TL;DR Summary

A Swiss court has ruled that a Patek Philippe watch gifted to John Lennon by Yoko Ono for his 40th birthday belongs to Ono, following a legal dispute over its ownership. The watch, valued at $4.51 million, was stolen by Ono's former chauffeur and later purchased by an unidentified man, Mr. A, who claimed legal ownership. The court determined the watch was a stolen object, thus invalidating Mr. A's claim. The watch symbolizes a significant moment in Lennon and Ono's relationship, coinciding with Lennon's return to music and the release of his final album, "Double Fantasy."
