Review
I’ve had this watch for over two years and wear it daily. Biking, working, going out. It works for all occasions. I have received many, many compliments on the watch. I’ve changed the battery once and replaced the band once in two years time. The steel has a few noticeable scratches, but the face still looks brand new.
All and all it is a very good watch does what it is supposed to do well and it’s biggest feature is that it looks good.
There are a few annoyances I’ve had that may be important to note.
First, this watch is not very easy to see in daylight or artificial light. I would say I have to use the built in light about 80% of the time I look at the watch. the light is great and very bright but using it so much drains the battery. this is a problem because you have to take it to a jeweler to be replaced and it took them an hour to do it. not to mention you need two hands every time you look at the watch…
second, the band broke after a year and starts to stink after a few months of use while being active, running, biking etc… if you sweat the band holds the smell. the only fix is to replace the band. it’s only to buy a new band, but it’s a hassle to get the band, you have to email diesel and then they direct you to their department (at fossil) and they ship you a new band. which then leads to another trip to the jeweler to replace the band plus more $ to have the work done.
I gave it 4 stars cause it does look good, but this is more of a casual watch, not something you’d want to wear everyday if you are active. also the “tips” function is silly and useless, a novelty that wears off quick and adds to the battery depletion.
