Same applied for those when it comes to securing the things though. </p> Min on "(OT) "Pair armed with gun and axe target £500,000 watch"" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9289#post-97110 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 15:33:34 +0000 Min 97110@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Having read the article, they don't actually know if the watch has been stolen or not yet. This is the EEN remember! ;-) </p> kaputnik on "(OT) "Pair armed with gun and axe target £500,000 watch"" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9289#post-97109 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 15:31:39 +0000 kaputnik 97109@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Putting a £500k watch in a display case that is either smashable with an axe or accessible under single key control is security of the lowest and a very amateur order. I'd be surprised if the insurance pay out fully on it. In comparison, there was a bank robbery earlier in the year at the Natwest on George Street, and the sum of money stolen was in the order of £3,000. </p> <p>That's my professional opinion anyway. </p> chdot on "(OT) "Pair armed with gun and axe target £500,000 watch"" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9289#post-97097 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 14:32:48 +0000 chdot 97097@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>A lot of people on here haven't quite got used to the idea of £1,000 bikes!</p> <p><a href="http://www.scotsman.com/edinburgh-evening-news/latest-news/pair-armed-with-gun-and-axe-target-500-000-watch-in-rush-hour-raid-on-jewellers-1-2739927" rel="nofollow">http://www.scotsman.com/edinburgh-evening-news/latest-news/pair-armed-with-gun-and-axe-target-500-000-watch-in-rush-hour-raid-on-jewellers-1-2739927</a></p> <p>'You could buy a big house for that.' </p>
