Simon Dominic Reveals How a Lucky Coincidence Helped Recover His Stolen Luxury Watch

Simon Dominic recently shared the shocking story of how a thief broke into his home and stole a luxury watch worth hundreds of thousands of dollars before eventually getting caught through an unexpected coincidence.

The rapper, also known as Sammdy, opened up about the incident in a July 2 video uploaded to the YouTube channel "Life84."

In the video, longtime friend and webtoon artist Kian84 visited Simon Dominic's home, where the two talked about friendship, privacy, and expensive belongings. During the conversation, Kian84 jokingly asked to see the rapper's luxury watch collection, AllKPop reported.

Simon Dominic quickly responded that his expensive watches were locked away in a safe and explained why he had become so careful.

"A thief broke into my house," he said. "They stole my fully diamond-encrusted watch and later consigned it to a watch shop that I frequently visit."

According to Simon Dominic, the stolen watch was discovered by pure chance. A friend who owned the same model visited the shop to look for another watch and noticed one that looked exactly like Simon Dominic's missing piece.

"A friend of mine, who owns the exact same watch, went to that watch shop to buy another watch and spotted mine," he recalled. "When I went there and tried it on, it fit my wrist perfectly."

The rapper explained that the bracelet had not been resized because it was already customized to fit his wrist, confirming that the watch belonged to him.

According to TheChosun, Simon Dominic immediately contacted authorities. He said detectives joined him at the watch shop on Christmas Eve morning to review CCTV footage.

The suspect was reportedly identified quickly after leaving behind a copy of their identification while consigning the watch.

"At 10 AM on Christmas Eve, I went to the watch shop with detectives and checked the CCTV footage," he shared. "The thief had left behind a copy of their ID, so they were caught almost immediately."

Even after recovering the expensive watch, Simon Dominic decided not to keep it. He admitted that the item no longer felt comfortable to own after the burglary.

"Since it had been stolen, it just didn't feel right anymore, so I sold it right away," he said.

The incident also changed how the rapper handles his privacy. Simon Dominic revealed that he no longer films inside his home because of security concerns.
