! He was amazing!! Definitely worth calling if you loose any jewelry at the beach, even in the water!! Thank you so much!

My mother-in-law passed away right after their 45th anniversary. Since than my father-in-law wore her wedding ring and cross on a necklace around his neck. Thinking he was keeping it safe he put it in his beach bag while we were down the shore this week. When he reached for a towel from the bag he must’ve inadvertently knocked the necklace out. We didn’t discover this until we had gotten home. Needless to say he was devastated. I remembered seeing a post a month ago about the Ring Finders and quickly looked John up. Within 2 hours he was here searching for the ring. Less than an hour later my father-in-law was reunited with his most cherished possession. Thank you, Ring Finder, for reuniting my in-laws again.

Today you made what seemed to me like the impossible happen. The little diamond moon charm that meant so much to me and my sister and was no bigger than my pinkie fingernail is in my hand.
When my sister’s necklace broke and the charm fell into the sand yesterday, we hunted for over an hour with no luck. Then a wonderful 8-year-old girl we didn’t know saw us looking and offered her help. She and her brother and father used their metal detector and sieve for at least another hour before we all decided that we had to let it go.
But I don’t let things go that easily, so when I got home, I went online and found your website. When I called, you were calm and confident. you said that if the charm was there, we would find it.
The phrase “needle in a haystack” kept running through my mind on my way to meet you. The beach is so big and the sand can bury something that small so easily, never to be seen again.
But once I was able to show you the area where the charm had fallen, it was only a matter of minutes before you turned up the spot of sand where the little charm lay, still partially buried, but sparkling in the sun. What a happy moment! I will never forget it.
Your calm, confident patience were just what was needed for the job, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for making what seemed like the impossible happen

Yesterday while I was on the beach near the water, I took off my rings to put on sunscreen and placed them in the velcro pocket of my beach chair. I only placed them there thinking that I would just put them right back on again, but I forgot about them.
Eventually we moved our chairs from near the water up to the dry sand and about an hour later I suddenly remembered my rings and checked the pocket but they were missing. I immediately had a meltdown and was sobbing because I knew that they must have been lost in the sand and that they could be anywhere.
My family and I all started searching and other people joined in to help out. After searching for about an hour without any luck and with it getting later in the day we knew that we would have to leave the beach without the rings.
Before we did, we searched the web and found John Favano’s number from The Ring Finders and gave him a call. It was so hard to leave the beach without the rings, but I was comforted knowing that there was still hope.
I was praying and reading the many testimonials on the ring finders and gained more hope and confidence that John would be the answer to our prayers. We met John around 5:45 on the beach the next morning and he found both rings in less than an hour and a half about 6-10 inches below the surface of the sand.
We never would have found my rings without John’s help and skills. He was so kind, humble, and professional! What an amazing work that John and The Ring Finders are doing for people everywhere! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I lost my wedding ring in the Atlantic Ocean this afternoon at 1:45pm.
Unfortunately, Donna asked if I wanted her to hold it for me on the walk down and I said something to the effect of, “Nah. It’s not going to fall off.”
So about 2 minutes in the water and it falls off. I never felt that attached to it other than it being my wedding ring. Until I lost it and I felt terrible. Maybe some of that was the feeling that Donna somehow knew that it was going to happen. We looked for awhile but there was no way we were finding it. Every bump on the floor turned out to be a rock or shell. I paced around for a little bit and then decided just to go home. Then I wondered if there was a site I could post a photo of my ring just in case someone ever found it.
That’s when I stumbled on theringfinders.com. I sent a message on Facebook (2:45pm) and about 5 minutes later, John Favano sent me his phone number to give him a call. At 3:07pm (just checked my phone log) we briefly talked. So now, I was waiting on a guy that may or may not show up and may or may not find a wedding ring in THE Atlantic Ocean if and when he got here. Then, my phone rings, John says that he is at the beach and to come meet him. We are off to a good start all things considered.
All week, we were talking about how small the beach has become over the years but walking over the dune I never remember it seeming so big. There was no chance we were finding it. At least when it is lost for good, I will have the satisfaction that I at least I tried everything I could think of. Donna and I are at the beach with John pointing out where I am pretty sure I lost it. Thanks to the dude that made sand dolphins btw.
John is walking a grid from the beach all the way into the water about chest deep. From the beach into the water…back to the beach and then back into the water. He stopped to dig a few times but nothing. Then he looks up and asks me what my ring looks like. This dude found my ring less than 4 hours after it fell off.
That is unbelievable! Call John Favano!

My husband Scott and I are so grateful to have been referred to The Ring Finder while on vacation in Ocean City. He found my husbands ring within minutes of looking. He had gotten out of the ocean and went to apply lotion and it slipped right off. We just got married during the Covid 19 and finally got to get away and the excitement continued. Thank you for your service, communication and reliability.

John’s ring finding services are impeccable. He let me know when he was available, called the day before to confirm and gave me a half hour heads up arrival notice. He felt completely trustworthy to search for a precious lost ring. It’s his hobby but also a skill generously offered to help find a ring that has many levels of value for me. I lost a gold band while giving my dog a bath on our deck. It traveled somewhere covered in abundant fall leaves from our humongous beach trees. He warned us against racking since we could accidentally discard the ring with the leaves. So the ring was totally lost from view. This ring’s design replicates one my mother wore and my closest friend wears an identical ring. Within 15 minutes he successfully located my treasured ring making me truly happy. In deep appreciation of John’s kindness and services.

I lost my wedding ring in Philadelphia on Thursday when I was playing kickball at a work event. After my co-workers and I spent nearly two hours looking for the ring, my wife gave me Rich Hageney’s number who then referred to John Favano. I gave John a call around 4 in the afternoon and he made the hour long trip to Philadelphia to help me look for a ring. Roughly, 45 minutes later John called over to me with the good news that he did indeed find my missing wedding band. I am so grateful to John and would definitely recommend his service to anyone who finds themselves in a similar situation. Hopefully, I will not find myself in similar circumstances next year…..

I had such an amazing experience today when John and his friend rich came to look for my ring! I had lost all hope I’ve had someone else come to search for it before and I had such low expectations. I was just going to try it as a last resort but gosh am I glad I did! They started searching and I was watching for a bit just to see if they would get anything quickly. I then went to the grocery store with the kiddos because I needed to grab a few things. Rich texted me to see if I was coming back soon and told him I was checking out at the register. Came home and John told me that rich wanted to ask me a question. I said of course with baby in hand walking down the yard I saw John turn his GoPro on and at first I was kind confused then I come down and rich walks up and asks to see my picture of my ring again. Then as soon as I show him he goes looks a lot like this one doesn’t it? And I full blown cried. I am so thankfully for them today. They did an absolutely amazing job and I am so beyond thankful. I cannot express it enough!! These guys will find it if you can’t! I promise you! Thank you again so much.

So this has been our past 24hrs, from playing with the pup outside in the snow, to losing an engagement ring in the snow, to searching until midnight to give up frustrated. Working from home today, waiting for dicks sporting goods to open so I can go in to get a metal detector in a snow storm, to searching for hours until calling John at The Ring Finders South Jersey. He drove as it started snowing hard again to help us find our ring within five minutes. Thanks again John! Please take it from Emily and I, call The Ring Finders South Jersey at 215-850-0188 right away!

I am not a writer of reviews (so much so that I am posting this through my son’s Facebook page), but had to make an exception to sing the praises of John Favano. Thinking I had lost my wedding band under a friend’s deck on Easter Sunday, I texted John hoping to hear back from him the next day. To my astonishment, he called within moments to see how he could assist. Due to the later time in the day, we planned to meet the next afternoon.
I never had the chance to meet John and testify to his actual services as the lost ring was miraculously found (thank you, Saint Anthony) later that evening. The fact that this stranger was willing to respond to my heartfelt needs on Easter Sunday was amazing. The fact that he called me back after I texted to let him know the ring had been found to tell me how happy he was to hear the good news restored my failing faith in the innate goodness of some people! Thank you, John. I’m hoping that I won’t need to reach out to you again, but will do so without hesitation and would recommend this caring gentleman to anyone needing his services.

I have to share my experience! I lost my wedding ring in the ocean 2 weeks ago in North Wildwood and was really upset about it. Went on a FB group and John was recommended to me. I texted him late that night which was a Friday and he was out looking for it the next day waist deep in the ocean for at least an hour. We didn’t have any luck… until last night he reached out again saying he knew someone (a fellow metal detector) who had it! I just picked it up from him!!!!
I can’t believe after 2 weeks it was even found and even more so the effort John put in to make sure my ring was returned to me even though he didn’t it himself is exactly what you want to hear about!!!
So next time you lose something at the beach contact John!!! Thanks so much again John!!!!

I called John after losing my wedding ring in the sand 4-5 hours prior. He told me that he would be at my location within 1.5 hours and arrived even faster than his stated time. I could tell by his confidence that we we going to find my ring and that is exactly what happened.
Within two minutes of getting to the approximate location, John used his metal detector equipment and bucket to pull the ring from the grips of the deep sand. Look no further than John Favano metal detection.

John came to our rescue at 1 in the morning! My friend lost her engagement ring at a sand bar, after an hour of searching we had given up. Luckily John picked up the phone and came out as soon as he could. He was incredibly thorough, scanned the area (and beyond) about 4 times and found the ring!

Picture this: it’s my friend’s bachelorette weekend and all we wanted to do is get a good tan in. On day two of beautiful weather, drinking rosé, eating Wawa sandwiches, and laughing about life, we suddenly see our bride jump up and say she can’t find her ring. We all immediately run over and are on our knees digging through the sand. The sun is beating on us, some tears were shed, texts to each others significant others is in full swing and we decide to give the bride some space. For two hours we all blacked out. Some took turns talking to the bride, random civilians pulled out their metal detectors or sifted through trash, others comforted from afar, and one friend decided to draw a ring on the sand. We felt helpless. Once John appeared, it was so simple. He found her ring in under 5 minutes and we all ran to her once she confirmed she had it. If you are ever in this terrible position, please call John. Thank You!!!

I put my rings on my lap for a minute and stood up to move my chair, realizing they dropped. Could not find anywhere. We frantically tried looking in the sand when someone gave me John’s number. He called back right away and kept in touch of his eta several times. We didn’t move from the area, and after searching for a bit he found both!! I would have been devastated had I lost them. We were beyond grateful!! Thank you John!!

John saved our night!! He arrived very quickly after we called, was very professional and got right to work. I was devastated and had lost all hope after forgetting my ring in my beach chair’s side pocket. We had a large group looking for it, plus other helpful beach-goers, with no luck. John arrived and found it in 5 minutes flat!! Don’t waste your time on your hands and knees combing the sand, John and Ring Finders is the best and most successful solution! Thanks so much!

In a pickle where my wedding ring was nowhere to be found after leaving the beach in OCNJ. John was there within 30 minutes and found it buried in the sand! Couldn’t have hoped for a better experience

I was the Ring Finder’s 10,000 recovery. Both my wedding band and engagement ring were found by John Favano. My grandma had gotten his info from a friend and we called him after I realized I had accidentally put them in the cup holder of my beach chair! We had a rough idea of the area but John noticed their actual location was a little further out. I was shocked by the depth that they were buried and how quickly he was able to find them! In fact, I’m still in awe from the experience and will forever be in his debt. 5 ⭐️s is not enough 🤩

John is amazing, he found my sister-in-law’s lost rings IN the ocean!!!

The rings, which had sentimental value, fell off her finger while in the ocean, and he came with his metal detectors and found both of them within an hour. We were stunned.

After returning home to Delaware from a day in Ocean City, I realized I had lost my wedding band, engagement ring, and an accent ring. I searched the internet and found an article that mentioned John. I reached out to him via text and he immediately called me. We discussed the details of the situation and concluded the conversation around 11pm. 4:15 am, I received a text message with a picture of my rings. Not only did he find my jewelry, but I didn’t even have to go back to Jersey to retrieve them. He met me in Delaware.
John is phenomenal!

It started out as a beautiful Memorial Day morning.  The wind finally backed off and the waves were semi-clean and the water was warm.  Just what the doctor ordered…
So I’m headed down to 11th street with the key wrapped in my NEON GREEN TOWEL.  I put it as I always do where I can keep an eye on it while I’m in the water.  I paddle out, catch a few fun ones, then I see the tractor headed toward my towel.. thinking to myself “this guy sees my NEON GREEN BEACH TOWEL right?” After a little while he was done and I could see my towel so I decided to head back grab a coffee.  I walk up to my NEON GREEN BEACH TOWEL and ##$%#?? Key is gone. Cellphone locked in the car.  St Anthony St Anthony please come around… no luck, so we wind up calling Jon..
Long story made short, he shows up with his equipment and gets to work..
After an hour or so he finally calls us tells us to come down to the beach. I’m thinking sh*t, at least he tried.. I walk up, he has a bummed look on his face like ‘I’m really sorry’, then pulls the key out of his pocket.. Surprise! Great acting job John!

I lost two very sentimental rings in Avalon this past weekend. After finally realizing, a friend called The Ring Finders and John quickly responded. I met him the next morning and described the rings expecting to be searching for a bit. Right after I showed him a picture of the rings he pulled them out of his pocket….he had already found them!!! So thankful for people like John and The Ring Finders!

I lost my 1962 heirloom wedding ring in the sand while surfing in Wildwood. I had to catch the ferry back to DE and had to leave. I didn’t know what to do, then I got recommended to John by a Facebook group. He was amazing from start to finish. I gave him a rough area of where the ring may be. He worked his magic and round it in hours.
This ring means so much to my family and I, John is a miracle worker in the flesh! Cant express how cool of a person and thing he does to help people that are in need.

He was so friendly and made the whole experience enjoyable and stress free!!! Hopefully we don’t have to use him again (cause it means we didn’t lose a ring) but if we ever did, we wouldn’t be stressed cause he is the guy for the job!!!!

I am writing this review with a big smile as John found our ring which means a lot to us, he was on time and very professional, he found the ring in few mins which we were searching for 3 days as the place we lost was cricket ground with dense grass. He definitely has eyes for lost things. Am glad we reached to him.👍

When my wife lost her engagement ring and wedding ring on the beach we spent hours searching for them and I lost hope of ever finding them. We found out about John through a friend and within a half hour of calling him he was on the beach searching for the ring. It took him about five minutes to find them. I cannot thank him enough.

After losing my husbands ring in the dry sand in Longport, and searching for over an hour, I called Ring Finder to see if they could save the day. As soon as I called, John was here in under 20 minutes and found the ring we were searching for in 15 seconds. He said it took longer to turn the machine on than it did to find the ring itself. Thank you ring finder!!!!!!

I’m honestly still shook and can’t believe that I have my ring back. After hours of searching around the house and yard and asking the lifeguards at the beach, I figured my wedding ring was gone forever. I was about to give up but my sister in law mentioned that she had seen an ad for Ring Finders, so I gave John a call. He gridded off the area of the beach where I mentioned I might have lost the ring and within 15 minutes, he found it, dug it up, and returned it to me. My wife and I couldn’t be more appreciative and would recommend John to anyone that finds themselves in a similar situation on the Jersey Shore. Thanks again!
