Re: Ladies' Seamaster, Omega or Rolex?

: Seamaster is a trademark of OMEGA ... there's
: no such thing as a Ladies' Rolex Submariner
: , let alone a Rolex 'Seamaster' ... ???

Well apparently there is such a thing at Brinkhaus Jewellers in Vancouver, I saw two of them. One 300 M Quartz Mid Size 2962.50.91 with a blue face and one with black. The only difference compared with the Omega is the Rolex crown and name in the place of the Omega symbol and Omega name.

This is a very reputable dealer in swiss watches so why do they sell watches that aren't supposed to exist? Is there some kind of branding association between Omega and Rolex? I thought they were different companies altogether?
