That is terribly sad news
I would have been less surprised such thingd happen anywhere else but I could have hardly imagined such things happen in Switzerland, I am shocked...
I always feel so safe and secure in Switzerland, Most probably trains and stations are a good place for thieves to act. I also had such an experience long ago on the way to Baselworld but luckily it was only my iPhone that disappeared not a nice watch like your Pt Nautilus. Not sure airport are much better though (but airplanes probably a bit more…).
We'll keep an eye wide open in case and will not fait to let you know in case…
Do not forget to report the issue to PP if one day it comes back for service or repair...
Bon courage,
Mike

Stolen Nautilus 3800P
On friday, August 23th, 2019 my beloved 3800 Platinum has been stolen in a train between Geneva and Berne There is a paricular mark between 5 and 6 on the lunette, my dog loved the taste of platinum... May be someone vomes across this rare watch.... ...
let's hope you get it back
btw, my dog preferred steel, had exactly the same about 10 years ago its my ROO bezel
I‘m also very sorry for you, offcourse i‘ll keep my
eyes and ears open! Good luck 🍀 Grtz, Raymond
Sad to say, but we are no longer safe
To introduce our watches in web forum has likely facilitated the criminals and their hideous activities. I know that part of the fun is to share our watches with friends all over the world, share the joy and talk about them, but unfortunately it seems tha...
That is why i not show my Longines
I own a rare Longines Weems, so i do not post wristscans. Only wristscans from my cheap watches. Cheap is a figurative word. For some it is a cheap watch, for some others it is a year salery. ...
This is terrible news...
I’m very sorry that this has happened to you. I will add the photos of your watch to the list of stolen watches that have been reported. I can then keep an eye out on the market.
Sad
It’s so sad to have anything stolen from you, especially such a beautiful watch. I’ve mentioned it before, these thugs have zero moral zero respect for the work you’ve put in. They often see it the other way around. You have so they have a right to own it...
Nightmare
In a country where you think there is no criminality. Is it took off by thiefs, or is it took off from a table? Always wear a watch on a wrist while traveling, or tow it on your belly. The crimanals are a big problem. I always in for more police officers ...
Sorry for your lost...
Hope you find it soon. Just a hypothesis... could it be your dog swallowed the watch?
Indeed sad news
Patek should be notified of such incident in case it is sent for service. Sorry to hear such sad incident and will be on lookout on grey markets.
Very sorry to hear this. Ugh
Could you share how this happened? It is good to learn the methods of theft these thieves use so we can take precautions and guard against it happening again. Thanks!
Indeed, how did it get stolen - and was stolen?
The circumstances and as many details as possible, please.
Sorry Runie to hear about this terrible news ! Wish your 3800P be ...
back on your wrist soon !!
Very sorry for your loss. 😢
I sure hope you get it back. I sure hope you have insurance. Prayers will help bring back one's sanity. Geross
Awful.
Was the watch in your checked luggage or carry on. I assume it was not on your wrist when stolen. Very sorry. Make sure to send all the info to Patek.
Omg, that’s terrible news and so sorry for your loss. How did that happen in the train, your luggage was picked?
Anything we can learn to prevent? I’ll lookout on Chrono24 and other grey market dealers for you.

Dang!
How very unfortunate! I hope you get it back very soon. As others have said, do report it to PP, as well. Very odd for a theft such as this to happen on a train in Switzerland, of all places. A lesson for all of us in this so please share the details if y...

If you can get a police report,
You can submit your pictures, current contact info, and the police report (must have a complete police report) to Patek or your AD and they will keep it on file should it ever come back to them for service.
Added to stolen watch registry @ alphahands
I've added to the Alpha Hands stolen watch registry (free to post or search), hope it helps - alphahands.com
Absolutely shocked to hear this!
Not only the fact that it happened in Switzerland but such a rare beauty! Hoping that you will be reunited soon and the culprit gets caught 🤞🏻
I'm very sorry Runie, I wish you the best of luck
I hope that at least it wasn't a violent incident and you're well.
