Big Brown Fossil



I love this Watch. I have had it for about two years. I love it so much in fact when the Crown pulled out and the plating started coming off of the watch, I sent it off to Fossil to be repaired as opposed to tossing it. I have a habit of allowing my Fossils to be disposable watches. This Fossil at the time was largest watch I had ever owned at 52 millimeters. I always said it was my training wheel watch for a Invicta Russian Divers. And I love it still to this day.




It has large brown dial features three sub-dials, combining functionality and modern style. It is a light stainless steel ion-plated case and has a nice contour bracelet that allows for it to fit my wrist very comfortably. About 6 months ago I noticed the the Brown Ionic Plating was rubbing of but I figured I could deal with that. Then the stem of the watch came out and it was back to Fossil. And thanks to the 11 year warranty and 15 dollars I sent, they repaired the watch and put a brand new bracelet on. Not too bad of a deal. Too bad after getting it back the chronograph does not work but, I never used it on this watch anyway. I would have to say all in all, that this is my favorite Fossil.
