Thank you for sharing your story! That is just so bad. Lucky you weren't hooked up with Gemma, (Sons of Anarchy) because you could be Dead right now...

I mean she could have really did a number on you. Glad your ok

Any word on if they caught her yet?

these are gangs that roam from New York City to South Florida to Las Vegas and so forth...always targeting men with expensive watches/jewelry at high end bars/restaurants. And the players change all the time. I remember a couple of years ago Fort Lauderdale was hit, multiple reports in the newspaper, and I am sure not everyone comes forward, understandably...sorry for the OP
Hopefully these posts and articles serve as a warning to others...

No word as of yet. I will let karma get back at her and the people involved with her.

That sucks! I know how you feel. I agreee though, karma is a bitch. No bad deed goes unpunished...

Good news, the watch was turned in for service almost 10 years later and rolex contacted me that they have a claim from me and the new owner. The new owner is trying to get refund from his jeweler and I certainly want the watch returned to me. I only enjoyed it for a few months before it got stolen!

Wow that is a crazy story!

Brilliant, what a great outcome

That's great that it finally turned up like this. Had the watch travelled far? Thank you for the update!

[Booth9999]

Excellent news. I’d love to hear more on where it went.

no it was bought in 2015 and stayed in tampa i presume by legit buyer that bought stolen watch. rolex has 2 claims and he has to tell rolex that I am the rightful owner but im sure now he wants compensation from rolex/jeweler since the wach has almost doubled in price in 2015.

In honesty, rolex should just return the watch to me and I shouldnt wait for the other party to entame and fulfiil their refund process.

I saw the date of the original post and was pretty stunned - very happy there's a good ending.

[Watchmanaz]

Man sorry to hear this! Hope you weren't injured or anything!

[walds11]

Happy ending!

[ColoradoTime]

Wow. Really amazing. Thanks for the follow up!

Wow, thanks for sharing this. Good that you got your watch back and yeah agree that Rolex should return it first (after all you have a police report etc to show that it belongs to you).

This is what happened to the idiots that stole Sonny Barger's motorcycle. As quoted from Barger "We rounded up everybody who was responsible, tied them up, and took them over to my house on Golf Links Road. . . . Every half hour or so, the front door would open and another accomplice was tossed into the living room. When we found the last guy the punishment began. One at a time we bullwhipped them and beat them with spiked dog collars, broke their fingers with ball peen hammers. One of them screamed at us, 'Why don't you just kill us and get it over with?' . . . Moral of the story -- don't get caught stealing a Hell's Angels bike, especially if it's the president's." Karma can be a b*tch.
