Pros: Excellent style, world time, light, just a very cool watch. Cons: Too-long strap, tricky function buttons.
I'm kind of a watch nerd. I've always loved to wear wristwatches, and I probably buy more of them than I strictly need. Fossil became my favorite brand when my then-girlfriend bought me one for Christmas in 1999. Since then, I've bought approximately a ...
Pros: Design, quality and stylish,
Blue light
Display is innovative
Did I mention the design? Cons: Cutting the strap (be careful),
Fiddly controls,
I really do think this is a very stylish unique watch that stands out from the crowd. However, there is a certain case here of design over functionality. The control for the watch is in the strap, which design-wise is a genius stroke as there are no ...
Brilliant Watch, But I had Quality Issues by ekasbury ,Jun 07 '07
Pros: Stellar design. Comfortable. Conversation starter. Great warranty. Cons: Less than reliable. Fussy to program.
I love this watch, don't get me wrong. It's definitely a case of form over function, but not too much so to the detriment of its usability.
However, after 7 months of owning it (and getting loads of comments and compliments), I've started noticing lines disappearing from the LCD screen making it harder and harder to read. Bummer. I called Fossil's warranty repair shop and they sounded surprised (so it could be that this isn't a common problem at all). The good news? 11 year warranty. I'll send it in and should probably get it back good as new.
All in all, a real top-notch design watch, but I wouldn't expect the tank-like reliability you'd find in a more standard mechanical piece.
Pros: Stylish and modern, so this is more important than anything I guess. Cons: Permanent band adjustment. Issues with LCD paint chipping off. Annoying and useless scrolling feature.
It's a great watch, nice and stylish. I've had the same problem with the LCD screen chipping and falling apart behind the glass after only a couple of months. It's definitely a manufacturing error, and I'm now concerned about how I'm going to get it repaired under warranty being outside the US.
