What is worth the most... Speedmaster versus CK2913..?
According to the burglars we had Friday braking into our home while at work, the Speedmaster is..
They took the Speedmaster, a Sinn, a few vintage gold watches but left a CK 2913, a 165024 and a Patek Philippe...? The rest I had in the safe at my bank..
Maybe because the Speedmaster is a known watch?
Anyway, hopefully the insurance company will cover it

Sorry to hear this. And
You're right about the Speedmaster being a know watch but why on earth do they leave behind a PP? Is it vintage? I hope your lost wasn't big. Stay safe. Regards Tyler
Is vintage..
... Seems like they left behind the vintage watches (except the Speedmaster) and a Chronograph Suisse in gold and gold bracelet Best Hans
very sorry to hear about that Hans...
At least you are lucky not to loose all. I sincerely hope you recoversomething from the Insurance and pray you acquire back some if not all your lost treasures. Best Ed
I would have stolen the CK 2913, instead. ;)
Seriously, Hans, I'm very sad for you. I know what it is, my friend, and how you can feel. It will be time for you to upgrade your Speedmaster... 2998, or 2915, maybe? I wish you al the best, and do hope that your insurance will be better acting thn mine,...
Exactly..
That would probably be my approach. Sadly I have been offered a 2915 with papers and great condition that now is sold (I asked Sunday) :-( Well, when (if) the money come, will the hunt begin Best and thanks for your thought my friend Hans
Keep the faith, my friend.
The hunt will be long, but how exciting! What about the " Holy Trinity "? Best, Nicolas
Thats the idea :-)
291329142915 Is that a phone number? Is it Superman ? No, its the holy trinity 2913 2914 2915 2913 2914 2315 CK2913 CK2914 CK2915 But they also took my Canon 5D + 17-40, so I need to upgrade gere as well... Best Hans
Ouch!
Well, the camera can be easily replaced... It is a bit more complicated for watches... But now you have a superb goal to reach! Best of luck, my friend. It seems that we are having the same journey. Nicolas.
You are right...
You are right on the 5D, would have been worse with my old Leica collection, the "K", IIId, "Luftwaffe" ... Now sold¨ So we are on the same journey...Great and will be fun and interesting Best Hans This message has been edited by hans_jorgen_1968 on ...
Very sad news.
Well at least your news validates my wife's decision to get a safe at the bank to store most of my watches and her jewelry. At least you were not home when it happened. Best regards, George
You are right..
...but some watches need to be at home, to be worn I actually also have a safe in the cellar, here they tried to break in as well.... Best Hans
Sad news :(
I know the feeling of entering your living room with all the draws open, stuff everywhere and most importantly the nicest stuff NOT being there. I hope you will get some money from insurance so you can hunt in a descent way. Filip
I hope to
..and now I will have some vide surveilance installed as well... Have you tried this yourself? Best Hans
That's very sad - probably what most of us fear
I hope they get what they deserve!! Cheers
I understand your deep sorrow...
Hans, Everyone that shared with you the same very unpleasant experience feels the same. Is not only the watches, camera and other things but the bad feeling about the home invasion. Good luck with your insurance company and I wish that you can replace the...
The worast is..
...that somebody I do not know has entered my home.. thats also why I move to video surveilance now They did not take the CK2913 (too old?) They took the Speedy Maybe time for a CK 2915 now Best Hans
Oh, my goodness. I can scarcely imagine . . .
. . . the horror, Hans. Whoever the thieves are, I hope they only get a few Euros for it, and later discover they've been taken to the cleaners. Saddened, Art
So true..
...The money they took they have, but the watches and stuff they will not get much for ( I believe) Funny though. I had the Speedmaster in the original box which they did not take.. only the watch.. Best Hans
Sorry to hear about this, Hans.
I do hope your highly regarded Dynamic is safe, though. I wish for Santa Claus to bring you many watches to make up for those taken. All the best, Alex
Ho ho..
..ho and Merry Christmas to you as well You remembered My beloved Omega Dynamic aka my avatar aka my fathers watch for 25 years is saved. Was sitting in the box, but probaby looked too old and too beaten up Also a few other Dynamics were saved. They only ...
very sorry to hear this Hans. it seems to be happening more and more
one way to look at it is that a speedy is quite easy to replace. i know where there is a 1958 speedy with box and papers for sale. i hope your insurance covers you well enough to replace what you lost. best Graham
An unpleasant revelation..
and experience for you Hans. It's an imperfect world, thankfully no one was hurt and you will recover from this set back. Have pity on the people who need to steal or cheat to get by. cheers fernando
The worst..
...was from when we found out, until we had the police here and opened the door. What about "Futte", our 2 year old Cocker Spaniel. But nothing happened to him. He was only scared and was hiding when we came in. Thanks for your thoughts Best Hans
That is another common point with my story...
My ... Cocker Spaniel was there, and the first thing I asked was how is the dog! Knowing that nothing happened to her ( the dog ) made m feel much better. No one was in the flat when it happened, except the dog. Next time, I will take a Rottweiller, or a ...
Same discussion we have had..
... next time a bigger dog, or two Maybe a detector sounding like a big dog when burglars try to enter could be an idea... Have you also had unpleasant visitors lately? Best Hans
I haven't checked the forum lately. Now I am speechless of what...
...I can offer you in consolation. But I'm sure how deeply sorry I am to hear about this. The conspiracy theorist in me cannot help but imagine that there are shady individuals lurking into our forum and that some of our fellow members are targeted. Remem...
Very sorry for your lost, Hans!
But also happy that your great SM300 was left behind! Best Blomman
I am also happy..
..I kept the CK2913. I had been chasing a nice one for a few years. Over Christmas it will stay with me, or in the banks safe Best Hans
Hello Hans , sorry to hear your news ....
Hi Hans I am glade your dog is fine and no one was hurt.. You will be able to replace a modern Speedy . But it is really courious that they did not just take everything that was within reach. I hope 2012 will be better Best regards Bill
The Speedy was not so modern at all..
it was from 1968, but you are right, it will be much easier to replace. I also wonder why they took what they did. Have a great Watchtastic 2012 Bill Best Hans
