The watch has a black face and an orange quarter on the bezel. Both suspects are believed to be aged around 16 to 18-years old and of medium build.
The first suspect had blonde/red coloured wavy hair and at the time of the incident was wearing a green tracksuit. The second was wearing a green hooded top with a fur peak and blue tracksuit bottoms.
Detective Constable Sam Rimmer said: “Officers have been undertaking a number of enquiries in the local area in relation to this incident. Although the man was not injured during the incident, it has understandably left him shaken up and we are doing all we can to find those responsible.
“As such, we are appealing to anyone who may have captured dashcam, mobile phone or CCTV footage from the surrounding areas at the time of the incident to come forward. The same goes to anyone who was in the area and believes that they may have seen something that didn’t look quite right or may know who is responsible.”
