Quartz movement, Dress watch, Chronograph, Polished silver-tone hands with luminous accents, Polished silver-tone markers, White indices, Polished stainless steel black ion plated bezel, case, crown and selector buttons, Polished stainless steel silver-tone caseback, 50 meters/165 feet water resistant Founded in 1984 when timepieces were created more for function than fashion, Fossil began to transform this notion with its unique combination of vintage 1950s Americana design and affordably accessible cool style. Adding to their collectability were the one-of-a-kind, trademark tins that came with the watches that mixed a creative spirit with a sense of humor. These iconic boxes are nearly as popular as the watches they hold and are regularly collected and traded throughout the world at flea markets, antique shops, and on eBay. Today, Fossil produces over 300 different styles of watches in a continuously changing lineup. While the majority of designs are created by in-house designers, Fossil has reached out to such contemporary artisans as product designer Philip Starck and famed architect Frank Gehry (designer of the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain) to create uniquely modern timepieces. In addition to style innovations, Fossil has also helped introduce innovative technologies into watches, such as the Wrist PDA that ran the Palm operating system. Fossil also offers complementary lines of small leather goods, belts, handbags, sunglasses, jewelry and apparel. |

A good one!Dec 29, 2008
By Ricardo Pimentel To first impression it looks like just a little bit big watch but after taking put it I realized that is an excellent watch as much for clothes to dress as for casual wear.
I like it a lot, its the best watch that I ever had.

Awesome WatchOct 04, 2011
By RivalGary I've always been a big fan of large watches and this one is the largest I've owned so far. It goes great with my corporate dress wear as well as casual wear. It's a great watch that I would recommend to anyone.
Perfect for any occasionJan 05, 2012
By Torian I was in desperate need of a new watch and decided on this one nearly at first sight. It's large enough to make a statement but sleek and subtle enough to adapt to virtually any style. This is the perfect watch for everyday use that also works flawlessly in a casual, business, or dressy affair. 5/5
My Precious!Oct 21, 2011
By Danny This one is a show stealer.You can hold it up against a Tag Heur and it would still look great!Please note the case diameter is 47mm which means that this watch is huge!If you have a small wrist i wouldn't suggest this watch.It would look really bad.Trust me!It just fitted my arm.A couple of extra mm and i would have to gift it to someone else with a big wrist(which is highly unlikely since i fell in love with this one!!)The fossil.com website has a wrist size guide pdf [...].Check it before buying!Also,this one is heavy when compared to other dress watches.As other reviewers wrote i have to say this one will look good in any dress! The only gripe i have is the instruction manual.either i got the wrong manual or i am not doing it right.Anyway this is a must buy.You won't feel disappointed!
Love itJan 20, 2011
By A. Stimson The watch is gigantic. The picture really doesn't do it justice. The face is literally bigger across than my girlfriend's wrist so it's quite comical.
I've gotten more compliments on it than any other watch. It works with casual wear, and it makes a statement dressed up with a suit as well. I work in finance with people who have Patek Phillipe's and Tag Heuers and have still received compliments. Plus the price is right.
Two complaints - The watch face broke within 6 months of owning it. I'm pretty sure it was my fault, but its sheer size makes it a large target. Also, there's no date. I guess that's part of the styling, but it's still annoying.
It's still a 5 star watch at this price, even with those two issues. Love it.
