I Can Steal That!

The Breguet No. 160 , more commonly known as "The Queen" or "The Marie-Antoinette" may be the world's most beautiful watch. Commissioned for the French Queen in 1783, the watch was so complex that it wasn't completed until 34 years after Marie Antoinette's death.  In 1983, a master thief snuck into the L.A. Mayer Institute for Islamic Art and vanished into the night with the world's most incredible time piece.

Few heists have had as much of a cultural impact as the Norrmalmstorg Robbery.  While it may not have set any records for how much was stolen, this heist - originally planned to be a simple 15 minute job, turned into a hostage situation that lasted six days and saw the victims bond with their captors in a way the world had never seen.  This is the heist that coined the term "Stockholm Syndrome."
