Was in Vegas Twice this year. Wore my Sub, OP and Pepsi in all situations and felt perfectly safe.

Although, while sitting with 2 of my mates in the Cosmo Chandelier bar, we were approached by a couple of top tier women out of nowhere. Came and sat at our table. Set the alarm bells off straight away. Turned out to be strippers trying to get us to the club. Does suggest that place is a hot spot for that sort of stuff, as others have said.

A buddy of mine was drugged by a girl in Vegas and got his watch stolen.

Short story….. he reported the watch stolen the following day. Fast forward 5 years…. Rolex called and said they had his watch.

Every time I’ve been to Vegas, I’ve worn my Rolex, sat at the, blackjack table for hours, until I lost all my money, and I’ve never been approached by any woman, professional, or otherwise. I’m such a loser apparently.

Sorry, OP, for all the unnecessary victim blaming and “glad it wasn’t me” responses. You deserve better. Wishing the best outcome for you.

Hm. She must know watches; OP Tiffany is not the most obvious 'in your face' Rolex out there. If it was a TT Datejust or a Sub Bluesy... maybe...

in any case; I hope it turns up - was it insured?

What a sad state of affairs. I'm not blaming you I'm just saying it's a shitty situation to not be able to bring your fun toys on trips.

Personally I would have no issue bringing a watch to LV. I am going to Tulum tomorrow and will not be bringing any jewelry just a Sinn U1

This is not really true - especially for females, the “Tiffany” Rolex is one of the most recognizable recently due to the hype on Instagram/TikTok etc.

Either way sorry to OP - can’t let your guard down. Everyone is speculating but if she really wasn’t a pro and didn’t actually drug him it could have been a regular girl that saw the opening and took it. Happens all the time on the party scene.

Vegas makes the headlines the most for whatever reason but Miami is pretty well known for this too.

Unfortunately people sometimes are asking for it. They wear expensive watches to attract attention, then they receive the attention they seek. Usually from attractive females. Then it goes bad. Kind of Russian roulette IMO.

Usually not enough room given spacing, though an RFID tag might be possible. QR code on the back (or dial) could help as easy to lookup, but still not a proper tracking device.

People are sometimes asking for it? You have two all-gold watches in your avatar. Do you not wear those outside the house?

Once you invite a stranger in a Casino who suddenly finds you irresistible up to your room after a 3 minute relationship, there are not too many dots left to connect for those with their faculties intact.

First you probably don't look like an easy mark. Girls aren't going to a strangers room if they think they are going to be badly harmed physically or sexually.

You are rarely going to find a worker girl at the tables. 1) The pitboss likely will weed her out and escort her away. 2) These girls aren't going to lose money to make money.

The most likely places you will bump into a working girl is at the busiest bar and free lounge at the hotel that's closest to entrance/exit, ride share waiting areas, slot machines, and heavy foot traffic on the strip like the lobby at Caesar or hallways that link hotels together.

Wow that sounds like an awful lot of expertise in a very specialised subject gained over years of doing whatever you were doing

You've got enough for a guidebook right there.
