Would you chance a rolex?

Well would you chance bidding on one of 12 rolex watches 'recovered' by CAB? Will they even get as far as being offered to joe public?

Probably be sold on eBay! Didn't cab do that previously? If they were taken in yesterday's raids I suspect it could be along time before they are flogged. I'd say there is a lot of paperwork to be done before they are fully under cab ownership.

Yeah, I remember a Rolex being sold by CAB a while ago.

Not sure if I would be bothered taking a punt - they're most likely not rare watches and they're not under-the-radar enough to only appeal to watch fans.

There'd probably be enough publicity (thejournal would churn out 12 inane articles about it) that it probably wouldn't go cheap enough to make it worth your while.

They are often "high end" Rolex also when means gold and diamonds......which won't usually appeal to the normal punter.

Yup, these lads would not be very refined in their taste. A bit of bling and a luxury name does it for them.

Somehow I doubt if they have box and warranty included :-)
