Keanu Reeves’ rolex turns up in Chile after L.A. theft

Recovered Watches Belonging to Keanu Reeves Found in Chile

Police in Chile have made a significant breakthrough in the case of stolen watches belonging to Hollywood actor Keanu Reeves. Three watches, including a high-value Rolex Submariner worth $9,000, were recovered during a police operation in eastern Santiago. The Rolex watch, engraved with Reeves’ first name and a message referencing the film “John Wick Five,” is believed to have been stolen from the actor’s Los Angeles home in late 2023.

It is reported that in 2021, Reeves gifted Rolex Submariners to the stuntmen he worked with on the set of “John Wick: Chapter 4.” The recovered watch holds sentimental value to the actor, making its retrieval a significant achievement for the authorities.

Chilean officials also uncovered other valuable items, including jewelry, during raids on four houses. At least one of the recovered watches has been confirmed to belong to a famous actor who fell victim to a robbery in Los Angeles. Authorities are collaborating with their US counterparts to further investigate the case and ensure justice is served.

A 21-year-old suspect has been arrested in connection with the theft, shedding light on the criminal activities that led to the recovery of the stolen watches. Reeves’ representatives have not yet commented on the recent developments, but the actor has unfortunately been targeted in home robberies in the past, with incidents reported as far back as 2014.

The saga of the “John Wick” films, where Reeves plays a former hitman seeking vengeance for a home invasion, adds irony to the situation. The parallels between fiction and reality highlight the importance of security and protection for celebrities and their possessions, even off-screen.
