Partridge Jewelers

Partridge Jewelers, located in downtown Auckland, New Zealand, is a jewelry store that recently experienced a high-profile theft. The store is newsworthy due to the unusual circumstances surrounding the recovery of a stolen Fabergé pendant. A 32-year-old man allegedly swallowed the $19,000 diamond-encrusted pendant during the theft in November. Following the incident, New Zealand police took the suspect into custody and maintained continuous surveillance, waiting for the pendant to be recovered. After a six-day wait, the pendant was retrieved from the suspect's gastrointestinal tract through natural means, without medical intervention. The recovery of the rare 'James Bond Octopussy' pendant has garnered international attention, highlighting the lengths to which authorities went to recover the stolen item from Partridge Jewelers.
