My watch batteries give out at the most inconvenient times — when I have a huge deadline and can’t get to the shop. In fact one of my coworkers bought a little tiny screwdriver just so he can change batteries for me. Clearly I need a wind-up watch! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-nas-watch-woes-shoe-return-and-a-bag#post-2333459 Fri, 04 Aug 2023 13:22:32 +0000 Dottie 2333459@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Too funny!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-nas-watch-woes-shoe-return-and-a-bag#post-2333385 Thu, 03 Aug 2023 19:30:58 +0000 RobinF 2333385@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Haha too funny.

The new bag is gorgeous. Your greyed whites are my favorite whites too. I never knew that a chain strap could be comfortable, but I'm glad it is because it's a really nice design element. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-nas-watch-woes-shoe-return-and-a-bag#post-2332897 Mon, 31 Jul 2023 05:26:39 +0000 Bijou 2332897@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I liked the R&amp;B loafers but LOVE the silver loafers you have replaced them with - so elegant.

Love the new All Saints one you got instead! The chain detailing looks comfy, and it's YOUR type of greyed-white :)</p> <p>As for the watch - another URGH! :(</p> <p>I'm sorry, and would be irked too. You are sensible to take deep breaths and to draw on your magnanimous side! Inspirational. I'm hoping for a happy ending. Visually, it's a beautiful watch :)&nbsp;</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-nas-watch-woes-shoe-return-and-a-bag#post-2332857 Sun, 30 Jul 2023 23:06:33 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2332857@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p> <div><div>*************************<br /></div><div><br /></div><div><b>UPDATE ON THE WATCH:</b></div><div>I<br /> got a call from the watcher repairer today. He asked a couple of<br /> questions about the trouble I was having with the watch, and then asked<br /> if I had <i>wound</i> it. I had no idea it needed to be wound!!! Who<br /> knew "Swiss-made automatic movement" meant "NO BATTERY"?? Not I! I had<br /> looked up the manual for the watch online, and it contained instructions<br /> for watches with batteries and watches without. I was sure mine must<br /> have a battery. But no! Is that hilarious or what?!? I gotta say, if the<br /> Nordstrom employees at the jewelry counter had a clue about the<br /> watches, they could have figured out the problem without sending it to<br /> the repair person! Oh well, I'm glad to have it back. Hopefully it will<br /> continue to run, with occasional winding. (It also stays running when<br /> you wear it, by the movement of your wrist.) <br /></div><div>*******************************<br /></div><div>&nbsp;<b><br /></b></div></div><div>I am so disappointed that my new watch stopped working. I wore it every day after I got it, and one morning I went to put it on and it had stopped. I re-set it and it started working again, but only for a few hours. I brought it back to Nordstrom today, thinking I would return it and order another one. I decided to let them take it in for repair. They assured me that if it ends up needing to be returned, they would exchange it for another one, at the same price, even though NAS will likely be over by that point. I am pretty irked that a brand-new Swiss watch has failed, thinking that Nordstrom took a bunch of old, faulty merchandise off Tissot's hands to pass on to us unsuspecting sale-shoppers. Some more magnanimous part of me is trying to believe that defects happen and that Nordstrom and/or Tissot can right the situation. <br /></div><div><br /></div><div>I also returned the Rag &amp; Bone Shiloh loafers, which just didn't fit my foot completely comfortably, and I ended up getting a non-sale pair, the Stuart Weitzmans that I <a rel="nofollow" href="https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/found-chunky-loafershttp://">reviewed in a separate post</a>. <br /></div><div><br /></div><div>And I got to see the AllSaints Evaline crossbody in pampas white in person, and loved it. It is a really nice slightly grayed-out white, soft leather, brushed silver hardware, perfect size. I'm not crazy about chain straps, but this one is smooth, not too heavy, and comfortable on the shoulder. I like this crossbody much better than the Madewell one I got recently that is cute, but so small it's a nuisance to use. It will be going to Goodwill, since it was nonreturnable. (I took that into account when I bought it on deep discount, thinking if I donated it after a few uses, I wouldn't be upset.)</div><div><br /></div><div>Every year, I get this feeling of "last call!" toward the end of the sale, trying to assess whether I'll regret not buying something. I'm pretty sure this is it for me for NAS 2023!</div></p>
