Disappearing Rolex , the whole lot ........
A local jewellers in the North East of England had a sizeable collection of special Rolex watches in the window for the past 5 years or more.
They always had a window full of diamond encrusted daytonas & diamond encrusted ladies watches as well as standard models. The full lot has disappeared , they are all gone . They just have a window full of cheap watches now not one Rolex of any kind. They are not even in the shop . Never seen a disappearing act like that before. Surley someone has not just bought the lot ? some were £20k+ each |

Very odd indeed. I'd expect a gradual thinning. Maybe some made a generous offer for the whole lot they couldn't pass up.
