Icon4 Rolex Submariner Stolen Serial No: 467673W8

Rolex Submariner Date (116610LN) watch stolen in Ibiza in the early hours of Saturday morning. This is a stolen Rolex Submariner watch - please contact me if found.

Serial number: 467673W8
Model reference: 116610LN

Detail:

Approached by two men outside a nightclub in Ibiza who talked to me and then one grabbed me and the other grabbed my wrist and physically removed watch and then ran away.

Please be careful when travelling to Ibiza with your watch. I have reported the incident to the police and they are currently experiencing a significant increase in watch crime. Another individual tried to take my friends Rolex last night.

Here we go again.
Now everyone give their sympathies only to never hear from the OP again.

I’m glad you’re still in good health! Hope they will find your 116610LN with serial 467673W8 soon!

Um, maybe because the guy to whom you just responded is the OP? Ugh, this is just the kind of response that makes the forum a less congenial, friendly, fun place.

Lol! Thanks for the heads up! Didn't realize it was the OP. Sorry if I ruined the fun for you on the forum, but mark my words...happens all of the time. 1 and gone about how someones Rolex was stolen.

absolutely sucks, & sorry to hear......please file the police report and report it to Rolex. hopefully cops have an idea as to who it may be and can pursue the case further.

sincerely hope the watch finds it's way back to you in the future.

All good and appreciate the response. And no doubt — I see the bogus posts too; this one seemed pretty legit with SN etc. but I guess time will tell!

OP keep us posted. Had to google ibiza.

Yes, it was my Rolex and now registered as stolen with insurance, Rolex, Art Loss Register and The Watch Register. I think it is pretty unlikely it gets returned to me but hopefully I have made it as hard as possible for that watch to continue getting sold on.

I should have googled Ibiza watch crime before going, it seems to be at an all time high. Another group of men tried to take my friends Sea-dweller off his wrist on Sunday night but we managed to stop them. Not that watch crime is new news for those of us living London, but I wouldn't take a watch to Ibiza again!
