Schwarzenegger Briefly Detained at Airport for Undeclared Luxury Watch
- Arnold Schwarzenegger was detained for 3 hours at a Munich airport for failing to declare a luxury watch
- The watch was a custom Audemars Piguet intended for auction at a charity event in Austria
- EU laws require declaration of cash or items valued over €10,000, but Schwarzenegger wasn't asked to fill out a form
- Attempts were made to pay taxes on the watch in advance, but faced issues with credit card machines
- The incident was described as an "incompetent shakedown" and "total comedy of errors"
