    Yes nobody harmed as house empty.

    Alarm went off at 17:33 I got back about 17:41 so they got in, found my safe, went upstairs found my CCTV hard drive, stole that along with my safe all within a couple of minutes.

    To me either alarm company or safe company employee knows something

    Eight minutes. So sorry Chunky. One is violated when he is so treated in his own home.

    Wow that is nightmarish stuff, I'm sorry to hear that. Are you able to disclose the name of the alarm company / type of safe (no worries if you'd rather not)?

    Really sorry to hear about your break-in, relieved to hear no one got hurt, and hoping things come around the right way in the future.

    Safe was installed by the supplier as per their recommendation of bolted down to a joist.

    My broker assured me that my policy was the best money can buy, we will now see.

    All vintage watches insured to their current MV.

    My modern AP insured to RRP, unfortunately this is trading at multiples of RRP.

    Alongside my watches my wifes wedding, engagement and eternity rings were stolen along with some other jewellery.

    Spare car keys, door keys and window keys were also in the safe.
