The male version of the Classy Cat-Burglar may lack the cat jokes and themes, but he makes up for it with roguish good looks coupled with a breeding and style that manifests as a suave and debonair manner. He's usually a charmer, too—think James Bond without the government authorization.
He steals for the challenge/pleasure of the job and generally avoids violence while restricting his targets to those who can afford the loss. More importantly for plots, these characters will often go out of their way to stop more serious crimes—especially with lives at stake—either on their own or with the help of the police. As such they often adhere to Thou Shalt Not Kill and/or are Technical Pacifists. Murdering your target or stealing from them at gunpoint is not very gentlemanly. It's not uncommon for the GT to give at least a part of the goods he steals to the poor, often while very cynically commenting on social injustice and how the rich surely got their wealth with dirty methods, so it's only fair to steal from them and then give to those who need it.
Like the Classy Cat-Burglar, the Gentleman Thief usually regards the police with a certain amount of disdain and condescension, and frequently leaves behind "calling cards" announcing who performed the crime; especially confident versions may announce their targets in advance to ensure a challenge. With a Worthy Opponent such as a Sympathetic Inspector Antagonist chasing him, they may have a less adversarial relationship, verging at times on friendship (and, sometimes, fraught with UST of the Dating Catwoman variety), where they do things such as leaving Big Bad crooks behind for their rival to take the credit for arresting. They're usually a Badass in a Nice Suit, occasionally doing the Tuxedo and Martini look. As he may not enjoy actual risks, the Gentleman Thief may decide that gambling is beneath him and cheat instead. Expect him to do so with sophistication. If he does gamble, expect him to be almost supernaturally lucky, or a tournament-grade player without peers. In many cases, they steal because they can and for the thrill, not out of an actual monetary need (since they are often rich)—though it may be a way to stave off Rich Boredom. This is also why they will never give up thievery for simple gambling.
They do exist in Real Life, yet their most usual technique is not stealing per se, but more like conning the victim.
Sometimes overlaps with Phantom Thief or Karmic Thief. Sister trope to Venturous Smuggler. See also Scoundrel Code.

Nikolai Dante becomes one after joining the Romanov Dynasty. After being wounded in a duel, he took to the Hotel Yalta to recuperate and held a massive party. Unfortunately for him, he discovers that in order to pay the extravagant bill he's run up, he would be forced to bankrupt the province that he just saved. So, he decides to rob several wealthy guests while masked, seducing several women in the process, which causes him to be referred to as the Gentleman Thief.

Eli Monpress of The Spirit Thief is this, and also a wizard. His "light" (it's hard to explain, you have to see it, say all the spirits) makes it so that most spirits will do as he asks without a servant or a slave bond (as the good guys and the bad guys use, respectively), letting him pull off blatantly impossible acts of wizardry. His goal in life is to increase his bounty to one million golden standards (an insane amount, quoted as being more money than exists in the world).

Ijyuin Akira, the Man of Twenty Faces, in CLAMP School Detectives: a young gentleman thief, he steals according to the direction of his two mothers. This character is based on Japanese mystery author Edogawa Ranpo's "Fiend With Twenty Face".
This character also reappears as "Twenty Faces" in The Daughter of Twenty Faces, who, among other things, steals national treasures that have been mislocated due to war to return them to their rightful place.

Fantomex, also from X-Men and the X-Force, who Grant Morrison based on the classic pulp characters Fantômas and Diabolik.
In the first issue of Uncanny X-Force, he raids the Tower of London on a wager with Wolverine and, upon losing (Logan beat him to the vault), agrees to pay Logan with a case of cognac, worth "two million dollars a bottle". It's not about the money, but rather, it's simply "his poison".
This was heavily implied to be a bet between the two where the loser had to buy a case of alcohol for the winner.

Raffles: Raffles is a character who has been around in literary form since the 1890s. Invented by E. W. Hornung, who meant him to be a subversion of the trope: definitely not a nice guy, and stealing for profit rather than for fun or altruism. (See further discussion under Depraved Bisexual.) It was no use, though; Hornung's readers saw Raffles as glamorous anyway, and later incarnations of the character invariably make him into a hero.
See the other Wiki for a list of works featuring Raffles. He has also appeared as a minor character in the webcomic Scary Go Round (see below).
The difference between Raffles as created by Hornung, and Raffles as developed by others was parodied by Jon L. Breen in "Ruffles versus Ruffles", where the no-good crook and the heroic adventurer are brothers: A.J. Ruffles and R.J. Ruffles.

Subverted in the Psych episode, "Extradition: British Colombia." Pierre Despereaux seems to be one of these, but as it turns out it's actually an elaborate art-insurance scam: the owners let Desperaux steal the art (who then presumably sells it on the black market or perhaps keeps some of it himself), so the cash-strapped owners can collect the insurance money rather than having to sell the art themselves (which is rather embarrassing).
Played straight when he comes back in later episodes. He lives up to his previously fake legacy, and really is an amazing thief and escape artist.

The Mexican comic version of Fantômas, going so far as to wear a top hat, opera cape, and cane while performing his second-story jobs. (He eventually stopped doing that, however.) Not to be confused with the original French character of the same name (see below), who is an utterly evil serial murderer and terrorist-for-no-particular-reason.

Silk, also known as Prince Kheldar, from The Belgariad and the Malloreon, is an excellent example of this. Of course, he is also a spy. And a successful entrepreneur to the point that he can get away with the Mallorean government being aware of him being this trope and a spy (well, an important and very good spy. All Drasnian merchants are assumed to be spies), simply by being so integral to their economy that it'd crash if he withdrew.

The title of Scott Lynch's Gentleman Bastard series (starting with ''The Lies of Locke Lamora") is a nod to this trope. The main characters were raised in a street gang called the Gentleman Bastards and were trained in a wide variety of skills in order to pull of complex cons and thefts, especially against the wealthy upper-class. In reality the gang and Locke in partiuclar are a deconstruction of the trope, with skills to blend in with the upper class to pull their cons, but still a degree of brutal praticality needed to survive in the criminal underworld. Locke is known to the upper class as the mysterious gentleman thief the "Thorn of Camorr" and the wealthy generally expect him to live up to this trope, but in reality he won't hesitate for a moment to fight dirty or even kick a few dogs if needed. He still has his standards, but often takes advanatge of the expectation for him to act more nobely, such as when he escapes a Poison and Cure Gambit by punching the old woman trying to pull it on him in the face and stealing the antidote before fleeing.

Mask☆DeMasque, from Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Trials and Tribulations, who carries out his thieving with Don Quixote-esque enthusiasm. The personality is not there, however, as Ron DeLite is a Nervous Wreck Cowardly Lion who steals primarily to support his wife's shopping habit.
The Yatagarasu in Investigations, except the calling card is always sent after the theft...and what the Yatagarasu steals is the "truth". In other words, they (yes, they) uncover, steal, and deliver to the media incriminating information regarding people who otherwise can't be touched by the law, so that they'll actually be forced to pay for their crimes. The Yatagarasu's signature music is even CALLED Gentleman Thief.

Flambeau is a clever, strong, joking, and very tall jewel thief of the Father Brown series by G. K. Chesterton. His name means "torch" in French. He liked to use paradoxical disguises (as in The Queer Feet). After several encounters with Father Brown, the trope was deconstructed in "The Flying Stars", in which Father Brown pointed out that he had thoughtlessly left a situation where an innocent person was likely to be blamed for the crime he committed and persuaded him that it was impossible to remain a honourable outlaw without Slowly Slipping Into Evil. He then reformed and became a private detective.

Carmen Sandiego of the self-titled gaming franchise is a female variant. She's cultured and suave but is the world's best thief nevertheless. Her fashion tastes are conservative though (it is a children's series), always in a full-length trench coat and wide-brimmed fedora, which is why she isn't under Classy Cat-Burglar. She was one of the best a star ACME agents until she took a Face–Heel Turn due to boredom.

The Thieves Guild in Discworld is said to run special courses for Gentleman Thieves. It's one thing being robbed, but it's annoying to learn that your possessions were stolen by a man in a borrowed suit.
The Discworld Assassins' Guild has a large proportion of gentleman members; this is because the Guild runs one of the best schools on the Disc, specialist subjects aside, and many upper-class boys get their education there before going on to other careers. It's not all upper-class males, though; the school now has two all-girls houses, and offers scholarships to prospective students who are too poor to pay the fees but show potential to be really good at killing people. However, they never steal anything — just as they don't expect the Thieves Guild to kill people. There's clear job demarcation.
Moist von Lipwig may have scammed people out of all their money, but he has never committed a violent crime. Plus, after the challenge of his new job wore off, he turns to breaking into his own building. But the trope is somewhat deconstructed, when Mr. Pump states that, despite Moist's rules and gentlemanly nature, he's still killed 2.338 people, albeit indirectly, by the damage he's done to people's lives.
In Men at Arms, though, Edward D'Eath seems to think there could be no such thing as a gentleman thief: "If he had trained as a Fool, he would have invented satire and made jokes about the Patrician. If he had trained as a Thief (of course, no gentleman would dream of being trained as a Thief) he would have broken into the palace and stolen something very valuable from the Patrician."

The Pontiac Bandit in Brooklyn Nine-Nine isn't technically a gentleman, but he's pretty much this trope in almost every other respect (or at least as close as a car thief who only ever jacks Pontiacs can get). He's an incredibly affable, friendly, and likeable guy who clearly likes Detective Peralta, the police officer trying to catch him... but who clearly likes playing mind-games with Peralta and outwitting him to get away scot-free even more.

In the film, it's his behavior that helps investigators link his various crimes throughout the midwest to the same man.

The illustrious Magic Kaito (if he isn't too perverted to count) that sometimes appears also in Case Closed. He actually has a justifiable cause: his main target is a gemstone that hides a secret that can be seen under moonlight, a secret that cost his father's life as it's also the target of a criminal organization. That's why he almost always targets famous gemstones.

The late former Guildmaster Gallus in Skyrim definitely counted when he was alive — he once formed a steadfast friendship with a guy while he was robbing him. This is especially noticeable when contrasted with the Arc Villain of the Thieves Guild storyline, Mercer Frey, who's revealed to be nothing but a treacherous cutthroat with zero class.

Nick Velvet (from a series of short stories by Edward D. Hoch) is a professional thief for hire, with a peculiar specialty: for a flat fee, he steals only objects of negligible apparent value. Since his first appearance in Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine in September 1966, he has stolen such things as an old spiderweb (which he was then obliged to replace), a day-old newspaper, and a used teabag. His original fee for a theft was $20,000. In 1980, he raised it to $25,000 at the urging of his long-time girlfriend Gloria (who met Nick in 1965 when he was burgling her New York apartment); in the 21st century, his fee has risen to $50,000. Unlike many fictional thieves, Nick usually works alone on his thefts—in fact, until 1979, Gloria believed that Nick worked for the U.S. government.

Marvel Universe:
Spider-Man:
The elderly criminal, the Black Fox. (His schemes usually revolved around making a big score so he could retire from crime.)
There's also Walter Hardy, father of the Black Cat. Unfortunately, he's something of a subversion in that he keeps retiring because he causes more harm than he intends to. In regular comics continuity and the '90s cartoon, he's tricked into working for Nazis and nearly gets them a Super-Soldier formula. In The Spectacular Spider-Man, he became The Atoner after killing Uncle Ben in a moment of weakness.
Shen Kuei, aka "The Cat" (he even has a tattoo of a cat on his chest), who is both this trope and a rare male example of the Classy Cat-Burglar at times. He's not only a skilled thief, but he also has martial arts skills that rival his arch-enemies Shang-Chi and Iron Fist.
Gambit from X-Men is a master thief and king of the Thieves Guild of New Orleans.
Fantomex, also from X-Men and the X-Force, who Grant Morrison based on the classic pulp characters Fantômas and Diabolik.
In the first issue of Uncanny X-Force, he raids the Tower of London on a wager with Wolverine and, upon losing (Logan beat him to the vault), agrees to pay Logan with a case of cognac, worth "two million dollars a bottle". It's not about the money, but rather, it's simply "his poison".
This was heavily implied to be a bet between the two where the loser had to buy a case of alcohol for the winner.

Pierce Brosnan plays a millionaire trying to be a Gentleman Thief in The Thomas Crown Affair (1999). "It's just a game, love; it's just a game." Complete with a literal calling card: a pencil with the name of his firm left plainly at the scene of the final caper!
And, of course, the original 1968 film starring Steve McQueen.

It Takes a Thief was about a second-generation Gentleman Thief who was caught and given the choice of prison or helping the government. He chose helping the government. Inspired by, though not based upon, the 1955 Cary Grant motion picture To Catch a Thief (see above). Notable for starring Robert Wagner as the thief and Fred Astaire!!! as his father, who says at the start of every third season episode, "I've heard of stealing from the government, but stealing for the government?".

Mutants & Masterminds has Magpie, who has the added advantage of being able to teleport (though he's still a skilled-enough acrobat, athlete, contortionist and escape artist to not need that ability). His main foe was the sceond Raven, whom he shamelessly flirted with note after her retirement, he left a calling card in the headquarters of her replacement. Said replacement wasn't amused, and his "barely restrained temper" has since been exploited by Magpie on a number of occasions. He "admires beauty in all its forms", leaves a calling card at the scene of each theft, and his code of honor forbids him from stealing from those who have very little, or engaging in crimes with the potential to turn violent (i.e, kidnapping, murder, drug-running). As of 3e, he's taking on apprentices.

From Disney Ducks Comic Universe
The Black Knight from Don Rosa's comics who is a rather obvious Captain Ersatz of Arsene Lupin.
Paperinik (Donald Duck superhero alter-ego) started out as this, and his first heist was to steal Scrooge's money-filled mattress as he was sleeping on it. Even now, as a superhero, he's capable of stealing anything, as shown that time he decided to track down the local kingpin of crime by faking an amnesia-motivated Face–Heel Turn to get approached and literally stole half of Duckburg single-handedly (he later gave everything back).
His in-universe inspiration lord Quackett/Fantomius (of whom Paperinik uses a modified version of the costume and took the gadgets used in the first story) was one in the Duckburg of the Roaring Twenties, to the point the trope name is present on both the title of his own series and the Calling Cards he leaves at every heist. His love for the challenge is so great that, in the second story of his series, his answer to the chief of the police proclaiming he wouldn't be able to break out of prison once he succeeded in arresting him was to let himself get arrested and unmasked as lord Quackett, tell the guard that night he was supposed to burgle a safe, break out without anyone noticing, burgle the safe, get back to jail from the main gate and break out again in a way that convinced everyone he wasn't lord Quackett, being extremely polite and gentlemanly all the time (after all, as the second son of an English duke, he actually is a gentleman).

In Woody Guthrie's "Pretty Boy Floyd", the titular outlaw pays off the mortgages of farmers facing eviction, leaves a $1,000 bill under a hungry stranger's napkin, and drops off a carload of groceries for families on relief. Near the end, Woody muses that some rob with a gun and others rob with a fountain pen, yet an outlaw would never drive a family from their home.

Moist von Lipwig may have scammed people out of all their money, but he has never committed a violent crime. Plus, after the challenge of his new job wore off, he turns to breaking into his own building. But the trope is somewhat deconstructed, when Mr. Pump states that, despite Moist's rules and gentlemanly nature, he's still killed 2.338 people, albeit indirectly, by the damage he's done to people's lives.

Fingers from the Lucky Luke story by the same name is an odd example that seems to fit but not really represent the same idea... perhaps a parody or deconstruction. He's an impeccably dressed magician with superficial good manners and suave charm that the ladies automatically love, and as skilled a thief as only a magician can be. He steals things for the sake of doing it and isn't really all that greedy. Yet what he really is is a kleptomaniac with no goal in life who keeps getting into trouble for stealing. One of his problems compared to more straight examples is that he can't help stealing petty things openly.

Somewhat subverted with Loxley from Fallout who deliberately styles himself after Robin Hood, giving himself an exaggerated British accent and a "jolly-good" attitude that makes him stick out like a sore thumb against the gritty post-apocalyptic American landscape.

Red X from Teen Titans (2003). He also has a bit of a Worthy Opponent relationship with Robin that occasionally delves into Friendly Enemy at certain points, with Red X deliberately placing himself in situations where he might be caught in order to help Robin (and, by extension, the rest of the Titans). It's made most obvious in the episode "Revved Up" when the two are racing on their motorcycles (and against other villains) in order to be the first to steal an already once-stolen case that is incredibly important to Robin. After a stray bomb throws Red X from his bike, Robin saves Red X's life by grabbing him out of mid-air and pulling him onto Robin's own motorcycle.

He dresses up in a Tuxedo Kamen-esque suit, top hat and mask ensemble, and he's a thief who goes around preemptively stealing rare Medabot Medals in order to keep them out of the hand of the evil Rubberrobos gang... however, he's very much not a cool character. He's clumsy, bungling, has a daytime job as a lowly shopkeeper, and gets no respect, to the point he frequently tries to desperately hype up his own alter-ego to the main characters, who couldn't care less.

Arsène Lupin has been adapted several times on television, most prominently in France in 1971-1974 (starring Georges Descrières) and 1989-1996 (starring François Dunoyer).

Mamoru "Tuxedo Kamen" Chiba in the manga and Live-Action version of Sailor Moon, though only to find the Silver Crystal so he can recover his long-lost memories, and he stops when they do find it and becomes solely a superhero. Sailor Moon even comments "He's just like Lupin the Thief! He's hot!" when she first sees him in the manga. It causes severe friction between him and the Senshi in the live-action version.

Gentle Criminal from My Hero Academia patterns himself as one: he dresses in a fancy suit, drinks expensive tea before each "job", only steals from the rich and/or corrupt, and brazenly posts videos of his exploits on the Internet. He will resort to (non-lethal) violence if he has to, but isn't fond of doing so and cuts it out of his videos.

Fantômas is a literary and cinematic Gentleman Thief from France, and came to exist in the wake of Arsène Lupin's success. He's also kind of a psycho-murderer as well, very much an anti-Lupin.

In Men at Arms, though, Edward D'Eath seems to think there could be no such thing as a gentleman thief: "If he had trained as a Fool, he would have invented satire and made jokes about the Patrician. If he had trained as a Thief (of course, no gentleman would dream of being trained as a Thief) he would have broken into the palace and stolen something very valuable from the Patrician."

The Elder Scrolls:
Throughout the series, when playing the Thieves' Guild quest line, it is often encouraged for the Player Character to be one. The Guild is generally violence averse, and several of the games offer greater rewards when Thieves Guild quests are completed without bloodshed, encouraging Actual Pacifism. You can also choose to dress in fancy clothing and rob only the rich outside of your quests and, since you generally make a lot of money easily in these games, you'll rarely ever have to steal for an actual living.
In Morrowind, Thieves Guild Master Thief Gentleman Jim Stacey is one. He dresses in a full suit of "extravagant" clothing, speaks tactfully, and wants to revive the Bal Malogmer, an ancient group of Just Like Robin Hood thieves practice Karmic Thievery.
In Oblivion, the Gray Fox serves as leader of the Thieves Guild. Once the curse on his Gray Cowl is lifted, he is revealed to be a literal example: Count Corvus Umbranox, Lord of Anvil.
The late former Guildmaster Gallus in Skyrim definitely counted when he was alive — he once formed a steadfast friendship with a guy while he was robbing him. This is especially noticeable when contrasted with the Arc Villain of the Thieves Guild storyline, Mercer Frey, who's revealed to be nothing but a treacherous cutthroat with zero class.

The DCU:
Batman:
The Riddler, occasionally. His personality varies, actually.
The Penguin started out this way but eventually settled into a role as a semi-legit restauranteur/arms dealer.
Michael Baffle was a one-shot Golden Age foe (and obvious Expy of Raffles).
Hawkman: Subverted with the Gentleman Ghost. He may put on airs at times, but he's a highwayman through and through. Being the bastard son of an English noble that was treated like a peasant all his life, he tries to invoke the image wherever he can, but it's clearly an act.
The anti-villain/anti-hero named The Shade has been presented this way since the 1994 Starman series, though he hasn't done much thieving recently.
As of Wonder Woman (1987) Angle Man has gotten a revamp that includes a nice suit and hat and become a friendly if more unpredictable thief who always does his best to compliment the ladies. He also pays back his debts when Donna helps save his life.

Jerry Fagin, an international jewel thief who made a single appearance in Cagney & Lacey solely to challenge Cagney to a duel of wits. His first action is to pull a heist and plant evidence all over the scene that points to the police department itself. When this becomes clear, Cagney immediately says, "Jerry Fagin! Nobody else would do this with such unmitigated . . . style!"

Roguefort Cookie from Cookie Run, while not confirmed to be male, is pretty masculine presenting and otherwise fits the criteria. They dress in a fancy suit, top hat, and monocle and carry a Classy Cane. They steal almost exclusively jewls, leave calling cards, and are know for being very charming. They are also very friendly towards their two main rivals, Walnut Cookie and Almond Cookie.

The Saint, AKA Simon Templar, is such a Gentleman Thief in the original stories (and also Ambiguously Brown as well, unusual in those days) that the TV series cleaned him up a lot, though not entirely. He doesn't always quite adhere to the code, though, in that he does not shrink from murdering criminals as well as taking their money. On one occasion, he ties the villains of the story up in an abandoned house, to which he then sets fire, leaving them to burn alive. Granted, they were going to do the same to him and his cohorts, but, still — not entirely gentlemanly behavior.

The Hourglass of Wake of the Clash is a thief of substantial popularity, rivaling that of Airstrike, whose fans can be seen right beside his, sporting themed merch during heists. He often spouts off cutting one-liners and clever insults at the heroes he faces and deftly maneuvers his heists to be as flashy as possible. It has been mentioned by the author that Hourglass will often play up their fights to make their escapades more entertaining to onlookers.

Wonder Woman: Evan Robley in "The Queen and the Thief". He charms the Queen, is hired to steal the crown jewels, is clearly uncomfortable with guns or violence (although he does beg off from confronting Wonder Woman, so it may just be pragmatism), and joins forces with Wonder Woman and Steve Trevor to foil the evil plot of Ambassador Orrick. And is appointed an ambassador for doing so.

Dark from D.N.Angel is called a Phantom Thief, but he's definitely an example of a Gentleman Thief as well. He steals only works of art, sends a warning letter before every steal, and definitely thinks less of the cops. It's also later revealed that he has a reason for why he steals.

Spider-Man:
The elderly criminal, the Black Fox. (His schemes usually revolved around making a big score so he could retire from crime.)
There's also Walter Hardy, father of the Black Cat. Unfortunately, he's something of a subversion in that he keeps retiring because he causes more harm than he intends to. In regular comics continuity and the '90s cartoon, he's tricked into working for Nazis and nearly gets them a Super-Soldier formula. In The Spectacular Spider-Man, he became The Atoner after killing Uncle Ben in a moment of weakness.

The film version of The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen boasts the cheeky Cockney rogue Rodney Skinner, 'Genn'lemun Thief', as the Invisible Man, in lieu of the psychopathic rapist original Invisible Man, Dr. Hawley Griffin. Skinner apparently stole Griffin's invisibility formula. He kind of fails at the whole "gentleman" part. But he's adorable anyway. He's kind of a Composite Character; he has the powers of Dr Griffin, who was a Sociopathic Hero at best and would have made it nigh-impossible to avoid an M-rating without toning down his character a bit,note and yes, we know trying to adapt one of Alan Moore's works to the screen while keeping it PG-13 or under is missing the point, but what can you do? and the backstory of A.J. Raffles.

Archie Leach, played by Richard Chamberlain was Parker's mentor and appears to still be effective despite being retired. He is almost never without his canes, one has a 6-inch stiletto blade and the other is a taser capable of delivering 10,000 volts. He once stole an ancient Chinese artifact by getting into a fancy party dressed as a waitstaff pushing a cake, which is hollow, past security before putting on his suit and walking about. A simple swap, after using the taser cane to make the lights go off, real sword into the cake and fake handle in the place, and he walks out without a second glance.
The main crew plays with this idea. While they always are the Brains, Grifter, Hitter, Hacker, and Thiefnote respectively Nathan Ford, Sophie, Elliot Spencer, Hardison, and Parker, the victims they are helping never know their roles, and the bad guys are sometimes made to believe that the roles have been switched. Sometimes that's the plan, and sometimes it's in response to a thrown curveball. Nathan, as the Brains, does play Gentleman Thief at times, as have the rest of them every so often. Some of the best episodes come when the team are forced into roles that are far outside their comfort zone.

The titular character in the Montmorency series is an interesting twist on this. He is a gentleman and a thief, but not both at the same time at first. He often struggles about which one is his real self and ends up progressing from a common pickpocket to a spy for the British government, at which point he truly becomes a Gentleman Thief.

Jeremy Archer from Shadow of the Templar. He uses non-lethal weapons to avoid killing people during his thefts, has sexual tension with Simon, the FBI agent chasing after him in the first novel (which stops being tension soon after), and acts as an occasional consultant for Simon's team on cases involving more dangerous criminals or that involve his area of expertise.
The trope is kind of subverted in that, while he's extremely charming, any time he charms a woman, he does it with tongue firmly in cheek. It's implied that basically everyone knows he's gay (the team doesn't know because Jeremy doesn't want to mess up Simon's life). According to Word of God, he's bisexual with a preference toward men.
It's also played with in that he falls pretty well under Classy Cat-Burglar (what with the Spy Catsuit and the Dating Catwoman with Simon), despite being male.

Lunlun meets one of these in the Egypt episode of Hana Noko Lunlun, a charming and stylish middle-aged man who plans to commit quite the robbery of Ancient Egyptian jewels/relics/etc. and tries to use her as his Unwitting Pawn. Uncommonly for this type of character, he is captured by his Inspector Javert—but by that time Lunlun's innocence and kindness has touched his heart, and is last seen keeping flowers in his cellar.

The Scarlet Pimpernel: Although Sir Percy Blakeney is only a "thief" in that he "steals" people sentenced to the guillotine during the Reign of Terror - nonetheless most aspects of his character and methods conform to this trope, right down to leaving a calling card at the scene.

Baron von Geigern in Grand Hotel is a partial subversion. He actually fits the trope quite well—urbane, sophisticated, suave gentleman hotel thief—except for the fact that he's apparently being forced to be a hotel thief due to being deep in debt to bad people.

Dragon Age II has Varric, a Merchant-Prince. He's even introduced stopping a pickpocket from robbing Hawke, pinning the thief to the wall with a crossbow bolt, then while he's trapped casually offers some advice on how to rob people;
Hawke also falls into this role, at least in Act I where they're doing mercenary work, and in the "Mark of the Assassin" DLC where s/he assists a beautiful assassin in stealing a priceless jewel. Well, not really, but they are trying to recover something valuable.

Black Rose, aka Keith Harcourt, from Ashita no Nadja, is the perfect example of the GT with social leanings as he snarks at the idea of philanthropy and noblesse obligue which Nadja and his twin brother Francis supports. Later, however, he decides to give up stealing—because Francis has been mistaken as him and is willing to go to jail for his sake.

Mistborn:
Kelsier and his crew from Mistborn: The Original Trilogy. Breeze, however, is the culmination of this trope in the group. He lives the fine wines and finer suits, and is the most larcenous of the team, whereas the others are usually a little more hands-on and prone to mingling with the skaa.
The Marksman from Shadows of Self sets himself up as this, which is why Wax was willing to leave him to the city watch. But then the Marksman started killing people in the course of his robberies.

The titular Lupin III is usually portrayed as a chivalrous thief, who only targets those who can afford it, or simply have it coming. But it usually isn't long before he ends up revealing his playful side. Though when it comes to women, he ranges from a chivalrous perv, to a Handsome Lech. Depending on the Writer, that is. In general, he's most distinctly a gentleman in The Castle of Cagliostro and the more iconic TV shows, while in the original manga and most adaptations to pull from it, he's more distinctly a huge asshole.
And, on a related note, we have the Lupin III vs. Detective Conan anime special, where Conan chases after Lupin and Co. and they have to team up to rescue Ran, who's been caught in a massive conspiracy.
