Interesting article about celebrity rolex theft
http://www.nydailynews.com/gossip/20...zing_orla.html
The women ransacked the house and made off with more than $500,000 in watches, cash and other booty, authorities said. Bloom collects rare watches, and his prized Rolex Milgauss from the 1950s is worth $250,000 alone, according to a Manhattan-based watch dealer. |

Interesting............6 months seems to me like an awfully light sentence for robbing a house of about $500K in valuables.

I'm gonna get all my watches appraised by the "manhattan-based jeweler" who consults for the NY Daily News! What a great insurance payout!
