According to prosecutors, the woman lent him her Rolex Daytona Cosmograph in early 2021. He promised to return it once an identical watch he planned to buy had arrived. Four months later, she asked for it back. He refused, saying his own watch had not arrived.

By the end of October, their relationship had ended. Prosecutors say he then sold her Rolex to someone unconnected with the case and kept the money. They are seeking two years and three months in prison for alleged misappropriation, along with €26,500 in compensation.
