Stolen Watch Turns Up On eBay After 27 Years

A 1960's chronograph Tissot watch with a leather band that was stolen from its owner's home in 1984 has turned up on eBay, being sold by a vintage watch seller.

The owner of the watch was alerted to the auction by someone who did an online search based on the inscription at the back of the watch. Joe Mosbrook, the original owner, however, decided not to place a bid on the eBay auction and just thought this a very fascinating story.

The auction received more than thirty bids and closed at US$526.
