Positive news!
I have a question: when the watch was sent for service, did JLC detect that it was stolen?
Si let’s hope now that step by step you get news about the other watches.

No, they didn't detect it at the Paris Boutique... I do have some modest and realistic hopes on some of my watches, indeed... Thanks, Fx. [nt]

from my understanding there is a lack of rigor
There is still your name engraved and a search on the net we immediately find who owns the watch. In this story, many people have closed their eyes, don't you think?
No, my screen name has been removed, polished. It is not on the case back anymore... [nt]

Hi Amanico,
What an amazing and sad story. Kudos for the resolution in this particular case, but the wound is clearly still there.
I hope the key 5-6 turn up soon.
Best,
Claus
Life and pleasure always win. I am impatient to close this case in a definitive way. Merci, Claus! [nt]

Amazing outcome to a sad moment my friend...
let's hope there will resolution for the remaining pieces. Still cannot believe how something like this happens and it seems to be happening more often which is scary at times.
Luckily we have the community to help us search and spread the news.
This Community is outstanding, and the universe of collectors, too. Always willing to help and support. That's what I lived all along these years. Thanks, my dear Bruce. [nt]

This is a most awesome story my dear Nicolas! It was an unfortunate incident indeed, but meeting another gentleman to settle this matter brings some...
... Warmth to the heart!
I remember the story you told of another watch you recovered thanks to another gentleman friend some time ago. I deeply wish you'll be able to recover other watches my friend!
All the best
Abel
Yes, it was the Longines Diver. Good memory, my friend. Un abrazo. [nt]

Sorry to hear - and what a gentleman you are!
The other gentleman couldn’t have been luckier than crossing your path with this piece.
I remember you telling me the story, what a disaster that was - and several of them were so rare resp protos or otherwise irreplaceable pieces 😓
All the best to you my Friend - and again: Chapeau!

Thank you so much, my friend. I have to say that the other party involved was a gentleman, too. [nt]

When I first read this post I felt anger and then sadness for you.
When events like this happen in life I always have to remind myself that the most important thing is our family, our health and our friends. Material objects come and go and can always be replaced in some fashion. You are truly a gentleman and settle this in an honorable way. My heart goes out for your loss., Tony
Somehow I missed this post when you made it.
Finding any of your watches is a bit amazing. And this is a fascinating outcome for the watch; and you. How was it decided that the buyer would get the watch and not you?
Because it was a proto, with my name removed from the case back. Not my watch anymore. [nt]
