A man ran off with an expensive watch on his arm after meeting with the seller at a local store, officials told KPRC Local 2.

The men agreed to meet at the Super Wal-Mart in the 2700 block of Kirkwood Drive on Dec. 31, authorities said.

Investigators said the man is white, 20 to 22 years old and 5 feet 10 inches to 6 feet tall with a thin build. The man has short blonde hair with a visible bald spot, officials said.

Investigators said the man was last seen wearing a T-shirt, shorts and a baseball cap.

The man has a tattoo of the word "AMERICA" on the left side of his neck, the victim said.
