Movado ruined Christmas and customer service has made it worse

Movado ruined Christmas and customer service has made it worse

Bought a brand new Movado watch for my husband for Christmas. It arrived, He was sooooo excited, until he opened it.

They sent us a damaged watch. So I worked with customer service, did what they told me, drove the watch to fedex to ship it back for repair or replace. It has been a while but they finally get back to me to say that the watch is out of stock and they, without talking to me, issued a PARTIAL refund to my credit card (which by this point is fully paid off, thank you very much). They refunded most of the watch price but kept $107 until I complained about it then a second refund for $107 was issued.

Cheaters!!! Now i have a credit on a credit card, I am out all of that money until i go purchase something else on that credit card, WHAT?! Not only that but my husband now does not get the watch he was so excited about and i have a credit card overpay.. So i talk to a manager who says it should not have gone down that way (i mean I spoke to the manager AFTER speaking to a condescending customer service rep who told me in essence "too bad, so sad, deal with it") and said she would send me a 3 month promo code to hopefully get the price back down to what i initially spent, yikes.

But here's the kicker, she never actually sent the promo code, she just said she did. I cannot believe Movado is this terrible... MOVADO DID US WRONG!!!

I will update once I know the final conclusion... I am hoping they fix this and mend the damaged relationship.

Broken Watchds

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Hello,

Long story short, this is the second time Ive been *** by your company. But what do I expect from a cheap Chinese movement and a *** fashion brand?

Ive spent $800 on the museum classic, and then another $900 on another Movado for my mother, and we both didnt even get two years out of the thing. Now your customer service refuses to do anything about it, well unless I pay more money to get it shipped over to you and fixed.

I would say shame on you, but I guess Im the bigger *** for giving you a second chance with my hard earned money.

I have a three line phone, six email addresses, and way too much time on my hands. I am your worst nightmare, Movado. I Will make it my lifes mission to ensure everyone knows what a horrible company you are.

Very best regards,

Broken Watxhes

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Long story short, I bought two Mavado watches, one for myself and one for my mother. It is a shame that neither of these watches lasted more than a couple years. But what do I expect from a cheap Chinese movement? Now, despite countless emails and Communications between myself and the brand, they refuse to rectify the problem. I would say shame on you Mavado, but I guess Im the bigger *** for spending $800 on a fashion brand watch not once, but twice. I will spend the rest of my life advocating and spreading awareness of how awful both the time pieces and customer service offered by Movado is. If you truly care about fixing the issue, connect with me. 226344****

Terrible watch

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
The clasp on the watch broke after one year. After two years the watch kept stopping but would start up again after I reset the time. After three years i had the battery replaced. The watch didn't work at all and I was told that it would need a tune up for $200. Warranty was only for one year. I just tossed it.

I was truly excited for my first Movado watch to gift to my wife, and was truly disappointed upon the receipt. I purchase two watches Movado and Citizen of same price on the same day, and here is what I got:

Movado:

1- On their website it said delivery within 2 day, whereas it took 9 days,

2- Received the watch within a cheap paper box and most surprisingly the watch was sitting loose inside without any foam or any protection,

3-The watch was suppose to come with a gift wrap and ribbon etc. nothing included,

4- No receipt or any kind of paperwork whatsoever was included, upon asking Movado replied they cutting cost saving on papers,

5- They promised to follow up and contact back within 24 hours which has long passed.

Citizen:

1- Received 1 day earlier than their promised 5 days time.

2- Came with a beautiful box watch strap was wrapped a beautiful leather foam, and protection sponge on all sides.

3- Include paperwork detailing watch brand, serial no, purchased by, day of purchase, and warranty details.

4- And, yes Citizen offers 5 years of warranty against Movado 2 years.

Perfect example of all that glitters is not gold.

So, if not contacted today its going back.
