Armani Watch

I bought a watch from this company through Amazon last February. In May I had to return it because a pin came out the strap. The same thing happened at the end of the year. I got in contact with Lingray and they told me to return it. I sent it by courier they received it on 13th January at 14.42, someone called Kennedy signed for it. And guess what I have heard nothing back. So Lingray have stole my watch.

Watch broke

I bought a Empirio Armani watch and my husband loved it until one day the emblem fell off and started going backwards and forwards at the bottom of the watch. I emailed yourselves a picture and got told to send the watch to you. I sent the watch in April and have not heard anything yet, it is now November 26th!!

Rubbish

Like many others I bought a watch from Lingray trading as the Watch Den. You can track down the Directors Quite easily on line and find their addresses and the accountants who are in Cheshire.
My watch was returned for repair under guarantee just before they ceased trading and I am unable to get it returned. I think this is theft as they are making no attempt to return peoples property sent to them in good faith.
NOTE
I have made further enquiries. Anyone caught out in this should contact their credit card company!!!!

ADDITION
I have been asked by Trustpilot to elaborate on my experience with this company so let me add.
My watch went back to them at their request for a guarantee repair in June 2015.
Despite letters to both company addresses they did not reply.
A letter to their accountants went without reply.
The Directors refuse to reply.
It was only when I named the Directors and gave their addresses in this review that there was a response. (Trustpilot have made me take down the address)
After nearly 6 months of no communication, the Directors now say sorry they have been unable to communicate before and have given an email address to contact.
THIS IS A MOST APPALLING SERVICE AND I WOULD NEVER BUY FROM THEM AGAIN OR FROM THEIR NEW COMPANY, THAT YOU CAN TRACK DOWN QUITE EASILY. I would put the name but no doubt Trustpilot would make me take that down too.
Trustpilot have now suspended my access so obviously they don't want people to tell the truth.

Thieves

Sent my watch back for repair as i found out it wasn't even waterproof. They have had it for over 3 months now. I had contact with them originally to say they have received it. Now they don't answer phone calls or emails. £400 down the drain

where is my watch!!

I bought a armani watch from the the Watch Den (this was the other name the director Mr Graham philip Croft of Lingray timepieces was trading under) which was faulty, therefore i returned it and after two months of them telling me they were awaiting parts, they stopped replying, websites went down both lingray and the watch den and no response on the phone. even if a company goes into administration they have no right keeping other peoples property. unprofessional and would strongly advise anyone to stay away from lingray and any other company mr croft trades under.

What a pile of rubbish!!

I bought an Armani watch from Lingray, within a week the strap broke and fell off my wrist, smashing the ceramic strap into pieces and cracked the screen. I told them it was faulty and I want it replaced. They said they won't replace it but if I send it back they'll fix it and then charge me for repairs. Despite arguing with them they still haven't replaced it. £300 down the drain, will never buy from them again.

Dear Mr Bray,

We are really sorry that this has happened... unfortunately no manufacturer covers watch straps, and also to note ceramic watches and straps are very scratch resistant but they do tend to be brittle if knocked or banged in anyway and yes this could cause it to break and fall off your wrist. We do sell many of these watches and it is rare for them to break but we do believe in this case that there had to have been some kind of damage to the strap prior to before it fell from your wrist, which in turn caused it to hit the floor and smash. We have had no contact from you since our last conversation and in every case like this we do strive to help our customers in rectifying any problems so we would urge you to get back in touch with us soon and we will do our best to help you get your watch fixed.

Yours sincerely

A bit of a glitch, but customer service was excellent!

Prior to my purchase I emailed the company to request a student discount as on the website it said 'Make us an offer', therefore I did and my request was granted- fantastic! I had free next day delivery which was even better and even got a text to say when the courier was arriving. When the watch came and I gave it to my boyfriend for his birthday he noticed scratches on the face and surrounding the watch, I quickly emailed the company and got a fast response to say they'd send a new watch out the next day and the courier would take the old one and return it to the company. I was amazed with the fast response and generosity of the company as I did not expect to receive a new watch without them checking that the faulty watch first. Really impressed with the service, would definitely purchase from them again. Thank you!

Hi Rebecca,

Many thanks for you review... we are sorry your watch arrived with scratches, normally all watches are thoroughly checked before being sent out and we will be investigating as to how your watch managed to leave the building with the defects. We are glad that we could get this resolved quickly for you and that you are happy with the service overall.

We do hope your partner likes his new watch.

Thanks again

Brilliant service

The watch I bought was not as described, so Dave Thorpe offered me a full refund. (I was on holiday in Australia at the time). He e-mailed me a returns form and label.
On my return I posted the watch back and received a full refund, plus the cost of postage within 48 hours.
That sort of service is very rare these days.
Thanks a lot Lingray.

Genuine Products

From my 3 purchases I can say Lingray are a genuine company selling genuine products. They used to be very competitive but arent so these days with more companies around.

Hi and thanks for your review,

You have made a good point in your comments... but just to note that every product now has a "make us an offer" option if the price is out of your budget and we also offer price matching against other UK based company's where the product is in stock and available for next day delivery.

Thanks again

Always my first point of call for my next pressie.

I've used Lingray for purchasing several watches over the last few years and have always for them to be the most efficient, honest and professional company to deal with.
I've purchased approximately 8-10 watches over the years from Lingray and while the watches have always been great value, delivery has been stunning including to Australia.
I would absolutely recommend this company for your next watch purchase and have done several times since first dealing with them.

Hi Andy, after checking the related order I think you may have confused us with another company and purchase, as your order number relates to a Ben Sherman - Men's Round Silver Dial Stainless Steel Watch model number R775 and not a mantle clock.

We hope you like your new Ben Sherman watch.

Many thanks
