JOOC, what do second hand shops do with stolen water meters? Do they actually resell the meters? Or is there enough scrap material to make dismantling them lucrative? And, if the latter, I would think a scrapyard would be a better place to sell them?

That's the reason why new water meters are from Plastic. Thieves are not interested in those :D
