Man Sues Gym Over Lost Watch & Cash

0:00On March 27th, a 64-year-old man named Andrew Masters lost his 8,000-pound Rolex watch and more than 100 pounds in cash from. A locker at the David Lloyd gym in Hampton. This happened on the afternoon of April 23rd, 2025, during a quick workout. He had secured the locker with a padlock supplied by the gym, but returned after 30-40 minutes to find a wide open and items gone. Staff reviewed CCTV footage and saw nothing suspicious, then suggested he call police himself. Masters felt the gym's response was indifferent, especially since their IT systems were down that day, leaving no entry logs. He's now suing the Hampton branch in small claims corps for negligence and full reimbursement, including the watch he planned to pass to his son. Meanwhile, similar thefts have hit other David Lloyd locations, like an 18,000-pound Rolex taken from a locker in Farnham. Gym officials say they cooperate with police on incidents, but won't comment further due to the ongoing case. Masters remains a platinum member paying nearly 4,000 pounds a year, but vows never to bring valuables again, raising questions about security.
