15300 advice needed.....

As these are getting harder to find in this condition do you think this is a sound deal? Thanks for your insight. Btw I know no one has a crystal ball and who knows what will happen, I'm just looking for your best guess.

Swatch v Tiffany
Thought this may be of interest to other Omega fans:BBC TEXT service stating that Swatch and Tiffany are suing each other following the collapse of their production deal.States that in 2007 Swatch agreed to produce watches under the Tiffany brand and that they would share the profits, however, last year Swatch ended the deal accusing Tiffany of blocking the development of buisiness. Sit down before reading the sums of money involved........Swatch is suing for ��2.6bn. Tiffany has launched a counter claim.That's a lot of Planet Oceans!
