Charlize however, was spotted wearing a Christian Dior watch at a recent film festival while under contract with the brand. The watch company cites fraud and breach of contract as the basis of their lawsuit against Charlize in which they seek up to $20 million in damages.
The case was fought in February by Charlize however a judge has ruled that the proceedings must go to court. The trial will take place in NY in October.
