Stolen: Rolex Blue Submariner 116613LB S/N 568Z40S5

Stolen from my flat in Mid Levels, Hong Kong. Was in drawer in bedside table. Had plumber and A/C technician doing work in other part of flat. Noticed it missing a couple of days later.
Police report filed and listed on The Watch Register.
Still have box and warranty.

Sorry to hear Peter.

If it was the trades people, no doubt they’ll be caught quickly. Good luck recovering your Sub

Sorry to hear, hope you will find it soon! Just curious from your username, are you a bus driver in HK?

Thanks for the thoughts.
I was an A330 Airbus driver in HK until the company (Dragonair/Cathay Dragon) I worked for was shut down due Covid.
Now unemployed in Phuket, Thailand.
Watch went missing a couple of months ago. Just thought I'd list it here in case anyone did a serial # search.

Got it, you're a pilot! I always hear that Rolex is so common in HK that even bus drivers have one so I thought you were one of them

That's unfortunate, it reminds me of the new celebrity Derek Mak that got laid off as a pilot and is now in TVB.

Yeah, I used to fly with Derek; he'll be back in the air again soon.
In HK there're about 40 Rolex dealers (with little stock) and probably nearly as many grey dealers with completely full displays at ridiculous prices.
A surprisingly high percentage of bus and taxi drivers wear Rolexs, although they're usually 50+ and probably bought their aging Datejusts many years ago when prices were more affordable.
