Best Fossil Watches For Men in 2022

The classic, unconquered style that Fossil did true justice to the classic chronograph watch. Featuring a brown leather strap and a sturdy, thick bezel on this stainless steel case, they did true justice to the triple guarded crown look. The Grant features two subdials outlined in a bright yellow, with sword-style hands and the traditional Roman numeral markings. As with most Fossil watches, you’ve got the full power of a solid quartz movement with the dependability of an analog display, all guarded by a mineral glass dial window. Built to last, designed to up your flair, the Grant is our personal favorite, and one of Fossil’s best-selling watches.

Smoke and Blue Chronograph is a total one-eighty on the first style. Fossil proves they’re able to make a durable steel watch that resembles the carefree aesthetics of a quality sports watch. Minimalist markings and three subdials blend with the white-tipped sword-style hands, all framed gorgeously by the textured stainless steel bezel. Your 45mm case extends to the steel bracelet, which comes with slight rust resistance to accompany the 165 feet of water resistance. Quartz movement, analog display, single prominent crown, and a whole lot of flair without busting the wallet wide open.

We did a post about all-black watches, and you better believe Fossil watches made the cut. We only wish the Nate was out during that time. They packed a lot to love in a minimalist package. First and foremost, you get a triple subdial design with a chronograph feature, showcasing three sharp-featured crowns for an added dimension to your look. The band is crafted of ultra-soft calfskin leather, while the same great quartz movement that Fossil uses in all of their watches rests behind the mineral glass dial window. You’re a gent who loves watches but appreciates more subtle style. We just played matchmaker.

Playing on the Grant that peaked our list, the Grant FS comes with a low-profile, classic design. Roman numerals, triple chronograph subdials, and a conservative stance on the crown design all tie together to create a true gentleman’s watch. From the 44mm stainless steel case and broad bezel, right on down to the padded brown leather band, everything about this watch is safe, professional and compliments most men’s styles. Fossil most commonly uses 165 ft of water resistance on every watch, and the FS is no different. Quartz movement, analog display, and a tough-as-nails mineral glass dial window tie together beautifully, supporting the milk-white watch back.

Similar to their standard Nate collection, the Blacktone comes with a stainless steel bracelet instead of a leather band. Peer through the mineral glass dial window into the all-black watch face, at the two-tone sword-style hands, the triple subdials, and tell us you haven’t fallen in love. The bezel’s gear-inspired design adds a rugged element, while the specs under the hood all run with Fossil’s standards: quartz movement, analog display, and 165 ft of water resistance. Whether you’re looking for something casual, something to dress up an outfit, or something that’s going to stand up against the test of time, this classy waterproof watch will fit the bill.

We know their Grant lineup is stupendous, but this is something else entirely. Dip yourself in gold with the stainless steel, Grant navy rose gold watch. This 44mm case looks important on your wrist, thanks to the coloration, subdials and gold Roman numeral markings. The Grant series comes with a padded, super soft calfskin leather watch strap, and with the non-abrasive blue dye added, Grant Chronograph Navy looks fantastic against the midnight case back. As you might have guessed, you get 165 feet of water resistance, a quartz movement, analog display, and an entirely new way to look cavalier the second you leave the house.

Man, they sure do like chronographs, don’t they? The great thing about Fossil is that they always find a way to take a fresh twist on an old favorite. The Machine comes with a silicone triple link bracelet to offer mobility and as much comfort as possible, while the case is made of black-plated stainless steel. The entire look blends together seamlessly, especially when you take a look at the blue accents in the triple chronograph subdial feature, highlighted by the diamond-white hands and minimalist markings. It might be a bit outside your comfort zone, but nobody pulls off a silicone bracelet band quite as Fossil does.

All-black watches are the basic need that every gentleman needs in his wardrobe. White tie affair? Black tie event? Just kicking it on Sunday? Boom: black watch. The Machine IP model comes with a slightly rectangular case, built to add some posh flair to your ensemble. Minimalist white markings and white-tipped watch hands keep it simple, while the black-plated case and steel bracelet keep you looking polished and refined like the dapper lad that you are. Fitted with a powerful quartz movement and an analog display, you’ll have this safe pick in your walk-in for when the moment strikes, or as an everyday accessory.

This one might possibly be this writer’s favorite from this list. Fossil takes a fairly conservative approach to many of their watches: safe styles, classic and clean, but they went a little outside of the box with the Sport Cuff. The all-leather band feels like a cushion on your wrist, supporting the lightweight stainless steel case. Your mineral crystal dial window protects the analog display and quartz movement beneath, powering the triple subdial chronograph function. Everywhere you look, there’s something going on with this watch, and they still found a way to keep its aesthetics minimalistic with simple markings and a slimming bezel.

The steel bolts in the watch strap are the defining stylistic factor in their Sport Cuff CH, along with the broken-up, slimming bezel design. The sky blue watch face pops with the midnight accents and markings, making this style clear-cut and sharp. The watch strap, made of genuine leather, fits perfectly into the anchors of the stainless steel bezel, giving you a tight fit with enough room to flex and roll your wrists. You know the drill by now: quartz movement, analog display, and a mineral crystal dial window to protect every bit of beautiful machinery that’ll soon be sitting on your wrist.

I don’t know why, but I suddenly want to watch a James Bond movie. This gives me that classic 1960s vibe, the type of watch that belongs on the wrist of stylish, powerful men. Fossil’s Grant Sport watch comes with a deceptively dark blue-and-black watch strap, melting into the affixed bezel and watch back. Delicate golden Roman numerals dot the edges, while the triple subdial fits perfectly into the remaining space. Sword style hands run on the quartz movement and analog display, showing some of the most renown clock making skills in the world at work. Seriously, I could stare at this watch all day.

These mechanics buried deep in the automatic self-winding movement show up in glorious display right through the case back. This Self-Wound Stainless Steel Watch showcases brilliant Roman numeral markings, encased by a polished stainless steel case and stationary bezel. You’ll be mesmerized by Fossil’s craftsmanship and engineering at work, all while feeling the softness of the padded calfskin leather watch strap wrapped around your wrist. Guarded crown, mineral crystal dial window, and a ton of flair. Skeleton watches usually run you a pretty penny, but Fossil found a way to make it work without cracking open that piggy bank.

Am I the only one getting giddy over these? This is the outgoing attitude that Fossil needs to adopt more often because the Decker is as dapper as they come. From the thin markings to the cleaver-style watch hands, the frame of the bottom subdial, and the way the bezel markings play into the style, this is a truly masterful design. You also get an improved 330 ft of water resistance, a bump up from the Fossil norm. From the silicone band to the buckle closure, every aspect of this watch is spot-on. You’ll also get a date window to the chronograph function, the quartz movement to the analog display, this fine-tuned piece of clockwork will keep you ticking for years to come. It also makes an ideal stylish gift every man will love

Look, if you can’t roll with Rollex, then the least you can do is look just as fly with Fossil by your side. Their Goldtone watch brings a lot of zeal to the party and including a complimenting champagne foam-colored case back to bring out the rich gold tones. The 45mm stainless steel case of this gold watch is delicately plated to give off a regal appearance. Your quartz movement is protected by the might of the mineral crystal dial window, resting above the prominent markings and immersive triple subdial chronograph feature. Do you want to look like the highest roller in the room? We thought so. You don’t have to spend big to look big.

Next up is The Q Commuter, a bit of a rustic take on the same great engineering behind Fossil’s legacy. This 42mm stainless steel case looks like it’s resting on a black iron rectangle, extending to grasp the brown leather calfskin band and wrap all the way around. If the comfort of the band isn’t enough for you, the milk chocolate-colored case back will grasp you and pull you under, highlighted by the caramel-colored minimalist markings and singular subdial. Three prominent crowns, chronograph feature, mineral crystal subdial, and while this minimalist watch is a touch higher than Fossil’s standard price range, you’re going to thank yourself.

Rocking the same style as their sports watch, but with an added twist. Rose gold accents surround the subdials and make up the seconds hand, while the minimalist markings compliment the simple design and broad minute/hour hands. The signature look of their sports watches are the steel bolts in the thick leather calfskin watch band, and the way the black top and bottom of the bezel help to add visual length to this watch. Coachman is another spectacular Fossil watch, but this time, it’s packing up to 330 ft of water resistance, as well as a scratch-resistant mineral crystal dial window for added protection. It’s sleek, it’s steel, and it’s all you. Our guide to the best Garmin watches features more great products like this.

This might be one of the most outrageous designs they’ve ever tried, and we love them for it. Skeleton windows, one single, simple crown, and a brushed black stainless steel case that looks dapper as can be. Between the gold-colored markings, the skewed design of the watch face and the subdials, and the thin bezel protected by a scratch-resistant mineral crystal dial window, Flynn Mechanical just hits the nail on the head. The band is crafted of PVD, which handles water better than stainless steel. You’ll need it because this bad boy can go up to 165 ft underwater, and still emerge with a perfectly-functioning automatic movement. Get your watch winders ready, boys, because this one’s a beaut.

We went from conservative style to this funky little number, fitted with Fossil’s same great attention to detail, and double the flair. JR Nate is built to look like a dive watch, features 330 ft of water resistance, but also looks dapper in a casual setting. You get a triple subdial, chronograph function, and a rough stainless steel bezel on your 50mm case to tie together a choice look. Slip the soft calfskin leather band around your wrist, feel how lightweight it is, and go about your day. You’ve just upgraded your wardrobe, my friend.

They know what speaks to us, I have to say. The Minimalist Two-Handed Watch isn’t just minimalist in appearance, they even made this as one of their most lightweight watches ever, sporting a whopping 2.08 ounces (it feels like a feather on your wrist). That lightweight feel is capitalized on by the soft, plush calfskin leather watch strap. One subdial, one simple crown, two low-profile hands, and one fantastic look for you to rock. You still get their standard water resistance, a quality quartz movement, and a protective mineral crystal dial window: all the features are there, they’ve just expertly covered them in this glorious minimalist design.

For the final, we wanted to show you how Fossil is making a change into the digital era. Explorist HR is compatible with both Android and iOS, they’ve created a smartwatch that isn’t going to break your budget. They somehow snuck 99 ft of water resistance into this, which is pretty astounding when you think about what your phone can’t do. They still include all the quality construction they aim for, such as a stainless steel case and genuine leather strap, with the power of smart technology at the helm. Receive Facebook notifications, text messages, GPS tracking, and heart rate monitoring, just to name a few of the features. They played it safe and waited until this concept had the bugs worked out and did a bang-up job at producing a viable smartwatch.
