No help from police regarding my Rolex Red Submariner. Would a lawyer or someone else be of help?
Summary: mp96r8 shares their experience of losing a red Rolex Submariner from 1971, received from their father, during an assault in Naples in 2002. Recently, they found a trace of it in Barcelona, but the Spanish police are unhelpful even after mp96r8 provided evidence of altered serial numbers. They express frustration with the police's response and seek advice on whether a lawyer or someone else might be able to assist, noting that communication with the police is problematic.
Hi, I lost my old Rolex, a red Submariner from 1971 I got from my father, back in 2002 in an assult on the streets of Naples and now after many years a trace was finally found of it in Barcelona, but police won't do anything. I got a picture out of the seller as shown below of the serial number and by the picture it seems as my serial number 3059778 is now changed to 3059722. For me it is clear that the last 2-3 numbers are different in sharpness and engraving, and the "Stainless Steel" text above was hit by the same operation too. Finally the original last digit 8 is still visible behind the new and last 2 as highlighted below. But will anyone be able to help with this now that Spanish police won't? what would you do?
they just replied that "they did not encounter anything suspicious" and communication with them is extremely difficult. Thanks in advance and best regards!
Italian and Danish police seems way different to work with.
