My Marc Ecko Watch: R.I.P (After only a year!)

Posted by Michael on March 15, 2010

Hey Everyone!

I was going to wear my Marc Ecko watch the other day, and i went to put it on and i noticed the time was wrong…Then i looked again and it stopped!!

I cant believe i have had this watch just around a year, and the battery is already dead! This cost £180, so its not exactly a cheap watch; Not only that, my good D&G watch which i LOVE is almost 3 years old, cost around the same, and is still going strong on the original battery.

How can Marc Ecko sell something for such a large amount of money and give you the worst quality! Sure, i could get the battery replaced, but that would cost money, probably a lot. Marc Ecko say in their limited warrenty that you should only get them to replace the battery or any part, and you have to send your watch away for a quote. WTF!? I paid lots of money for one of their watches, and they expect me to send it to them so they can hold it to ransom!!

There is no way i will send them my watch.

I will never buy a Marc Ecko watch again, or any other product by them. I would never recommend anyone buy their products, they cost a premium, but you get budget quality and service.

Time for a New Watch?

I havent bought a new watch for a while now, i have had these 2 for around 3 years, maybe it is time for a new one. The first one i got was the Dolce and Gabbana Watch, i love it. It is big, D&G, and bling.

The next year i got an even bigger one which i saw. It is Marc Ecko, with a slightly bigger face. Even though this is a newer watch i prefer my D&G watch, i just think it looks better. What do you think?

The next watch could be an Ice Watch. I like the look of this one, but the brand is not as prestegious as D&G. My other 2 watches are silver, so it might be nice to get a black one for some variation. This one is around £200.
