Sadly I think it is very unlikely that you will ever see them again. However, you can email Solms to let them know the serial nos of the stolen items. I emailed Leica UK when my R9/DMR was stolen a few months ago. They were very sympathetic and have logged my details on their stolen items database. Although you cannot access the stolen register directly on the Leica forum website any more, they will still accept email notification of the stolen items. You never know, they may end up needing service in a few years time. If so then legally the ownership will revert back to you.
