Same age, close to an interstate, pretty young blonde girls, jogging, walkman...?
WasBlind said:I cannot find anything that states she had a walkman with her.
smile22 said:i did a search on google but didnt come up with much on the watch when i have more time i will do more. does anyone know where i can find a watch like that ex a website that would have vintage watches or even if i went to a pawn shop would they know anything about them also was her rolex real or fake?
Knowing the family and their wealth at the time, I can assure you it's a real Rolex. Fakes, to my knowledge, do not have serial numbers.Richard said:Good questions. I think that her watch must have been a real Rolex, given the serial number and the fact that none of the websites or posters said that it was fake. I could not find any on-line Rolex "catalogs" but did find one which was hawking a book on them. Maybe that author/website manager would have some answers.
smile22 said:also it was manufactured between 87-89 based on a look up for the serial number
Check out any internet site selling Rolex watches used and look for the Lady Presidential. The band would be a combination of gold and stainless unless it's white gold and yellow gold. The watches came in a choice of face colors. Hers was blue. I don't think she had a diamond bezel, just a plain one. It probably had the date too.Richard said:You have pretty well confirmed that her Rolex watch was genuine. Now if you can determine what the model name was, and perhaps get a photo link, you could generate some tips or leads.
With the correct words in your post, it may be possible for someone who is simply trying to get info on that particular watch to link to this forum.
carolina said:barngoddess -you said that at the time tiffany was kidnapped her family was very well off. family friends of ours have a successful nationwide real estate company. recently a kidnapping attempt was made on one of their sons in an attempt to extort money from their family by a disgruntled ex money manager. i wonder if tiffany was a victim of a similar situation.
I found this from googling. I remember that case. I think her father was in the cement or concrete business, if I remember correctly.monkalup said:There was another case in south florida where the young lady was abducted for ransom and actually buried alive. she was found in time. I cannot remember her name, but I believe the case happened in coconut grove, fla in the late sixties, early seventies. This family was also wealthy and into real estate development, if I recal correctly. Wish I could remember her name...
We have often wondered that about Jean Marie Stewart as well. She also disappeared from a very affluent neighborhood and at the time, we owned a chain of 180 retail stores. We would have gladly paid such a ransom, but one was never demanded. One wonders if something didn't go wrong...

NOW I'VE HEARD EVERYTHING:
Doctor With a Dark Past: He was convicted of kidnapping a college student and burying her alive. Now Gary Krist, M.D., has a license to practice medicine. Dr. Krist now works as a general practioner in Chesney, Indiana. Three decades ago, Krist was sentenced to life in prison for the 1968 kidnapping of Barbara Jane Mackle, a college student from a wealthy family. Authorities said Krist, then 23, and a female accomplice abducted Mackle, a student at Emory University in Atlanta, at gunpoint from a motel and drugged her with chloroform. They put Mackle in a wooden box with food and other provisions, and buried her in a remote area in Georgia. Police rescued Mackle 3½ days later, after her father paid a $500,000 ransom. Krist was captured off the Florida coast in a speedboat he had purchased with the ransom money. The crime became the subject of a movie of the week, and Krist himself wrote a book about it, as did his victim. In her book, Mackle described her reaction as she was buried inside the box. "I screamed and screamed," she wrote. "The sound of the dirt got farther and farther away. Finally, I couldn't hear anything above. I screamed for a long time after that." After serving 10 years in prison, Krist was released and went on to study at medical schools in Grenada and Dominica, eventually earning a medical degree. The state of Alabama rejected his attempt to get a license, but the Indiana Medical Licensing Board approved him in December 2002. Indiana law does not prevent convicted felons from obtaining a medical license, and the state medical board put a number of restrictions on his ability to practice medicine. He remains on indefinite probation, and he must appear before the board every six months. He was required to submit to psychiatric evaluation, and he is not allowed to prescribe certain drugs.
