    Hi saw this and have heard about this, but really I feel it takes away some of our freedom and allow these huge corporations to control what we do, and I do not feel good about that...maybe nothing we can do, but in the world of watch collecting do you think there are enough of us to at least be heard...what will this mean for us if are only options are to be to send our watches to the manufacturer. It is a monopoly but can we do something or what are all your thoughts on this.

    Yeah, I did see that, but just can't stand it. Oh, well no need to discuss further if we are really stuck! Sorry to bring up bad news again. Cheers!

    Our only real option is to not buy Swatch group products.

    and I can imagine how popular a suggestion that will be on a website devoted to.... well..... Swatch products.
