#Also the gang making a single™ experiment with the lava rock then immediately escalating to go and rob a jewerly store

The lava rock is one the most mysterious plot concepts that we had in a while. Because, unlike other concepts like hamon or the spin or stands, it brings something undefined and detached from tangible reality: Luck.

It can't be measured because it is a concept that we humans invented. Yet, it can be proved to work by arranging certain "conditions" that let actions fall into a "lucky" pattern. So; this is just a theory, the lava rock doesn't bring monetary worth things on itself, but it controls opportunities that can bring things of monetary values to its "owner."

Usagi, Dragona, and Jodio thought that if they let the rock touch something valuable then said thing will go to them regardless of everything. However, it seems that their experiment showed how the lava rock has to make situations to give back monetary value.

Usagi throws a 20$ at the ground, someone grabs it and uses it to buy stuff, at that time Paco is coming back with their drinks and by pure "coincidence" a fly lands into Paco's drink, then Paco goes back and with his wits he gets back not only the 20$ as a full refund, but also gets a new drink as well.

The lava rock not only returned the 20$ bill, but also brought back more of what was lost in the form of a new drink. So it could be possible that the lava rock needs a perfect set of "steps" to bring fortune.

So why did Dragona, and Usagi failed? Because the environment that they chose, a high end jewerly store with a lot of security, had too many "steps" to consider for the lava rock.

An open food court vs a small room, a single 20$ bill vs four watches, two relaxed people to "pull" and "bring" the bill vs four people on high alert at every moment for the watch.

In that situation there wasn't even a single "lucky" moment, and it seems that the lava rock worked with what they had for the moment, which is why one of the watches is missing.
