Overview

  • Chilean authorities recovered the six timepieces in December 2024 during coordinated raids in Santiago that uncovered stolen cars, iPhones and designer purses.
  • Reeves identified the watches as those taken from his Hollywood Hills home in December 2023, with their combined value estimated at $125,000.
  • One standout piece is an engraved Rolex Submariner originally gifted to his John Wick: Chapter 4 stunt team.
  • Authorities arrested 23 suspects in April linked to the transnational ring behind multiple celebrity and athlete home burglaries.
  • The FBI now holds the recovered watches and will arrange their return to Reeves, reflecting heightened U.S.-Chile cooperation on cross-border crime.
