Shanghai man sentenced for stealing 3 million yuan luxury watch

In Shanghai, a man named Yang was sentenced to 10 years in prison for stealing a limited-edition Richard Mille diamond watch valued at over 3 million yuan from his friend, Mr. Su.

After Mr. Su moved to a new residence, he discovered the luxury timepiece was missing. Police investigation initially struggled to identify a suspect among 12 visitors. The case was solved when the thief's girlfriend attempted to sell the watch on an online platform. Unaware of its true value, she listed the luxury item, leading police directly to Yang, who had stolen the watch to give to her due to financial difficulties.
