The smash-and-grab happened around 3:45 a.m. Aug. 17 at Glitz Jewelers on Seventh Avenue near Carroll Street in Park Slope, cops said. 

The store was closed when the robber snatched assorted jewelry worth $200,000 in total, authorities said. 

Police early Wednesday had no specific details on the items taken.
