Fossil FS5851
Looks smart, not sure it…

I have previously purchased products from Fossil - wallets and sunglasses and always found them to be smart and well-suited to my style. As a result, I thought I would give the watch a go.
The product arrived relatively promptly and comes very well presented in the Fossil branded tin. (Useful for holding cufflinks and the like) On opening, the watch is nicely cushioned/supported and you have the handy guide accompanying it.
As is common with these type of watches, I had to take it into a jeweler to have the bracelet shortened but this was not too much trouble as we have one locally. Having worn a smart watch for the last couple of years, I was pleasantly surprised by how light it feels whilst also looking heavy. Great for wearing out to more formal events.
The instruction guide (whilst small / perhaps my eyes are not what they once were!) was very useful and I was able to set it up seamlessly. The functionality seems to work well and I have not had any issues with it thus far.
My partner and 4 year old son both think it looks smart - my 4 year old always asks me if he can wear it too, which he has done a few times and it seems robust enough to be put through that wear and tear.
The only reason I have not given the product a 5 at this stage is I think, given the saturated market, along with the desire to move toward "smarter" watches the price may be 15/20% over what it should be at full price. Nevertheless, I see it as a reasonable purchase and hopefully one that will last for years to come.
