Canadian actor Keanu Reeves has been reunited with his stolen Rolex, gifted to him after filming John Wick: Chapter 4, following a major international sting operation.
The timepiece, engraved with the message “2021, JW4, thank you, The John Wick Five,” was one of several luxury items stolen during a 2023 break-in at Reeves’ Los Angeles mansion. The 60-year-old star was not home at the time when masked thieves ransacked the property and made off with valuables, including the $10,000 commemorative watch.
According to TMZ, six of Reeves’ watches were later recovered during a coordinated raid in Santiago, Chile. The sting—part of a joint operation between Chilean authorities and the FBI—targeted a South America-based burglary ring that had been looting celebrity homes across the U.S., including those of Reeves and NFL star Travis Kelce, known for dating Taylor Swift.
On Wednesday, Chilean officials handed over $125,000 worth of recovered jewelry to the FBI, who are now working to return the items to Reeves. Authorities also recovered stolen vehicles, iPhones, and designer handbags during the sweep.
The 2023 burglary deeply unsettled Reeves and his security team. Alongside the luxury items, the thieves reportedly stole a firearm, raising further concerns about the intent behind the break-in.
This wasn’t the first time Reeves’ Hollywood Hills estate had been targeted. A similar incident occurred in 2014, prompting the actor to tighten security around his home.
Earlier in 2023, Reeves had also secured a temporary restraining order against Bryan Dixon, an alleged stalker who had repeatedly trespassed on the property. Surveillance footage captured Dixon scaling walls, smoking in the garden, and even sleeping in the backyard over a two-month period. On one occasion, he left behind a backpack containing a DNA test kit, which authorities said he intended to use in a delusional attempt to prove he was related to the actor.
Back in 2014, Reeves’ home was again breached—this time by a female intruder who was discovered by cleaning staff after she entered the house, undressed, and took a swim in the pool. Reeves was not home during that incident either.
Despite enhanced surveillance and private security, the continued targeting of the star’s home underscores the persistent risks faced by high-profile celebrities.
