The Vietnamese was detained after arriving on a flight to Moscow from Hanoi with 343 Ferrari, Rolex, Omega, Chanel, Cartier and Hublot watches with an estimated worth of over three million rubles (approximately US$100,000).
Experts will determine if the watches are genuine or counterfeit, as the man was unable to produce any documents on the smuggled items.
