my Fossil watch

Yay! Finally I've got it repaired. I was surprised when I came to realise that it's been a year, one whole year, since it became spoiled when I was in Krabi.

It's a birthday gift from my mum when I was in high school. Form 4 or Form 5? I don't quite remember. It's my favourite watch. Previously, I didn't dare to wear it so often and it was so well-kept in the casing. Until I found its batteries died, and chemicals of batteries had leaked out and spoiled the electronic parts of the watch, I started regretting that I should have worn it more often. Else it'd be a waste of buying a watch, right? (Plus, it was kinda expensive to me. hehe.)

So my friend helped send it to Fossil Service Centre in SG. Spent about MYR100+ for repair. And I happily wore it to Krabi. Too bad the second spoil happened after it'd been repaired not more than 1month. Carelessness was the reason I shall say. After it dropped onto the floor, it stopped moving. Ahhhh! My heart broken following that fell too. Feel sad because it's my favourite watch, feel sad because of $$$ also!

This second spoil I almost gave up sending it to repair. Was extremely disappointed by the service centre in KL. It took a very long time, I guess about two months? Don't quite remember. For them to 'repair' the watch. What made me angry was after waiting for such a long period, when I went there to collect back the watch after they called and told me the watch was ready, my precious watch was still not functioning at all! And they charged me MYR44 for the alleged new batteries! (oh ya, the reason why the watch stopped moving they gave me was because of batteries!) I actually explained to them how it's spoiled, and the sales assistant in fact has written in the service order to check movement/batteries. They never really give a damn on the instructions, simply changed new batteries and charged me. So I gotta send back the watch to KLCC, again, emphasized problem with the movement of this watch and insisted them to call me to confirm before they repair anything that cost me extra fee again.

Finally, I received the call from KLCC Fossil again one month ago. The watch has been fixed and is ready to be collected. Went to collect it yesterday. Was thinking if they charge me anything extra this time, I would just ask them to keep the watch and I would not pay for anything anymore. Luckily, the end of this story is, my precious Fossil watch is back to me safe and sound. They did not charge me at any repair fee this time. They never refund money on the batteries to me though.

I am happy that I have my watch back now. :) and it's functioning! tee-hee! Now you'll see me wearing it everyday!
