Icon10 My Local AD Had a Break In This Past Week

The dumbass got zero watches as everything was in the vault when he broke in. There was even a sign on the outside that said they keep everything in the vault after business hours. I thought it was so funny I made a video about it.

It’s here https://youtu.be/3QgoWYJEyws if you’re insterested.

I still don’t understand how you don’t even stake the place out before just crashing in there? Unreal!

Hahaha - good video

Maybe the thief swore at the end because there were no SS professional models in the case

Employees of that AD earn their corn refilling and emptying all the cases every day.

Wow that is just a dumb idiot not realizing that they put jewelry up every night. He really thought it was going to be display cases full. Was that a sh— or a fu— when he realaized ? Lol. I would think most insurance companies would have a binder for the jewelry to be locked up at night anyways. He will be in jail real quick for stupid crimes.

Hope he left his name and address behind so he can be added onto the waiting list for his list of Rolex watches he wants.

What an idiot. It won't be long before someone with his diminished mental capacity is caught. Sadly he'll probably be quick released for the exact same reason.

I think he’d been in the shop beforehand or he wouldn’t have known which case to run towards.

His experience was no different than that of your typical customer looking for Rolexes. In fact it was probably even better as there was no snooty salesperson to give him attitude.

This is almost unbelieveable. It really looks like an SNL skit.
