The strange case alleged the rapper borrowed an uber-lux Richard Mille, never gave it back, and had offered a counterfeit watch as collateral.

French Montana has reached a settlement to resolve an unusual lawsuit claiming the star rapper stole a Swiss watch worth more than $1 million.
The “Unforgettable” star was sued last year by Justo Obiang and Samir Gato, two Swiss men who claimed French (Karim Kharbouch) had borrowed their Richard Mille RM-59-01 and refused to return it. Though he’d given them a different Mille as collateral, they claimed it turned out to be a fake.
