At the Auction...
Went to our local auction last night and picked this up for $65..thought it was a pretty good buy!!!
Fossil "Blue" SS Overall a very nice QUALITY watch wit Quartz dependability!!! Came with box and hang tags. Im very impressed by the way this watch is built and its good looks!!! All of the dials work flawlessly...stopwatch function is pretty cool...  The band is polished and brushed SS..had it over to the local jeweler today to have some links removed. I really need to buy one of those tools on Ebay.. The jeweler said the bracelet wasnt the greatest but wasnt that bad either, (Quality wise..).  Rear view...shows the Fossil Blue logo..I called fossil today and found out this model was manufactured on March 8, 2005...amazing.....  Clasp works very well....typical Rolex type safety clasp.  Side view...nothing on the buttons as you can see...  Overall after wearing all day I thought it was quite comfortable. It weighs about the same as my Omega SMP/GMT so this is a pretty heavy watch. The face is quite easy to read and not at all cluttered up with useless stuff that I dont even know what to do with. For a low budget quartz under $100 I think this is gonna be a watch that Ill definately wear often. I also like the fact that its water proof up to 300m which means I wont mind going swimming with it on, I cant really do that with the Reps. It also has a very impressive 3 year warrenty. Hellcat |

Thanks fellas..............I really didnt care if someone even said it was butt ugly and they hate Fossil watches, for that kind of money I couldnt pass it up!!
By the way........I went to that auction because they had a Rolex listed, when I got there and saw the damn thing it was actually ticking harder than this quartz Fossil does!!!!!! It sold for $10, what a POS!!!!!! |
