    Owned by insurance company since they had paid out to me

    I understand they made a recovery of some kind from the thief and offered a cheap purchase price to the new "owner" - who is the main...

    Rolex stolen watch register

    I have broad shoulders :-)

    We did sack the cleaners and suspect everyone including friends and family. But no proof in any direction.

    Nice to have some closure!

    Rolex stolen watch register

    This is all resolved with a conviction against the thief.

    Suspended jail, community service, repayment of value to another victim.

    Where to buy a deployant?

    The deployant on a watch of mine has broken. I've never bought one before (they've always come on watches I've bought rather than me getting them seperately).

    Where should I go to get to get a new...

    Ok, police have been round and I can say a bit more.

    Rolex stolen watch register

    If I discover which site it was I will name them. They obviously are happy to buy watches with no box or papers that are less than a few months old!

    Rolex stolen watch register

    Indeed - they are probably the biggest loser here. I lost excess and hassle, insurance company has made a partial recovery; new "owner" is out of pocket unless he can go back to the vendor (an...

    Rolex stolen watch register

    In this case the insurance company registered the watches, and I believe the hit was when a new owner sent the watch in for service

    When the full investigation is concluded I will tell all!

    Re: Gemcheck card as an insurance settlement

    I suspect they actually pay less than the face value for the card - which is why I asked. The discount I would want would be less than 10% of the card, and on a rolex and an omega - so there may be...

    Re: Portuguese Swap

    I had only bought the 3714 from Sales Corner a few days previously, Like New in Box. But I had really been wanting a 5001.

    So, a perfect exchange :-)

    I gave up using Quidco a while ago, and have switched to topcashback as their rates seem to be consistently highest (that is what their USP is)
