MANHATTAN — Police are looking for a woman they say snatched two pricey timepieces from a man's apartment on the Upper West Side.

On Sept. 16, at about 3 a.m., the victim, 25, realized that his two watches — estimated worth at $10,000 and $300 — were stolen from his apartment around Columbus Avenue and West 97th Street, police said.

A woman had been visiting the man's apartment, and the watches were gone after she left while he was asleep, according to the NYPD.

Surveillance video shows the woman leaving the building. She is described as 5-foot-5, around 145 pounds, and was last seen wearing a blue dress and black jacket. 

Anyone with information in regards to this incident is asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782).
