Please Help: Stolen Speake-Marin Watches
Recently world renowned independent watchmaker Peter Speak-Marin was the unfortunate victim of a robbery in California, USA. The thieves were able to get away with the following three watches which are certainly very distinct and easy to identify. If you believe you have any information which may aide in the recovery of these watches or any other information which may help with the investigation please send an email direct to: speake-marin@speake-marin.com
Please note that Speake-Marin is an independent small watchmaker, not a large conglomerate so the loss of these watches from a both a personal and financial point of view is a huge blow.

I guess the theft was next to useless from the thief’s perspective as now no one will want to buy them.
Let’s hope so Ramsay, it always sucks when the little guy gets screwed.
