Ladies and Gents, It’s been about a month since my trip to London and I had an incident while I was there. While walking back from dinner with my wife, I was robbed of my Chopard LUC 150. It’s taken me a while to process what happened and frankly, to get ...
As watchonthewrist wrote, please give us few pictures of your Chopard with its serial numbers. We’ll keep an eye on it. Hope everything will be better soon. Best wishes Alkiro
I appreciate your concern. Thankfully, no one hurt, just my pride. I’ve attached photos below. I’m hoping it pops up sometime in the next few years. Hopefully from an auction house which will do the proper thing when notified it was stolen. ...
sneakattack, Deep sympathies! However, there are not many platinum L.U.C 150 and as it is a piece unique, it will be difficult to service or hide. Did you inform Chopard After Sales department? Regards, MTF
my thinking exactly, so I immediately notified the global sales manager I met earlier this year. He notified all boutiques and the service center to keep an eye out for the watch. Still, the kind of person to do this may never send it in for service. We’l...
sneakattack, I also informed him but that was before I found out you already did. Not your name but the watch is unique. in any case, once they see the watch, they know you already. Regards, MTF
one cant be too careful these days I guess. I hope you were not physically hurt tho. Thanks for sharing your story with us thus reminding us to be always vigilant of our surrounding. It is a beautiful piece and I sincerely hope she will find her way home ...
I wanted to update the forum with some developments in this case. After the theft of this watch in September 2017, I notified Chopard and they promised that they would keep an eye out for the watch. On Monday, I received a call from Mr. M at Chopard. They...
So, I'll write a different thread on the entire experience with dealing with watch recovery, but I thought an update would be good. 1) I drafted a letter (or rather, my lawyer did) and sent it to the Beijing auction house as well as their NYC office. The ...
Most likely at the restaurant I was eating dinner. It's one of those things where I never worried about such an action before. I don't want to say I'll worry about it now, but at the very least, it's in the back of my mind. Update: The Beijing officer ind...
So, apparently the consigner of the watch isn't bothering to meet with the police, which is something I expected. As a result the only proof of ownership is mine. Also, I was informed by my lawyers that there is a law enforcement treaty between China and ...
... have two stolen pieces floating around out there (Lange 1 "Tokyo " #08/25, caseback 178783; and Lange 1A ##39/100, caseback #117439) -- but I did recover another stolen piece a decade after it went missing, so sometimes positive outcomes DO happen! I'...
I’ve read of several failed recoveries over the years, so I’m not super optimistic, but we’ll see. As it is, the watch remains in the possession of the Beijing police. I’m hoping that reason will prevail. If anyone has experience with the Hong Kong used w...
