Fossil Watches


I've never seen the appeal of watches.  I had one once... suppose it's still kicking around someplace, but the battery must've died, because I could always hear the bloody thing ticking tic, tic, tic from three rooms away.  Drove me... erm... Right, right - Fossil's limited edition TSW watch thingies.  Sorry.

There are two of them - the Phantom watch and the Deep Eyes watch.  There were, if I understand, 1000 of each made.  They are numbered with certificates of authenticity and all that.  They each come with a little case thing - for the Phantom watches it's one of those pod-missiles; and for the Deep Eyes watches it's a Deep Eyes helmet.

What I know of these is very little - I've never seen one in person, so I must go by hearsay and picture-viewing.  The Deep Eyes watch has a gimmick, this much I know (there's a little infared-or-somesuch mimicking thing on the face).  I am uncertain if the Phantom watch has a gimmick, but the design looks pretty cool, which could make up for it if it doesn't.

I can only presume that, originally, they may have been sold by Fossil directly.  This is not a known, however, and I've only ever seen them on eBay.
