If I fount it on a street I'd take it and will try to find an owner using a S/N (it usually works with an expensive stuff like this). If an owner couldn't be found, I'd sell it and keep the money, not gonna wear someones watches. To me it's like panties... too personal. If it would happen in some public place like this I'd contact security and give them the watch writing down the exact place and time where it was found and the name of the security officers that I was dealing with... I'm a long time recreational fishermen and often fish with people wealthy enough to buy $10000 gears. I once found a spinning reel (ZeeBaas 27 $1000) on the beach. Took me under an hour to find an owner using the S/N. You can't even imagine how happy he was to get HIS reel back. The happiness on his face meant much more for me thn money. If I found something valuable (don't care about the price), I'd do my best to find an owner. If an owner can not be found, the thing would be sold and money kept... YES, the guy is a theft.

Rolex for sale 4500.00

I would have handed it in. The guy is a thief.

If this guy didn't take it I am sure a TSA agent would have. I wouln't have touched it and left it right where it was.

I would have Captain Koons shove it up his ass while in a POW camp.....

Id turn it in.....I damn sure hope someone would do the same for me.

of coarse that guy took the watch. after he stole those shoes and coat and backpack... I would like to think I would have picked it up and tried to give it back to the lady. after all A rolex is expensive but a thank you bj is priceless.

I have a pretty high level of integrity...One can define themselves on what they do when one isn't being watched....This guy is a thief..Jerry Sandusky is a pedo child molester,but no one knew until the story broke...In one moment,he was redifined from the nice family man to a sexual predator...Always try to do the right thing...

Ask yourself a question. If it was your 6 grand watch,you would want someone to be honest and hand it in. Flip side though. What a dumb cunt.

Its easy to stand on the moral high ground on the outside looking in. I would love to say I'd return it. But I've never been faced with this dilemma. It was hard enough to return a $50 bill when it was mistakenly placed in my change for a $20, but I did it. A $6,500 watch on the other hand might be too strong a temptation. But I'd like to think I'd return it.

If he didn't take it, someone else would have. Good for him.... Too fucking bad for her.

It is theft, and there are cameras everywhere at a security screening at an airport, so the dude was stupid to think he would get away with it....but it is also stupidity on the part of the person who left it there without checking the bins.

...ok only thing I am thinking about is the fact that she is a slut....hell with the watch.....

been a man whom has traveled abit - i have called people back whom have forgotten their laptops and stuff - sadly i believe alot of us do not see it in the same way i do - yes in my opinion he is a thief and should be found guilty besides - having my experiences of travel - i know that these areas are all controlled by cams - it will be stupid to try like this bloke did

Guy is a thief, he knew who it belonged to. And it doesn't matter if it was a cheap watch or an expensive one, he still had no right to take it.

Obviously, you're under constant surveillance at the security check points. That guy was an idiot. Karma will come back for him. I would have turned it over to a TSA agent. If they kept it, oh well. My conscience would be clear. And it would have been on camera as well.

I'd turn it in for some favours... *muahahahahah*

dumb slut? She forgot her watch. The fucking geneous you must be, I bet you never forgot anything. And talk about minor league? That punk is in a fucking AIRPORT!! Does he think he is invisible? Just invisible to camera's? And to all you douche bags that justified it, are fucking thieves. He didn't just find it. He saw who left it, stashed it away from her view, and bailed as fast as he could. Best part was the look up to the camera so we could get a good portrait for the pigs. He might as well be a pick pocket. I cut some slack for people in dire straits, but if your getting off a plane with a laptop, you shouldn't be stealing fucking watches.

A few months ago i found a wallet full of money in a shopping mall and hand it to security filling a few forms. I don`t like to take advantage of other`s misfortune. Not to mention that wallet had a passport in it, so that unlucky fuck would have been in deep shit. And what this guy did, in some countries is considered stealing.
