I am seeking information regarding an extensive collection of rare antique gold jewelry, sterling silver, and a custom Bulova Accutron wristwatch valued at over $150,000. The victim, a lifelong career antiques dealer who amassed these unique pieces over 46 years as her retirement fund, had her home burglarized in Winter Garden, Florida. The primary suspect identified in the theft is a former housekeeper named Jennifer, who had access to the residence while the victim was traveling.

Several stolen items—including stamped sterling silver piece sets and the victim’s vacuum cleaner—were later spotted at a pawn shop in nearby Kissimmee, FL, though the high-value historic jewelry remains unaccounted for and may have been sold or circulated through secondary markets, estate sales, or antique buyers.
