In return, Franck Muller gets a pricey piece of land in Minsk where it can build an A-class business center and/or residential buildings.Luch Pocket Watch (credit: OJSC Luch)There are also rumors among Luch’s workers that the new owner plans to fire “everyone older than 35 years of age,” but the fears are probably grossly exaggerated, since in October 2010 Mr. Vartan Sirmakes of Franck Muller promised to keep all 800 jobs intact.Also, in October 2010, Belarusian president Alyaksandr Lukashenka said that Franck Muller was ready to promote Luch brand “at the world market” and planned to build “The Watch Village” near Minsk. He also said that the Swiss watch maker will buy 52 percent of Luch’s assets and will take in asset management the other 48 percent of the shares that will remain in the government’s hands.Franck Muller refused to comment on the news.

What are the chances of finding watches worth several million dollars in a flight? Unless you are chartering a plane with Donald Trump, it's one in a million chances. But not for the maintainence officers of this particular Air india flight that landed in Mumbai on 10 January.
