Important is to mount/bolt your safe to the wall , another method which i did in my old house is to put cement/brick on side and top of the Safe that way will make it hard for em to carry away. reason i dint do it on my new house wife complain ugly  :Laughing_on_floor:

It is quite stressful to own an expensive watch nowadays. I always have to wear it or hide it.

Haha, good luck trying to sell my Lange if it gets stolen. I will hunt you down!!!!  :Scolding: :police:

Btw, why on god's good earth would anyone not have certificates for their watches? I can understand not having the box cause you might want to avoid taxes. And some boxes are heavy. But certificates? Maybe people move house and lose it.

Responsibility of owners to maintain the paperwork. If not, it is fair for prospective buyers to insist professional verification at seller's cost.

sorry for your lost. After reading this, make me think a lot before buying a preowned watch. What if somebody pawn it to the shop then we accidentally bought it.

That's one of the reasons I buy preowned almost always with b&p.

Sorry for your bad experience. My place was been ransacked 10yrs back. Felt blardy violated too. Anyway good to have a heavy safe and alarm system for your home. I guess it will be good to avoid buying preown watch without proper papers to discourage those thieves easlily selling away their loots.
