There should be lots of cameras from the bar to your room and odds are the local vice cops know who she is if they see her on video. Consider yourself lucky. The ones who drug you are better than the ones whose partner follows you both to your room and hits you over the head with his gun.
In LA a few years ago there was a gang driving up and down Ventura Blvd from Studio City to Woodland Hills. They looked for a guy with a Rolex on his wrist while resting his arm on his car door as they passed him, did a U-turn, and followed him home and robbed him in his driveway, sometimes forcing him inside for a home invasion robbery. Count your blessings.

I'm with Nick on this one.

In fairness, the OP does not appear to have been looking for sympathy, just providing details of his stolen watch.

I suspect he's feeling quite embarrassed about having been scammed like this.

I’d say OP has been heading like fly, I do it too sometimes, it’s just how the cookie crumbles. I hope it works out for he or she.

What a weird coincidence. My boss was in Vegas last week on a business trip. When she got back she was wearing a watch just like the one in the photo.

I’m sorry but when you engage with this situations and you wear a $$$$. market watch, then trash yourself…. this or similar will happen.

You should have known, tempting.

People are very judgemental on here.

Put your valuables in the safe whilst she is in the bathroom, before you pass out. Even better if you're going out to get intoxicated and have fun, leave the hot watch at home. Asking for trouble wearing that watch whilst drunk.

But hope they catch her and the watch is recovered. Some people are rotters.

Interesting, I would imagine he or she is working as part of a group to rob innocent over trusting people, I may be wrong, but I doubt the average Bimbo would recognize that watch as being a Rolex as it is one of the newer models vs a Sub, Daytona, etc...

Reddit posts are trolling the OP really hard. There have been multiple posts making fun of his situation… pretty unfortunate.

Man, some people are just ruthless. I bet every single one of us has done something boneheaded in our lifetime. Cut the guy some slack. Life lesson on situational awareness. Hope he gets his watch back.

You are 100% correct.
I definitely did plenty of dumb things in my twenty’s and a lot less often beyond that.
Probably a good thing I didn’t have a Rolex back when I was a wild child and partier.

He should have left his watch at home with his wife before his trip to Vegas.

Well, one of you wasn’t too trashed.

My sympathies for you misfortune in no way mitigates the absolute stupidity of your actions.

And as for your watch, in the words of Eric Clapton “don’t forget this fact, you can’t get it back…”

There are people who go to Vegas to party and then there are fools who are obvious marks wherever they go. When the latter arrive in Vegas, the working girls notice.

"Mistakes" are skiing with your car keys in an unzipped pocket, losing your keys/wallet while drunk, saying something you immediately regret, or missing an important flight.

Getting blackout drunk with more money on your wrist than the average net worth of a Vegas working girl...

Not his first time being a mark, I'm guessing.
