In the past, I’ve sold a fair number of watches, both wrist and pocket types. I’ve actually bought many myself, as I love the Zazzle watches.
Unfortunately, I hardly ever sell a watch anymore, and I may have just found out why. Try to search for them. I get results, but generally not wrist watches or pocket watches. Lots of apple wrist bands, but not what I’m looking for. Tried to narrow the category, but that was no help.
yes zazzle all messed up as par from doing update and not batá testing first .you are 100 % correct searching for watches is useless now I can see why my watch sales drop to nil
See this forum link (scroll down just a little bit re: watches) : heads-up-message-oos-discontinued-temp-sold-out-thread
thank you so question are the watches imported from china and designed in the USA .
Some styles show as being out of stock, but many are not. I just ordered one of the bracelet styles a month ago, and like all the watches I’ve received from Zazzle, I love it. But just can’t bring them up in search.
I don’t believe they are made in China; thought Japan. But I could be wrong.
Worryingly, this suggests that the search function, (which is a critical part of this platform for buyers), is not working as it should. How many potential sales are designers losing because visitors are unable to find their creations? Zazzle should look into this urgently.
Yeah, I’m wrong on that. Nevermind…!
Hi all,
Thanks for flagging this issue. I reported it to the team and I will let you know when there is an update.
Thanks, Mark.

9 Days and still not fix .
Today I was able to get decent results when I searched for watches. Appears to be fixed somewhat.
However, pocket watches still have a problem. For example, I have several Rottweiler dog pocket watches. When I search for rottweiler pocket watch, I get sweatshirts. And the "refine by category only shows clothing & electronics…not jewelry or watches.
Thank you for the fix so far!
Also, I have a question about what is SUPPOSED to show in search results.
I have two cat watches which have each sold once. When I search for “cat watch” I get 6 pages of results, 360 watches. Neither of those two that have sold are in the results. What is the limit for search results…I thought it used to be 13 pages. Is there now a time limit on sold products? In other words, if it has been 2 years since a product sold, is that product excluded from results after a certain time, even though there appears to be room to include it?
In reorganizing my stores and products, I’d love to have a bit of insight here, and I’m sure others would like to know, also.
Thank you.
Still doesn’t work for me.
Yeah, it’s back to being worthless again. One more avenue of profit eliminated…with no response from Z, as usual.
