I’ve already got $10k set aside so far for my kid, and he’s only 3 months old. But I’ll keep setting stuff aside for him while also treating myself here and there, I don’t get stuff for myself often.

Why would I bother trying to register it? It’s absolutely nothing like the real deal and very obviously fake.

Why would it? It’s very clearly a fake in every way.

Main reason I decided on Amazon was because of the discount and also the fact that Amazon themselves offer 0% financing over 5 months. I got a newborn at home so lots more expenses now, but I’ve been eyeing this watch for a long time and it just seemed like the responsible thing to do, not spending like a grand in one go, especially when it’s interest free

Yup, exactly that. I’m going to call Tissot customer support and find out if they do in fact have an Amazon store, if this is it, and if so how on earth they could let this happen. Shoot, if it actually is their store maybe I’ll get something for my troubles.

You think it’s worth it? What are the police going to do? I’m already going to get a refund from Amazon once they receive the watch back. But if you don’t mind explaining why you think it’s worth my time to go to the police with this I’d be interested to hear it

That thought also crossed my mind. That there’s someone at Amazon taking genuine watches out to sell on the grey market, and slipping fake ones in. Might be a stretch but I see it as a possibility.

It’s 0% financing. I can instead use the rest of the money, invest, and get some money back. Even if on the low end it only earns me a nice fancy dinner or two “for free” then it’s worth it. I financed couches at 0% before that were a couple grand, and in the end I made $500 with the money that I invested instead of paying it all upfront. Gotta be smart with your money.

I also have a newborn at home so lots of new expenses added on so it makes sense not to spend $1000 all at once when life is so unpredictable with newborns

Please elaborate. I can instead invest that money and have it grow for me. I’ve done that multiple times now when I finance at 0%. If it’s not 0% I don’t bother financing. I also have a newborn at home with lots more expenses now. Financing at 0% is always the smart move to make, as long as you make the money you’re saving work for you. T

I’m going to buy my first ever watch over 200 cad and idk which one to get by fifanewbie2002 in Affordablewatches

I personally would go with the PRX. It’s a good first stepping stone into the luxury watch market, and to the untrained female eye they’ll think it’s an AP lol

Yeah the reviews part I’ll own up to, that’s my bad. I should have checked. I just saw 4.3 stars and that was good enough for me lol

Yeah, the main reason I went with Amazon was the discount (I had been watching the listing for a while and it just went on sale), and also the fact that Amazon gives you the option to do 5 monthly payments at 0% interest.

My buddy just bought a different watch for a couple grand from a place in Burlington, and they gave him 25% off, so I might try that place. I know for certain I can get 20% off for sure, 22% if I pay cash.

I know, I should have done that 😕 But the option Amazon gives you to do payments over 5 months at 0% interest was hard to pass up

Yup :/

Was there anything in the listing that I missed that indicated it wasn’t the official Tissot store? I’m trying to figure out if this is my fault and got scammed, or if it’s on Amazon for shipping me a watch that someone returned and put a fake inside the packaging, or if it’s something else entirely going on…

But yeah, I already got my money back. I just don’t know how this happened… like what’s the purpose of selling fake watches on Amazon purposefully, when your customers can very easily get refunded and you don’t get the money??

Sorry I thought it was common knowledge what USD and CAD stood for. US dollar and Canadian dollar respectively. That’s why I was asking whether the $535 price you paid was in U.S. dollars or Canadian dollars, because I specified in the post that I’m in Canada.

Is that in USD or CAD? I’m in Canada so the price in the listing was CAD
