Although not jewelry or high end watches, many years ago my father purchased a new car and as he was pulling out of the dealership parking lot, he was hit by a drunk driver who went through a red light and the car was totaled so losses in the first 90 days are not statistically improbable.

He owned the car for a total of 30 minutes
