    Just getting the word out. This happened to a friend of mine if you all could keep your ears & eyes open for these Dirt Bags.

    OT......I had three watches stolen last Friday night in Ft. Lauderdale

    Rolex 1680 red sub
    Serial number 3843165

    [​IMG]

    A Lange & Sohne saxonia moonphase serial number 229961

    [​IMG]

    Blancpain 5200 serial number 1092

    Please keep an eye out and let me know if you see them or contact the Ft. Lauderdale police department. I have helped others recover their stolen watches through this site so I know it is possible. Feel free to copy and save the pictures and information and distribute it to anyone that might be able to help. Thanks for your help and support.

    I know this is not proper wruw content but I know these threads have a lot of traffic hence my decision to post here. I have also started a thread in the stolen watch section.

    A 1680 red and a Lange Saxonia?? :eek:

    I wish I could be of help, that's truly horrible that they were stolen. Hopefully they are recovered safely. I don't even know what I would do...

    Shit, this is really horrible, the kind of stuff I have nightmares about. I would have thought a rare watch stolen would be "easier" to locate afterwards because it's hard to sell, but a friend of mine was robbed of his 5970 platinum (100 made with the black dial...) and it was never found. Pieces of s$$t

    Really? Left them in a car for every one to see? If I am off to see relatives I take all my watches with me from home. Just using a 20 USD watch briefcase. Take care gents. Take care.
