Men's Watch

The hour and minute hands are clear. And have little white tips. So it can be hard to read. Doesn’t glow in the dark. So if it’s dark you will not be able to read the time without a light. Is water proof but don’t take a bath in it or a very long shower. It’s an awesome watch that keeps on going. And it’s an attention getter and a beautiful time piece to wear. It’s automatic so with the movement of the wrist it will keep it ticking for years to come. Fossil makes truly quality products that can stand the test of time. But with the Relic Damon Automatic. You’re going to have to care for it. Take it off when showering. Wind it about 3 rotations to 15 a day. And treat it like it’s a Rolex and it will last you for a very long time. There is no battery. So you will never have to worry about your time piece going dead on you. If you can get past you can’t read it in the dark. And it will take a little learning curve to learn how to read it. It’s a beautiful design and a wonderful time peace with a beautiful mechanical display front and back. This watch will serve its purpose and you will look good wearing it for years to come.

$100 watch that looks and functions like a $1000 watch. The dials blend in a little too well so it takes a little more than an instant glance to read the time. The watch is also encased in glass rather than crystal. I'm not complaining about these imperfections in the least just pointing out the things I don't like about this watch because it's a shorter list than what I do like. This is an absolutely stellar watch and I would consider is the best value per dollar I have ever spent on a watch.

Nice item, fast delivery.

I believe what they listed was lug to lug distance which is indeed 50 mm. The watch is very interesting and is very beautiful (and artistic). It’s certain to attract attention. I just received it yesterday, so haven’t had the time to experience other’s opinions in regard to this watch. So far, it’s kept time rather accurately. I don’t expect it to be perfect as the accuracy of mechanical watches are not (typically) that of quartz movements. The hands (hour and minute) are very difficult to see. This has to be a design flaw because this renders the watch as not useful in situations where you need to see the time- you can always just use your phone, I assume (as I tend to do often). Of note, the second hand is quite visible and the minute hand is next (with respect to visibility), while the hour hand is least visible. My title (above) mentions the size of the watch. I was rather hoping for a 50 mm Case Size. Also, the watch is very thick. Ideally, a thinner and bigger version with hands that stand out (visibly) would have been perfect for me. I’m keeping this watch because I do like it - it’s growing on me fast. This is my first mechanical watch. While I realize it’s not a very high end watch, it appears well built (enough); and, is certainly so eye catching that my fascination with the watch movement has been stimulated. I am though considering substituting the leather (brown) band with a heavy (probably gold tone) metal bracelet one- I think that will give it a more all around thick appearance, balancing the thickness of the case with the band better. We will see… See my video and photos.

Very nice for the price

This watch is beautiful, it’s the first automatic watch I’ve owned and it comes at a very competitive price point. The automatic movement doesn’t necessarily hold its “charge” for a long time, if I leave it sitting for more than a day it stops ticking but that’s not a big deal. I will say that the watch looks darker in person, compared to its pictures. It looks like a lighter shade of grey in pictures but when I got it, it seemed a little more black/ dark gunmetal. Still a beautiful time piece.

I own several nice men's Fossil brand watches (Relics parent company) and have been happy with all of them. I'm going to start with the problems, because if a watch doesn't function, then its purely jewelry. First, the biggest problem is apparently a design flaw that allow moisture to enter the watch. I suspect moisture is entering through the "stem". Once inside, this will cause a fogging effect under the watch face that comes and goes . I have not submerged this watch at all, I have washed my hands with the watch on without running water directly on the watch. This is the second Relic watch of this style that has done this condensation, the other being a silver banded version of same watch. My wife had to return that one to a local department store. I thought I would give this one another try since I liked the watch concept and looks. The complete deal breaker is now the watch will not keep time. It will stop after a fews hours even after manually winding the spring. I did notice the band on the version "squeaks" after a few days of wear. I put a little oil in between the links and it went away. All in all, the watch had such promise but it falls short in functionality. I think those of us who like the automatic concept would at least want a working watch.

Watch is nice enough. Yes it needs to be wound regularly if you don’t wear it on a daily basis. However, the watch I received loses approximately 5 minutes a day and I will need to take it for tuning. Overall I enjoy it as a statement piece, I do wish the band was a little longer since I have relatively thick wrists.

Los colores son muy llamativos se ve de muy buena calidad y se mantiene a tiempo durante un par de días sin uso. El extensible es de piel y los detalles en dorado de la carcasa y la maquinaria le dan un toque muy especial. Me gustó mucho y la relación calidad/precio para mi es bastante alta.

Muy buen reloj. La correa no es lo mejor, pero la calidad del reloj está fuera de duda. Es prácticamente un Fossil. El reloj ha seguido funcionando 18 horas después de usarlo.

Good one

Muy bonito me agrado bastante

The watch is beautiful, but has it's drawbacks. It's a fingerprint magnet and the strap makes lots of noise (maybe with time it'll stop). The movement is really smooth and precise.
