Cristante has played 21 times for Roma this season, scoring one goal and providing two assists.
This is the second incident after Milan forward Samu Castillejo had his Rolex stolen in similar circumstances last week.
The Spaniard was in his car when two men rode up to him on mopeds and pointed a gun in his face, demanding he hand over the watch.
