The Fossil smartwatch is good looking and also available in different colours and straps. The smartwatch is slim and 1.28 AMOLED display is very much attractive. The 12mm thick and 44mm wide watch looks more attractive after wearing the smartwatch on the wrist.

The 12mm display is clear and can also be visible in direct sunlight with an automatic adjustment feature so that you can see the notification and time.
