Is Fossil Ready For An $895 Swiss Automatic Watch?

A few years ago, I used to joke that you'd never see an article about Fossil on aBlogtoWatch. So, this is actually the very first one. Yeah, I know that sounds snobby, but what exactly was I going to write? "Here is an $80 watch that is a cheap recreation of something else you really ought to buy. But with Fossil, you have the convenience of Macy's." As a business, Fossil is a fantastic money-making machine. Proudly American, the Texas-based company is actually in the business of retail product placement before they are in the market of making watches. That is at least from the perspec

Victorinox Swiss Army Alpnach Black Ice Chronograph Watch

This is the newest watch from Victorinox Swiss Army, but I am not sure I recognize it as a Swiss Army watch. Over the last few years Swiss Army watches have been changing a lot.

Movado Master Collection Watches: Readable Museum Watch Face!

The iconic Movado Museum watch finally gets a design overhaul that actually makes it a good watch. Movado can call it what they want, but this new watch is a pure evolution on the design that put Movado on the map for mainstream watch buyers. The Museum Watch face design that Movado purchased was a brilliant move that made for a great looking watch. Only problem was that barely anyone could read the thing. Over time the cases the showcased the watch kept changing, in the end it was still hard as hell to read watch. The new Movado Master Collection does not exactly advertise this fact,
