I'm anxious for your review on that, Aub. Then I may be in trouble. Smiley Wink

Jena:  it's some kind of tracking software that a lot of sites are using.   I see ads from dept stores, amazon, wow, etc when I am on various other unrelated sites.

It's very annoying.

 

Hello to all.  I have no watches on order,  but I'm still waiting for your reviews of new watches.   I can live vicariously.

You know, I've been using AdBlock for so many years that I didn't really know how bad the ads were. But at work, for some insane reason, they won't let me install AdBlock so I see all that stuff and it's fairly disturbing how closely they track where you go and what you look at.

Jena, it's really pretty!  My wrist is about 7" exactly & I usually wear about a 7¼" bracelet & I think I'll only need to take one link out to fit me, though it's not super loose, just slightly loose.  I think it was a return or maybe a sample, because it wasn't wrapped in plastic, except for around the case & had a sticky sticker across the clasp, that I had to use rubbing alcohol & some effort to get the stickum gunk off the bracelet.  Other than that, it's still keeping time & looks fine.  The bracelet is sort of stiff & I'm not sure how small it could be sized, due to the way the links are made.  It's hard to describe, but the I think it's because the ceramic is set down into the stainless links all the way around & the bracelet is a little thicker than usual..  The diamonds on the case are white & sparkly.

I just looked at the back of the bracelet on the Blue Manta & it doesn't have arrows telling you which way to push the pins out to size it, so I think I might take it to my jeweler to size it

Hello Ladies,

 

Happy New Year to all. I hope the New Year has good health and happiness for all. Just popping in to say hello and vent a little !

 

As you all know that I bought the Technomarine Blue manta in December from Evine and yesterday I noticed after reading Lavenderjunkie's post here that it had dropped in price. I wrote a note to Evine CS and requested a price adjustment since the watch was well within the holiday return period and just a day over the 30 day price adjustment 

policy. 

 

This morning I received a note back from CS saying they are unable to honor the price adjustment since it is not within 30 days. I must say I was a little upset. I did write back to let them know my disappointment and that a little gesture would have gone a long way in terms of goodwill and customer loyalty .

 

I must at this time mention that the Q has always done right by me when I requested a price adjustment  ( and I have not been unreasonable in asking) and the Q customer service always tries to help and accommodate the customer. Giving credit where it is due. 

 

Thankyou for for letting me vent/ Anisha 


I'm sorry to hear of your experience with Evine's customer service, @anisha.  I vividly recall your lovely photo of the Blue Manta in a previous thread so decided to purchase the black/rose at the Once Only price.  It was delivered while I was on vacation so didn't have access to it until yesterday.  I'm quite impressed with the piece and look forward to having it sized to fit my wrist properly.  Hope you're able to enjoy your stunning watch in spite of the unfortunate experience with CS.  Warm regards!!

Last night, I looked in the box the Blue Manta came in to see if there were sizing directions in the brochure (there weren't) & found along with the warranty card a clear plastic card that said Diamond Authenticity Certificate saying the diamonds used on the watch are full cut Top Wesselton diamonds.  I guess this is an older way of grading diamonds?

Re: WATCH COLLECTORS........JANUARY 2016

Well, I am really mad tonight. I ordered several pieces of jewelry from Evine during their gem event. The tracking says they were delivered in my mailbox by the Post Office yesterday, but I did not receive them. I waited to see if they would show up today and I did receive several packages. One of which was the Lupah moonphase with the sparkly dial (very pretty). But still no sign of my jewelry. My postman is fairly psychotic, so he probably put it in the wrong box. According to Evine, I have to wait for them to complete their investigation before they do anything. Cat Mad

aprimo:  I hope your jewelry shows up soon.  It's so frustrating when they show delivery but you know it hasn't been delivered to YOU.  Glad you like the Lupah moonphase.  It looked like a beautiful watch.
