Fingers crossed for you @audio.bill

I then received two apologetic emails for the additional delays, and today finally received a tracking number so at least they've printed the label. Just hoping that it arrives brand new with full factory plastic on case and bracelet since I've heard of some others receiving what were clearly display models from NR. If that happens it will be returned for a full refund, but if new it will be worth the wait since it's a great watch.

So... what did you decide about this MS? I agree it looks very dark and more black than blue but maybe under stronger lighting. Just curious whether you decided to keep it or not.

Never again… Nordstrom Rack stinks! As I feared based on other's shared experiences not only did the Hamilton show up without the outer box and manual, but it’s clearly a display model with no protective plastic on case or bracelet and some visible scuffs. To return it I can wait (who knows how long) until their stores reopen and return it there. I’d rather get things moving, so would prefer to ship it back but their online system says I’d have to pay $5.95 for return shipping. Their customer service phone is so busy you can’t even get through, so I initiated a chat session but it’s going to be a while since I started at over 325 in the queue… I know I'll end up getting a full refund but it's just not worth the hassle and time! They list the watches as new but then have no problem shipping out their store display models.

Still no progress on my order from Meranom placed on March 15. I realize there's a global pandemic so I am not complaining but rather am abandoning hope.
