Background information:
The Minsk watch factory "LUCH" from Belarus is one of the few companies in the former Soviet watch industry that has kept and continues the full cycle of mechanical watch production.
The factory was founded in 1956 as "Minsk wristwatch factory Strahl" and produced very successfully the "Zarya" and "Vympel" brand watches, which are also in demand internationally.
In 1964 the ladies' wristwatch "Luch-1300" came on the market. This was the smallest wristwatch ever made in the Soviet Union. From 1973 the product range was expanded to include watches for motor vehicles.
The Luch company temporarily became the only supplier of such watches for the Soviet car company AwtoWAS and their Lada. The company currently employs around 7,000 people and produces around 500,000 watches.
In 2010 the famous Swiss watch company "Franck Müller International B.V." joined LUCH as an investor company and signed an investment agreement with the Republic of Belarus.
I am very happy to be able to offer these Luch watches now, because they come from a watch factory with a lot of history and are special timepieces!
I get these watches directly from the factory and they are subjected to another 3-week quality control for export specially for us.
