The entire western world has been ragging in just about anything that has "Made in China" label on it now matter how good of a quality said product maybe, while placing a high value of anything that are made from just about any European county or North America no matter how shoddy or mediocre.  Not specifically defending Ball HQ in Hong Kong, but can you blame them?

Back to the watch thing: Honestly, unless you're a repeat, paying customer, your "relationship" is over after they ring you up and you walk out that door with the nice bag.  Next week they won't even remember your name.  Get it online and donate that $800 to your local animal rescue or sponsor some adoption fees for families that want to adopt, but can't afford the adoption fee.

Sorry to hear about your pup.  One of mine was taken by cancer last year.  We still think about him everyday. Whatever makes you feel better.  Maybe bring home another pup from a local shelter?

commented on What watch do you wear to work? ·

I too work from home.  So some days I wear nothing at all.

My wife gifted me a samsung gear s3 classic back in 2017? It doesn't hold a charge longer than half a day now.  I wear it on some hikes to keep stats. Other time it just sits on the charger. I already tried replacing the battery myself,  but couldn't get the back case off b/c I slightly rounded the odd Y-shape screw head even though I was using the proper screwdriver bought off of AMZ for it.
