A man says his $26,000 Rolex wristwatch was stolen from a hotel swimming pool locker room while he went for a dip.

The incident happened at around 11:30 a.m. on July 17 on the 27th floor of the Eaton Chelsea Hotel on Gerrard Street in downtown Toronto.

The victim told police he placed his personal items, including the Rolex, into a changeroom locker and went for a swim. Police believe someone opened the locker between 11:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. and took the watch.

The watch is a Rolex Sea-Dweller 1665. Anyone who may have come to possess that type of watch is asked to contact police at 416-808-5200, or Crime Stoppers at 416-222-8477 (TIPS).
