Keanu Reeves' Rolex, taken from his LA residence, found in Chile
Chilean police have successfully retrieved three watches owned by Keanu Reeves, the renowned actor from "John Wick." Among these timepieces is a Rolex valued at $9,000, suspected to have been pilfered from his Los Angeles residence in late 2023.
During a police operation targeting multiple local robberies, the Rolex Submariner, inscribed with Keanu’s first name and the phrase, "2021, JW4, thank you, The John Wick Five," was discovered in eastern Santiago on Saturday. Notably, Reeves had previously gifted similar Rolex Submariners to his "John Wick: Chapter 4" stunt team in 2021. As per the Rolex website, such a watch is priced around $9,000.
In an intriguing twist, the "John Wick" narrative begins with Reeves' character, a retired assassin, embarking on a revenge mission following a home invasion, theft, and the killing of his dog. Chilean officials reported uncovering jewelry and "valuable" watches during searches of four properties, with at least one timepiece belonging to a "celebrated actor" victimized in a December 2023 Los Angeles burglary.
According to CNN Chile, referencing local law enforcement, all three watches retrieved in the raids are confirmed to be Reeves'. Collaboration between Chilean and U.S. authorities facilitated the connection to the 2023 heist at his home. Police have apprehended a 21-year-old suspect. CNN has sought comments from Reeves’ representatives.
This isn't the first instance of Reeves facing home invasions; in 2014, his abode was reportedly breached twice within a mere three days.
