The Fossil brand is known for selling fashionable timepieces at its own stores in malls as well as department chains like Macy’s and Nordstrom. These watches sell for around $100 to $500, making them a popular favorite.

The Fossil Atari Asteroids Watch
John over at The Wrist Watch Review got his hands on one of the new Fossil Atari Asteroids watches. These things look like a lot of fun, especially if you used to be an Atari 2600 junkie, like myself. The watch isn't playable, unfortunately, but it is animated, which means...

Fossil Announces New Star Wars Watch

Fossil Wrist PDA Redux
Hopefully Fossil is serious this time about their new Wrist PDA: a full Palm OS (4.1) built right into a watch. Actually, I'm sure they were quite serious the first time they announced the Wrist PDA and took "Best of COMDEX" in the mobile devices category nearly two years, though...
