Diamond Dawgs

The source frame, with Diamond Dawgs marked
Extended Look · snt-00177 · 18:05.72 · placeholder frame

A jewellery shop on a Vice City corner, named on its own fascia, and robbed four seconds before the camera reads the sign.

The fascia runs along a cream single-storey building on a corner, in evening sun. It reads DIAMOND DAWGS in dark serif capitals, with QUALITY JEWELS AND WATCHES beneath it in a smaller line.

The shopfront below is glazed with a recessed entrance, and the neighbouring units on the same block carry their own signs — EYE & DRY with a pair of spectacles, and HOBBS MILL across the street.

The sign is read from the saddle of a motorcycle pulling away from the kerb. Four seconds earlier the camera was inside a jewellery shop during a robbery, which is why the two are recorded as the same place.

How to recognise it

  • DIAMOND DAWGS in dark serif capitals on a cream fascia
  • QUALITY JEWELS AND WATCHES on a second, smaller line
  • Corner unit, single storey, glazed shopfront with a recessed entrance
  • EYE & DRY next door on the same block

The frame it comes from

The frame is Extended Look at 18:05.72. It is 1920 by 1080, and the subject occupies 240 by 81 of it. Also in it: a nagasaki supersport in race livery, a pink classic convertible, and a banner panel van.

What we still do not know

  • Whether this is certainly the shop robbed on the frame four seconds earlier — the interior never shows the name
  • Where the corner is on the map
  • Whether the shop can be entered outside the mission
