GP MUSEUM BACK!!! Watches found, criminals arrested

Dear enthusiasts,

good news, hot off the press!

Sources at Girard-Perregaux report Swiss Police Forces managed to arrest two suspects on Saturday, who are charged to be involved in the GP Museum robbery of past Thursday.
Due to ongoing investigations of the authorities, no more details of the suspects and possibly involved persons can be unveiled.

Nonetheless, the probably most important news is all GP Museum pieces to be found!
Apparently the criminal suspects left the watches in a forrest nearby and several watches were slightly harmed during the robbery, but preliminary inspections point indicate the condition not to be critical.

Whether or not the Girard Perregaux Museum, which was open for public by private invitation only prior to the robbery, will open again remains undecided at this point.

That´s good news and quite a relief!!!

Have a great and particularly safe week!

I sure would like to know the details. Random robbery? Inside job? Found in the Forest? Curious. At any rate fantastic news for all.

The investigations are in full swing
