some patent thoughts

The question is:

- did they sell their liscence to dkny
- have they ever patent it: lasts 20 years max.
- even than they should ask

- may be they play as tag is not interested in
- does dkny has bigger pockets than tag? If so they play proably a game

- tag probably only has a patent for europe or switzerland: so dkny may sell it every where but no in this countries

so or so I would be interested in the claps and the fitting between the case and the bracelet as they are very filigrn in the first version manhattan and tend to break very easy.

: This new watch from DKNY has the same design
: as the Heuer Manhattan.. thats odd!
: Also available in "Gunmetal
: Black"... Even more interesting is that
: they are copying the Easy Rider design too:
: Were I TAG-Heuer, I'd be filing
: litigation... What's old is new again I
: guess...
