Naaman Diller

Naaman Diller (later known as Naaman Lidor) was an Israeli burglar best known for the 1983 theft of 106 rare clocks and watches from the L. A. Mayer Museum for Islamic Art in Jerusalem, a case often described as the largest art robbery in Israel's history.

Background Diller was a former air force pilot.

The 1983 heist, sometimes referred to as the "Great Clock Robbery", remains a landmark case in Israeli history. It prompted changes in museum security practices in Israel, and the restored display has since been used by the museum to narrate the investigation and recovery to visitors.

Death Diller died of cancer in 2004; before his death he told his wife that he had carried out the museum theft and left the remaining stolen items to her, some of which were stored in safes in Israel, Europe and the United States.
