Stolen GMT Master IIC M series
Two armed intruders came into our home and took valuables.
We were tied up and threatened to be killed if made any noise. Fortunately no one was injured (including my 10 months old daughter). Some of the watches taken were: my daily wear GMT Master IIC Serial M421699 (116710LN) and Grand Seiko Model SBGA015 (Serial 640250) Watch out. |

Thanks. Believe or not, they are in custody now. Suspects are both 16 years old. Not formally charged yet, but soon will be, I hope...... Hope I get my watches (and other sentimental items, such as my wife's mother's wedding ring, my father's Date Just....). Be Safe. S/F.

Thanks for kind words everyone.
At least, the suspects are not on the street anymore. Will keep you posted when I find more about the case. Home owner's insurance covered "some" of the loss, but not all. If they are convicted, I will have to file civil suit against their parents/guardian AND restitution.....Long, long process. Again, thanks for keeping eyes wide open for my watches. S/F |

Scary stuff. Glad to hear you and your family are safe. best of luck in getting your stuff back. Hope the cops in south africa are better than the ones in chicago. I was robbed a few months back as well. Useless CPD. Practically solved the damn case myself but never got my stuff back. Now i have 16 cameras and 2 monitoring services. Stay safe.
