Having said that this is why people should have their watches or jewellery insured no watch or jewellery even if it has great meaning or sentimental value IMO is worth losing your life or freedom for or the lives of even low life thieves that may result in the loss of your freedom just let them take it and stay safe and healthy is the best option IMO. I really don't think this is worse then those that have lost their lives to their watches being stolen from them either and is just a very sad example of the times we are living in.
