Fossil Automatic Appraisal

Fossil Men's Multi-Function Automatic Watch

The item is a men's Fossil wristwatch, characterized by its prominent silver-tone stainless steel case and a matching silver-gray dial. The watch features a multi-function or chronograph design with three sub-dials. The main dial has a textured or brushed finish, and the sub-dials appear to have a concentric circular pattern. One notable feature is an open heart or exhibition window on the dial, revealing parts of the automatic movement's gears, typically associated with a tourbillon or balance wheel, at approximately the 7 o'clock position. The hour markers are a mix of applied silver-tone indices and cut-through, architectural elements that reveal parts of the watch's internal structure beneath the dial. The brand name 'FOSSIL' is clearly visible below the 12 o'clock position on the main dial. The watch has a crown on the right side of the case, and what appear to be two pushers, suggesting chronograph functionality, though one of the sub-dials also seems to be a skeletonized view of the movement. The band appears to be a dark brown, possibly leather, with a textured or crocodile-like pattern. There are no obvious signs of significant damage like deep scratches or cracks on the crystal or case from this perspective, but some minor surface wear consistent with regular use might be present. The overall aesthetic suggests a modern design, likely from the 2010s or later, blending classic watchmaking elements with contemporary styling. The presence of the open heart indicates it is likely an automatic mechanical movement, which is a quality indicator for watches.
