Its an expensive habit but there is an aftermarket that you don't have with off the shelf watches. Not as good as the really elite watches like Rolex but still pretty good, and Michele is edgier and trendier. I'm not trying to say its an investment or anything, but you can spend $500 on a Michael Kors watch also- here is one,

When you get tired of this I doubt there is anything you can do but donate it. I'm glad to see Michael Kors isn't trying to sell pave watches with that giant MK in the middle though.
Yes I agree, if we sell Michele after a few years we can get several hundred if they have diamond bezel. Some of the prices I have gotten have been so good I couldn't even believe it. I used to have MK until I sold them all then started getting Michele.
 
They had 40%/35%/15%. They were marked lower than the $180 as well which I thought they had stopped doing

You mean the alligator bands were marked down first and then the 40%/35%/15% applied after that? Yes they stopped marking down the watches this way but they still do it for the bands in my stores. The watches have all the discounts applied against the retail price here (which is definitely not as good as what we used to have but still the best deals on Michelle). But for the bands, they have a lot of yellow tags here with prices around $39 etc for bands that retail for $99. So you can really get great prices on bands here, too. But no alligator bands that I saw except a bright lime green one.
Thats great they applied an *additional* 15% off the final price!

Yes, I thought they stopped the bands too, they weren't yellow tickets they were all just marked to around 129. They then gave me additional 15% for email signup although I have had email with them forever. I really only like the alligator straps and have a good amount in 16 and 18. They don't have nearly as many bands as they used to, I wish I could order alligator from other stores.
 
Hi. My watch photographs pretty much the same as your photo. The pieces of mother of pearl are not really mosaic as they are all inlaid into a bed of of gold colored metal, so there are the same number of pieces in each watch. I think it is beautiful and bought it as soon as Nordstrom had it available. Here is my watch.
Also, I have a true mosaic watch and I tried to get a decent photo, but didn't have such great luck. And it is also below.
I cannot delete the top giant photo. I do apologize.

beeble.

That second one was at my watch station I really thought about getting it but I am committed to not purchase unless it's a deal I can't resist, but that is gorgeous!
 
Thanks for the Intel. I will be calling mine to see if they have any special sales Thursday although I don't need anymore watches. I just went to one that was an hour away yesterday and got a coffee alligator band for the two tone yellow gold deco diamond dial I just got, and a aubergine, and cranberry alligator for the rose gold two tone deco diamond dial, and I got this genuine galuchat black strap All for $140. I guess I'm lucky bc the one that is 40 min from me occasionally has good things very cheap. I have almost every model except the urban in my collection now.

Some WS are having a designer watch event 8/18 in evening hours.....the one in my area is from 7-9.
 
Thank you! I might be one of the Princess' lol DCGucci definitely has the Queen title, with Michelle1x coming close to her. I love all my Michele's and am very happy with what I have acquired thus far, this is a expensive habit but I love Michele style and what the brand stands for!

Lol....Funny Samanthaloves MK! I'm going the WS in Sawgrass Mills in FL today, I'll keep you posted.
 
So, so sad. My watch came. It has a spec of the MOP on the underside of the crystal. Back it goes. Last in stock till Oct. Not sure I loved it for 2k anyway. Nothing lost....but a small let down. Too bad. Honestly, it makes me feel better to shop the outlet anyway for the discount.

YES....there is a nice aftermarket :) ;)
 
That sucks, for 2k no way!
Exactly and AMEN. No way for the price. I think it was actually $2,200. I asked if I could get a discount bc it was "damaged" and the gentleman on the phone said no, but could get it repaired free. No way again! Are you kidding me remove the crystal and start tinkering with the watch? Lol! Nope.

I will wait for it to arrive at the outlets or some sale. Funny, I bought 16mm strap last night on Ebay. Oops. The head was also smaller than I expected. Lovely watch. More due in October if anybody has there eye on it :) I have a band I can sell ya! Lol!

Onward with the shopping...... *sigh*. Bummer.

Where did you get the watch?
If Michele could fix it, they would make it right.
That watch is so gorgeous it would be worth the repair.

If Michele doesn't make the repair to your satisfaction, you can reject it. I have done that. I had a black ceramic deco that just stopped running after I bought it. Nordstrom sent it back to Michele and they replaced it, with a nearly invisible mother of pearl face. I refused it. I made them fix the original watch because the original was so gorgeous. They complied and replaced the movement.

beeble.

I would recommend waiting until the price lowers, in addition if it's fixed by Michele it will be sent to watch station and there is a huge refurbished discount, just my opinion.
