Guys, my watch was just [stolen], taken right off my hand. They approached and took it off my hand when Kate and I were just a minute away from the hotel. A guy just came up, roughly grabbed my hand, I pushed him away thinking: `Damn, I pushed him,` but he had already stolen the watch – a gift from an important person. Well, not a gift; I bought these watches from an important person, and they are my most favorite. Wanted to share with you.
