Martinez allegedly slipped something into the drinks of at least two men.
In that incident, she accompanied a man to his Warren St. home in Cobble Hill, Brooklyn, and left with over $18,000 in cash and jewelry — including a Rolex watch, officials said.
She was also busted for a Sept. 4 theft where she allegedly met a man at a bar, returned to his condo at the new BKLYN Gold, a doorman building on Gold St. in Brooklyn Heights, and left a few hours later with the man’s jewelry box, which contained $40,000 in bling, including three Rolex watches and a Breitling.
She was first arrested on July 22, when she swiped a wallet from a man she met at Gottino, a West Village wine bar, officials said.
On Aug. 24, she went to a victim’s hotel room at the Ritz Carlton and ran off with his watch, officials said.

Martinez was charged in at least five incidents.
Martinez was due in court Thursday to face charges from some of the cases, officials said.
Her latest arrest comes amid a spate of high-priced watch thefts
by beautiful women, who wine and woo their victims before stealing their high-priced jewelry.
One victim was Knicks forward Derrick Williams, who lost more than $600,000 in jewelry early Saturday after he partied with two women at the Up & Down club on W. 14th St. in Chelsea.
Martinez hasn’t been linked to the Williams’ theft.
