apparently it's a common con

someone watches what you put in your locker and then when you're working out, they go to the gym attendant and tell them they forgot their locker combination and to open it up for them. since they watched you, they can describe what is in the locker to the attendant which is usually the only proof of ownership they ask for

sucks to just lose a 20k value like that (even if insured)

no dealer would ever sell you 2, that just sounds like you're gonna flip it for a profit

My gym has personal locks only so it'd be kinda hard to pull that con.

How do you know it's a Rolex if you're not standing right up next to him staring at it? If this story is true (probably isn't), then the victim should know who it is.

some models are easily distinguishable, especially if you know what you're looking for

Just tried this scam at my local gym to see what would happen (on my own locker). The girl legit just gave me the master key that opens all lockers and told me to bring the key back when done

Wtf lol

I'm leaving my watches in my car from now on

How can you stand the crowds? The gyms in LA are packed right after work, so I go later at night.

This is a perfect example of the reasoning behind the "don't trust anyone" logic. It isn't that most people can't be trusted (most people are likely not trying to pull a fast one); it's because you don't know which people are the ones who can't.
