    What do you think? A Geneva watchmaker is taking material salvaged from the Titanic and integrating it into his watches. I think at best it's questionable.... definitely intriguing, but still questionable.

    You can also call it bad taste. Next DNA-watch will probably come from Chernobyl...

    I think that's propietary of the guests of the "Titanic" and the shipping company.

    In my opinion they have to let it in peace!
