And thirdly don't talk to Romanians.
Two things to say about this. First, the gang members always approached their victims initially to check that the watch they coveted was genuine. They weren't taking the risk of being apprehended for a fake. So anyone asking you the time or getting up close for directions, walk away and don't engage. Second, the thieves always look out of place. Be aware of your surroundings and you'll begin to spot them easily enough. Once spotted, keep well away and never place yourself in a street, car park or similar where you're on your own. These two courses of action will drastically reduce your vulnerability to theft.
