Yeah I’m an Omega guy
which makes life much easier…I know he’s an RL fan…I wonder if RL watches will ever get more respect… 🧐
That is a blow too much to take.
Every time I read about these I wonder (assuming they were stolen from his house), did he have an alarm system? Did he have a guard dog? Did he have a burglar proof safe?(no safe is completely burglar proof), but I wonder what protections were in place to...
You have to wonder why a guy of his stature didn’t take the necessary precautions to safeguard his collection
I don’t even trust Bank faults anymore. I just checked the Internet, and I did not see any mentioned that his watch collection was stolen
Yes….
Of course it’s never your fault when someone breaks into your home but yes…and I know what you’re saying about safe deposit boxes…a little known fact banks are NOT responsible for thefts…all my pieces are individually insured (I actually checked before I ...
The watches are insured
but original art I keep off premises as well as some jewelry…
I'm with you on bank safe deposit boxes.
I do keep my papers and tags in them though. Picture borrowed from the interweb. ...
Thanks. I saw the safe picture on IG.
It was not one should have with a collection worth millions. No safe is burglar proof, but there are much better options than the one pictured.
You would think
they wouldn’t have left such an obvious mess…I would have wanted to get as much as possible as quickly as possible and leave the place tidy without drawing a lot of attention…🤔🥸🥷🏻
The cost
of insurance and security definitely factor into how many pieces I own and how much I pay for them… Also, one of the reasons I prefer to buy new.. otherwise you’re haggling with an insurance company about what a vintage piece might be worth.

That’s exactly what my wife said as they had some “friends”
visit them shortly before the the theft.
Sucks
Even though it makes the hobby less fun, it’s why I keep most of my pieces at the bank. I also made a hiding spot that nobody will ever find that I store my watches in at home. If they found it, I’d be shocked 😂
Yes, I get your point with your hidden place, but believe me, if you are victim of a home jacking, you will give anything you have. A good gun, they shoot your dog or threaten your family, you give them everything you have.
I am a criminal lawyer, and believe me, I saw things most of " normal " people cannot even imagine...
The only way to keep them safe is to forget where they are yourself!
You can't hand them over if you don't know where they are either....
