Are Fossil Watches Good?

Fossil watches are good for what they are: stylish, casual fashion watches with dependable quartz movements and a very wide choice of looks. They are not meant to compete with Swiss or Japanese watchmakers on mechanical craft.

What Fossil Does Well

  • Design range: Vintage-inspired dials, rose gold, two-tone and colourful straps, for men and women.
  • Everyday wear: Relaxed styling that works with casual and smart-casual clothes.
  • Accuracy: Quartz movements are accurate and need only a battery change every few years.
  • Brand recognition: A familiar name, which helps when you are buying a gift.

What To Keep In Mind

Fossil is a fashion watch maker, so the focus is on how the watch looks. If you want a movement made in-house, a sapphire crystal on every model or a long servicing history, look at Japanese and Swiss brands. Check the crystal, the water resistance and the clasp on the model you like, because these vary.

Who It Suits

Fossil suits people who want a stylish everyday watch without a formal look: students, young professionals and anyone who changes watches with their outfits. Try the watch on in the store, because case sizes run on the larger side.
