Orlando Bloom's home burgled in Los Angeles


British actor Orlando Bloom was said to be devastated after discovering that thieves had made-off with part of his prized collection of vintage wristwatches from his Los Angeles homeLord of the Rings and Pirates of the Caribbean star Bloom, 32, is believed to own more than 40 valuable watches, but the stolen pieces are known to have been among his favourites and could have a combined value of more than £200,000.

Although some of the eight watches are more than 40 years old, they were all described as being in "superb" condition.

Six were rare Rolex models and included a special antimagnetic version called a Milgauss that was one of the first 80 of its type produced in the 1950s.

Vintage watch experts say it could be worth more than £120,000, while other stolen pieces include a £20,000 Rolex Submariner of the type worn by Sean Connery in the James Bond movie Goldfinger and a 1970s Explorer model known as a "Steve McQueen" because it was of a type favoured by the Great Escaspe actor.

Kent-born Bloom, who was in New York at the time of the raid on his LA home, recently sold several watches from his collection to raise funds for the U.N. children's charity Unicef of which he is an ambassador.
