Rappers’ luxury watch drama heats up as French Montana faces allegations from Swiss businessmen Justo Obiang and Samir Gato. The pair claims Montana borrowed a $1 million watch in 2024, promising to return it after Paris Fashion Week but never did. What’s worse, they say the collateral watch he gave them in exchange was a fake.
Obiang and Gato say their friendship with French Montana dates back to a 2015 show in Geneva, but things took a sour turn in Egypt last year. They accuse Montana of fraud, unjust enrichment, and converting their valuable timepiece without permission, demanding at least $1 million in damages for the alleged breach.
French Montana, however, denies any wrongdoing, insisting he accepted the watch as payment and denies stealing it. As the lawsuit unfolds, fans and insiders await the legal showdown and possible fallout for the rapper’s reputation.
