Quote:Art detective Arthur Brand told Sky News the heist is "the theft of the decade" - adding that in order to recover the "priceless" items, police will need to find the culprits in just one week.
"These crown jewels are so famous, you just cannot sell them," Mr Brand said. "The only thing they can do is melt the silver and gold down, dismantle the diamonds, try to cut them. "That's the way they will probably disappear forever.
He continued: "They [the police] have a week. If they catch the thieves, the stuff might still be there. If it takes longer, the loot is probably gone and dismantled. It's a race against time."

Far be it for me to disagree with Art detective Arthur Brand but I think they were likely stolen to order.
In and out in 5 minutes and no violence used , impressive.

Lol. Just LOL.
The french crown jewels ... gone ... but not forgotten.
The heist of the decade took about as much time as a French man having sex.
Sorry!

Crazy how brazen thieves have become! I kinda wondered about it being for someones private collection. If you want something that rare, your going to keep it locked up for your enjoyment only anyway.
