Waterproof watch with broken band
Waterproof watch with broken band
ProductI bought this watch back in April, eh? But by the time May rolled around, there was water inside the glass and a screw had fallen out of the band in June, can you believe it? I've sent two emails already, but no one has gotten back to me yet!
Duck watch purchase
Duck watch purchase
ProductSo, I picked up this really neat Duck watch, you know? It looked awesome and it was even made in America, which is pretty cool. But can you believe it? It keeps stopping, even though I've changed the battery several times. The company is saying it's likely just the battery causing the issue, but I have a feeling there's something else going on. I have a suspicion that they're just using the "made in America" label to make it seem all fancy, when really it's just made with cheap parts from somewhere else. I was so disappointed that the only movement this watch seemed to make was going back in its box!
Leather goods purchase

Product
The company's marketing tactics are pretty good, but I'm not sure about the actual quality of their leather goods. They don't really tell us much about the materials they use, and their descriptions are kind of vague, just saying things like "luxe" or "premium" leather without giving any real details. It makes me wonder if their products are really as high-quality as they claim, especially for the prices they're asking for.
Also, I wrote a review on an item I bought from them, but they didn't publish it on their website. That makes me worry about how they handle customer feedback. I guess I'll have to see how my leather zip travel kit holds up in the long run, but so far, I'm feeling pretty doubtful about the whole experience.
Recent wallet purchase
Recent wallet purchase
ProductI bought a wallet from this store recently, eh. Gotta be honest, my experience wasn't great. Used it for a bit and noticed the material wasn't as durable as I thought. Ended up breaking a few plastic credit cards, not cool. Only the metal one survived, making me question the wallet's quality, you know?
Watch and wallet
Watch and wallet
ProductI bought a watch and wallet last year. The wallet fell apart after only 6 months, the watch battery died after just 5 months, and the strap started fading. I had to fork out extra cash for maintenance and replacements. It was really frustrating dealing with such low quality and service. I definitely wouldn't recommend buying from them, especially if you're in Canada.
