Sunday 4, May - yesterday- between 4 :30 PM and 5:30 PM my shop was robbed . Three of the watches stolen are custom pieces of which there are either no other examples or are extremely limited editions. We hope that this will assist us in tracking down the thieves.
I would like to request your assistance in publicising the pictures and descriptions of these watches within online DOMESTIC OR INTERNATIONAL forums or websites and /or to ask you to keep an eye out for any of these watches should you be shopping in antique shops, pawn shops or online - ebay in particular.
As the total value of the watches is approximately $50,000 this is a serious matter for the police. The police do have the thieves on video and have their fingerprints tracking these people down is still quite random if they are not already known by police.
So, should you see or hear of any watches of these descriptions being sold anywhere it would be very much appreciated if you could contact either myself with the details or Detective Borysiencz or Detective Singh via email at: bory1seb@police.nsw.gov.au or by phone at 02 9265 4144. Please do not make any contact with the thieves. Please only contact myself or the police.
The pictures of 4 of the stolen watches are on my website:
www.vintagetimes.com.au/page/62/stolen_watches.htm-
You may download and post anywhere you like. I would additionally sincerely appreciate it if you you have the opportunity to forward the link on to any collectors or buyers of watches or post the information and photos on any forums you may belong to that you do that you do so.
As a small business person this is of course a devastating financial loss and I am sick about it at this moment. I can however assure you that my business will survive this setback.
Thank you in advance for your assistance and I look forward to finding these degenerate thieves and putting them in jail.
