Fossil Analog Red Degrade Dial Watch

Links on watchband were easily removed to adjust for a smaller wrist.
Numerals take on different appearance when wrist is moved and when light is right, they appear to be lit up. It seems as if they sparkle.
Watch runs for a long time when not worn and having to reset time is infrequent
Very pleased with the product and would recommend purchasing it.

Good looking watch impressive size and weight. Second hand seems to freeze up at 41 seconds. When I receive something that does not work, I feel it has taken enough of my time and rarely return unless a big ticket item. Very dissapointed in the malfunctioning analog.

The watch looks amazing, I'll give it that. Unfortunately, after just a couple weeks of wearing it, I went to change the time and noticed the dial had come completely off. Even trying to set it with pliers didn't work, it's impossible to change the time if the dial comes off.

Yes I can completely agree with the comments. This timepiece is iconic with great past heritage and unique design. Fossil kept this going but the watch keeps poor time and the Fossil repair in Texas scratched the back side of the timepiece in two places, shipping my $1,300 watch in a padded small pouch. They failed to remedy the poor time keeping. Thus the watch is just a showpiece or fashion item , which appears to be what Fossil is about, fashion. I have several astrographic and the older ones keep better time.

This watch was pretty until the band became smudged and I am unable to clean it.  Any ideas on how to clean it???This dark spot ruins the look of the watch.

I was looking for a watch with both analog and digital outputs. I found this one that fit the bill. It wasn't very expensive so if it bit the dust at work I wouldn't mind too much. The only problem I found was the dial window. It's plastic. Soft plastic. Unfortunaly only a week after buying the watch I already had several scratches on the face that made it more difficult to see the face. If the dial window was more resilient I would be very happy with the watch and give it 4 or 5 stars but as it stands it gets a 2... barely.

The watch itself with the red sunray dial, stainless steel accents and black polyurethane strap is attractive enough but there are plenty of other Invicta S1 Racers to choose from. This model has the ISA 8172/220 with the quartz chronograph movement.

I ordered this model direct from Invicta during their Sunday Run sale. The watch I received had several defects. One, the hour hand was mounted ahead of the minute hand. As an example, at exactly 12 o'clock, the minute hand would be at the 12 but the hour hand was already past the 12. Two, there were scuffs on the stainless steel accents on the face of the case. And three, there was a large gap between the stainless steel and the polyurethane on the case. I shipped the watch back to Invicta for a refund.

In the meantime, I've called Invicta Customer Service twice and emailed them twice regarding my refund. Both times when I talked to a customer service rep, they gave me the impression that they did not know what they were doing. Both times, they told me they would call me back regarding my refund and both times they never called me back as promised. Also, I have not received a response from both emails I sent to their customer service.

I have read numerous online complaints about Invicta's customer service. Now that I've had to use their customer service for the first time, I can understand why there are so many complaints. Invicta makes nice watches but hopefully you'll never have to deal with their customer service department regarding repairs, refunds, etc. And if you do, hopefully you'll have better luck.

After digitals in the '70s and calculators in the '80s, I got a Casio tank-style resin case analog with a digital window for full chrono function. The backlight didn't light the digital window! I found an Acqua (made by Timex) that looked just like the Casio but had a crown for setting the analog time, and the digital lit up--on clearance at K-Mart, no instructions. That was about 12 years ago. I went through 4-5 bands; everything still works. Batteries every 6-12 months, four screws to open it, 2 more to swap the 2016. The Indiglo has dimmed so I can't read it in full dark except on a fresh battery. Nothing like it is for sale. The closest I've seen is a round, resin-case olive drab Timex with a pseudo-gyrene strap. Not me.

I just bought this T44642 to replace the Acqua. Round instead of square, metal instead of resin, leather instead of plastic, snap-on back, twice as heavy. The arc-shaped digital screen is slightly annoying, but has a rear reflection like a cat's eye that lets you read it without the Indiglo at certain low light levels. Button function is identical.

We'll see about durability. It is big and bright, for now. I'll worry about water after the first battery swap (the o-ring is the thing). If the strap gets to be too much I'll put on the last one from the Acqua--black webbing, quick-release, very cheap. After that, it'll be back to the dollar stores or Tar-zhay (I don't do Wally World). Can't afford $4 shipping for a $3 strap.

Does anybody have experience with getting multipacks of lithium batteries through eBay? Major brand, not counterfeit might be good, though at 1-2 per year that's a long shelf time. 'Fridge? Freezer?

The watch is quite heavy and on the larger side - which I like. The face is very attractive and looks like a much pricier watch. However, my biggest gripe is the red PLASTIC details. The knob and outer ring are both a very cheap looking plastic - making what would look like a very dressy watch look like a joke. If you're looking at it straight forward, it's beautiful. If you're looking at it from the side, however, it looks like something you picked up from a Walmart sale rack for $20. The watch seems to be working well. I would NEVER pay full price for this watch, as the red accents annoy me too much. For the deal price, it's worth keeping.

The band(s) are ugly.  I want to return it.  Can't set the date so it holds.  Went from 5/8 to 5/12 overnite.  Please tell me who to contact to return it.  The service was quick.  I like the face of the watch--just not the bands.  Sorry to give this report.

Overall it is a nice looking watch.  Got is as a gift and I am very in to watches.  At the end of the day it is a fashion watch.  It is a Fossil watch with the Armani logo stamped on it and that is what you are paying for.  You can buy a Fossil that looks exactly the same for half the price. The watch functions well. All of the buttons work and I do love the face. If you are looking for a higher quality watch for around the same price look into Citizen or Sekio.  Overall it was a nice gift and I do wear it a lot.

A nice looking and functional watch for the price. I was a little put off at first bc the watch face and band aren't the same color or finish. The face is polished bright red and the band is a darker matte red. The watch has grown on me and I cant complain to much when it was so cheap.

Nice watch and feels like good quality for the price.. I paid around $80 USD for mine from a Fossil outlet store.  Problem is the watch can not keep an accurate time!  I returned my first one because it was about 2 minutes fast per day.  This replacement that they gave me is about 2 minutes fast every 2 or 3 days.  Another annoying issue is that when manually setting the time (which as I said... I have to do very frequently), there is no way to set the second hand - only the minute and the hour hands adjust.  The second 'clock' just keeps going even while manually adjusting the hour/minute hands.

So all in all.. its a nice watch.. just no good at basic watch functions.

I had high hopes for this watch but, like I thought...  The color is somewhere between red and BRIGHT ORANGE.  It came with a bright orange rubber bracelet and I don't like rubber so I replaced it with a metal band.  That improved the look of it substantially.  I took a chance on it.  I wish it would've been a little more red.  The worst part about it is that out of 16 automatic watches I own this is the only one that doesn't come close to keeping time.  It runs about a minute fast a day and for me that is unacceptable.

I like the watch and hope it will be a good watch. But, for the 100 dollar price the watch band is very noises and seems more like a cheaper band you find on a 20 dollar watch. I would expect Relic to have better quality, having Fossil as the parent Company. Unless this is a counterfeit Relic, which is possible with Amazon being plauged with cheaper countifeit goods. I think my 3 star rating is fair for now.

I own 3 Fossil Breakers. Yellow, Blue & White dials. They are pretty solid watches. I only use the Yellow version as my boat beater watch. Nice screw down crown & have had no issues with water. I snorkel & swim every weekend so it's be run through it's paces. You can find better prices for the Breaker then here (Jomashop)

Downside? Mineral crystal is ok. It will scratch if you're not careful. If you can find them for appx. $80.00 & under, then it's a good deal. If not, you're better off with a Seiko or Citizen divers for around $150.00

I bought this watch for my son. Unfortunately the leather separated at the clasp thus dislodging it. No problem, I'll just go to the Fossil website and order a replacement band ... but they don't sell the replacement band for this particular watch. Of note is that the metal clasp on the band is a copper color which is rather unique but matches the watch. Thus if you are looking for a replacement band, you will be stuck with a metal clasp that does NOT match the color of the watch. Of note is that I emailed Fossil and they sent me a generic email recommending other bands that didn't match. Very lame and disappointing.
