After French Montana claimed that Akon handed him a fake watch, Akon has finally come out.
French disclosed a year ago that Akon had given him a Hublot watch for his birthday. But when he took it to his jeweler to get “iced out,” he discovered that it was a fake.
What do you mean? [The jeweler] asked me after taking a glance at me. French remarked, “My guy, Akon did not give you this.

Akon addressed the matter last week in an appearance with Real 92.3’s “Cruz Show,” claiming he had no idea it was a fake since he was not familiar with watches.
“I didn’t really wear watches. He said, “I just spotted something I liked that looked great and I bought it.
Akon was as shocked to learn that it was a replica as was French. “What do you mean fake?” I questioned. The crap tick, is that right? He jokingly said, “The shit work, right? “I don’t know it’s a Hublot replica. I was clueless.

Akon claimed to have paid $5,000 for the timepiece, a significant discount from the going rate for a genuine Hublot. “I thought that was pricey for a watch. But obviously, that wasn’t pocket change for a Hublot. I had no idea I was receiving a discount, but that’s a fairly sizable one.
But Akon was able to chuckle as he looked back. “This ungrateful ass ni**a, I thought. I recently spent $5,000 on a watch, and this ni**a is out of control.
There are no harsh feelings, though. I forgive you, my brudda, French responded in response to French’s reposting of Akon’s interview, adding, “U still owe me a genuine watch.”
