6Arnold Schwarzenegger Splurges On Expensive Watches
Arnold Schwarzenegger owns a custom-made watch worth up to $21,739
Recently, Arnold Schwarzenegger was stopped and detained at customs in Germany for a unique reason: his expensive watch went over the price limit for undeclared items.
AP reported that items and goods valued at $467 (430 euros) that will remain in the European Union are required to be declared along with duty paid on them (where appropriate), according to The Hollywood Reporter.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Arnold Schwarzenegger arrived in the country and was stopped for a routine check, which soon turned into a three-hour detainment.
Although Schwarzenegger’s Climate Initiative felt that the detainment was an “incompetent shakedown,” the actor reportedly cooperated at every step and had agreed to prepay any potential fees on the watch even though it was a personal watch.
Conan O’Brien didn’t get any sympathy for his scrawny build when compared to Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Conan the Barbarian.
