J356460 "Gossip" watch reissued as "Isaac's design"...

[ Edited ]

Couldn't copy paste pic, but saw this presentation earlier today and I had this exact watch, with a different band, (gray faux croco)...was one of my favorite Gossip watches from Q, back when they had that brand...until the rose-tone started wearing off, but that brand was just "cheap and cheerful."

But today they presented it, with new colors, different bands, as an Isaac "original"...just goes to show, something often discussed on the boards, how "designed" these "designer" brands on Q actually are..."not."

Just sayin'... still a cute style, tho' too "cheap and cheerful" as gold tone wears off, and definitely not an Isaac design. (ps. Joan Rivers old watches...the gold never came off.)

Very interesting. Knew he wasn't really designing, but . . . so disappointing in many things on QVC in the last 10-15 years.

I swear his shoes are Aerosoles. I have identicals in Isaac and Aerosole; I can't tell the difference.

perhaps GOSSIP fell under the same parent company as ISAAC?

if that is the case and since gossip seems to be gone, they can market the design again under the ISAAC label.

 

the two brands could also have had some of the same designers working for both.

Do you know this information as a fact or is it just your opinion.

@MaPill

A friend of mine picked up one of his watches in a bracelet style. I think it was originally a gunmetal but the finish completely peeled off! Looked really awful

I love Isaac's watches. I have about 4 or 5 of them. Since Gossip was a Q house brand maybe Isaac used to design for them. Who really knows.

I don't think Isaac designs much of his Q stuff.  He often seems surprised when an item is presented; like he's seeing it for the first time.
