Lol jesus christ. Gold with diamonds rolex asking if it will be noticeable. Probably the least subtle Rolex I've ever seen in my life.

My wife and I met my friend at a restaurant one day who brought a close friend of his that was a magician.
The magician did a few tricks and stole the watch off the wrist of one of the people there. He did show how he did it - much like Apollo did in the video. What I started to understand is that each successive trick was based on an action performed in a previous trick. During an early trick he made someone make two fists and he grabbed their arms to bang their fists together. We may think it's showmanship but actually he's lifting the watch during that move for a later reveal. One thing he did mention is the reason he didn't do that trick on me is because I was wearing a sub on a bracelet. It's much easier to identify someone with a strap watch in the group to lift for the trick. |

Wow I"m very sorry to hear, that's terrible! I still wonder how a pickpocket can lift a watch with a bracelet...the leather strap is easy (well, easy for a criminal...).
