I have had Fossil watches for over 20 years. They not only look good but work well. The brand speaks for itself and their fashion follows the times as I do with watches as well.

This watch has endured a motorcycle accident, shorted across a battery terminal and general everyday being beat up. I just recently had to send it back to Fossil because the band broke.

I bought a few (4) watches in the 80's!! I still have the tin cases they came in, although I've gotten a couple new bands for the 2 of them.

I bought a Fossil watch for the availability to use apps with it. This watch has been the best I have owned! I love how I can customize my watch face and it syncs with my Google Fit. I've owned a lot of smart watches and this one is by far the best!

I love this watch, it is stylish and I get compliments when I wear it! I have had it for 2 years and the battery life is great!!! I will buy more soon!!!

My fossil watch is about 6 years old. It knew failed but for the battery. I love the watch but it does seem to go through batteries. Their watches tend to have a lot of extras and I think that uses the batteries up quicker. It does run well. The batteries last me about 8 months.

I have never experienced any issues with my Fossil watches. Each have a unique style. My first Fossil watch, purchased in 2013, is still going strong. I have purchased 2 more since the initial purchase. The store associate I deal with, Sawgrass Mills Mall, is always polite, kind and helps me find the best deals. I also purchased other Fossil products i.e. shades, wallets, and key chains.

I remember fondly my Fossil, kept great time, I am hard on a watch. It remained good looking, sharp, eye-catching -- then I lost it.

I purchase 2 watches then I found them on Kohl for almost 1/3 of the price, same watch. I like them but for the price we pay should have a longer life and quality.
Reviewed Sept. 1, 2018
Accurate, durable, comfortable and easy to read. Great price and good selection. Makes a nice gift. Not too trendy, but not run of the mill. Fairly easy to find in stores but easier online.

My family as well as myself, have bought many Fossil watches in the last 20 yrs. We loved them. The first watches we bought, lasted at least 5 yrs. As we bought more and time passed, the quality and longevity of the watches decreased. I have at least 3 watches that didn't even last a year. We spent good money, thinking the watches would be of the same quality that we were used to by the brand. Now we don't even look at watches by Fossil, when we are shopping.

I love Fossil, they are well made without killing your budget. They use quality materials which make them distinctive. It looks better than more expensive brand. It’s versatile for any occasion.

Very Stylish. Comfortable to wear. Can use it with jeans, to work or go out day or night. Good face size and easy to read numbers. Reliable mechanism to keep the time. Love how it looks on my wrist and how it works.

Look great but break too soon. They have plenty of watches but they rust, battery dies and they stop working. The price point is ok but for the time they last, I stopped buying them.

Fossil is a brand that offers many very fashionable choices. I have purchased several over the years and have found they are OK for the price. Mostly I have enjoyed the up-to-date look of the watches.

Very good brand. Did not experience a lot of trouble with the brand. Interchangeable bands and faces. You could read the numbers. The watches were comfortable and some shine in the dark. Enjoyed the product.

My Fossil watch has been a casual favorite of mine for about eight years because it is attractively styled, accurate and masculinity stylish without being overly macho. It is easy to read at a glance and has stopwatch capability.

I really loved my watch but the durability was not what I expected. It didn't last a year. I thought I could get it repaired but the repairs would cost more than the watch itself.
Reviewed Aug. 25, 2018
Bought the watch through an upscale store. I paid an enormous price and expected better quality for my money. The base of the watch rusted, yes, rusted even though it was considered waterproof. The band also rusted and I had to stop wearing it because it scratched my wrist so much. Never again!!

I have 2 Fossil watches, both bought at outlets. Prices are quite reasonable, even more so with frequent sales. Styles are always appealing, and sometimes unique. Staff is always friendly and helpful. My only complaint is battery life seems to be a bit short.

I bought the Fossil watch for my husband. It is not a watch you can wear every day as the band broke more than once due to pins falling out and the little knobs on side of watch broke off. Poor quality for a high price. Most disappointing.

We bought the watch for a gift for one of our kids. I liked it so much I bought him another one that he liked better and I kept the original one. I still have the watch and use it often. I need a new band for it. It wore out a while ago.

Fossil has excellent styles, and value for money... I own four Fossil watches. Try not to go into the store for fear. I’ll buy another. Really love them.

I bought a Fossil Watch in Aruba... It was expensive. Five years later, it stopped working. I called Fossil customer service... Gave them the model number. They replied that they don't make that model anymore. Hence, they can't and won't repair it. I figured that since they discontinued the model, they might offer me another watch... No such luck. An expensive lesson learned with FOSSIL watches!!! I now own an expensive MOVADO!!!

I have owned one of my Fossil watches over 5 years and have never had said problem. Not even the battery has stopped. It is sturdy. The style is great. I own 3 other Fossil watches.

I own several Fossil watches and have owned them for several years due to the quality. They have a nice selection to which they are constantly adding new designs each year or so and I think they are affordable.

Love the coral face of the gold link band of Fossil watch - very original and unique. Have never seen anyone with this same watch. Great with turquoise, tans and neutrals. I have many watches and this is my favorite by far. Very structurally made sturdy and can be adjusted to fit which is a great quality for all sizes of wrist. Fossil a good brand and coral a great color and just now needs a battery. I would recommend highly as could be a teenager to middle age to elderly stylish watch.

Beautiful, innovative designs. Pricing is appropriate - not too expensive, not cheap at all. I enjoy Fossil watches because they look great and function just as well.

Their watches are pretty durable, but I don't like how you have to have a special tool to change the batteries. Also, their prices are kind of high because the resale price is low.

Love the customer service, courteous, prompt and so friendly. The fixed my problem without hesitation although the warranty was expired. Love the brand and the look of my watch.

The minute and the hour hands came off the center piece. Had it only few months and it was just outside the warranty. Took it to a jeweler, but the repair would cost as much as the watch. So, I tossed it!

A heavier watch but it is made so nicely you don't even know you are wearing it. Perfect design for comfort. It also has a very sturdy band that I have not had to replace in the approximately 15 years I have had the watch.

Well my daughter in law got me a watch for Christmas one year but the watch kept stopping. I have replaced the battery at least three times. Pretty watch but been in the jewelry box more than I have wore it.

Low end quartz movements, but with many collectible aspects and varieties. Common watch for the common person. They're a fun watch, but not necessarily in the Breguet or Jager le Coutre category.

My Fossil watch was the best watch I’ve ever had, and I would still have it if it wasn’t stolen. I liked it more than the Invicta that I wear now. The Fossil was durable, good looking and kept perfect time.

Fashionable, sturdy, reliable and water resistant! Battery lasts a long time. I have the chrome which seems to go with a lot of my sports clothes. Priced right for the quality!

Nice watch, but the batteries are really bad. I had to replace the batteries in my 4 Fossil watches every 9 months. When I complained, they gave me one for free. Other than that, watches are fine. Fun, not fine watches. Don’t expect more.

We left for Africa for 2 years and it was suggested we leave nice jewelry home. Upon our return my Fossil watch had stopped working. The battery wasn't corroded and looked good. I had the battery changed and that didn't work. I had an authorized repairman check it and was told it would cost $200 to repair the watch which is more than it was worth. Yet it was still like new. I will not buy another Fossil watch.

I really loved my Fossil watch. I used it for work and just everyday wear. Apparently someone else really liked it too because they stole it. So it's a product worth stealing.

Great styles but pricey. I've owned several and only complaint is poor battery performance. I've only had one that mechanically failed but the staff at store was very helpful in getting it sent off and repaired at no cost to me.

Beautiful Watch received as gift but battery died within couple of months. Watch never worked and was unable to be repaired after battery replacement. Very unfortunate as I enjoyed while it worked.

These watches are very stylish. They last for a long time. Replace the batteries and you will have a quality watch with a great band at a price not an arm and leg.

I am a retired Emergency Room Nurse, and have worn my Fossil watches every day for years! I am such a big fan! They are durable and beautiful. On my 12 hour shifts, I used my watch all day long to count pulses, document times, along with all my other time related tasks. Fossil is just the best value for money. I will tell anyone how much I have used and loved my Fossil watch!

Bought through an outlet store and it never worked properly. Would never spend that type of money for a Fossil again. Timex is a much better value for what it delivers.

I like the designs, love the watches but prices going up too high. Also, too expensive to put in new battery. I just wish you could get a battery change at a place like Walmart.

Fossil Watches cannot be repaired therefore it makes quality horrible. It’s also a very pricey watch to buy. Although it works really well and it looks nice as a fashion accessory.
