The Fiasco

So a while back the watch I bought for the husband when we first got married started falling apart. The numbers were falling off the face (go figure)...so we headed up to the Park City to go to the fossil outlet. He found a watch for around $30 that he liked and bought.

A couple of weeks later the face started condensing so back up to PC we headed to exchange it. The store no longer had the same type so we exchanged it for another watch that was about $50.

A couple of weeks later Aaron was at work, looked down at his watch and noticed that the face had completely cracked in half. Soooo again we headed up to PC to fix it. The store said they would send it in to the manufacturer and mail it back to us fixed.

A couple of weeks later we received a letter in the mail stating they did not have the part to fix the watch so they gave us a credit for $175 to the fossil website to order a new watch. We figured we came out ahead in the deal.

Aaron hopped on the website and ordered the following watch:







A couple of days later the watch arrived and here is what it looks like in real life:






not that big of a deal? Well here is what it looks like on my wrist:





If you can't tell it is HUGE!!! (the picture is not the greatest as I was trying to hold my camera far enuf away from my wrist but that didn't work so well.)

The website measures everything in metrics so he didn't realize how big of a watch he was ordering and it seriously weighs about 10 pounds. I didn't know they even made watches that big! It could double for a desk clock. Check out how stinkin big the buttons on the side are also!

Needless to say he is going to try and exchange it again but we had a good chuckle out of it.
