I’ve Got a Good Feeling About This…

I think most of us would agree one of the best joys of this hobby is the giddiness felt for any watch - regardless of size, color, ethnicity & age. That said, I was tracking every mile of this little treasure from TX to CA - bated breath peaked when it sputtered in Dallas (Fossil HQ?) for 2 whole days!

Anyway, it just arrived and wow - how I love this $270 limited edition quartz wonder (on the bund no less!!) equally to watches in higher cost multiples.

Fossil knocked it out of the park with this earnest release via terrific packaging which includes cinematic sound effects (when opening the box case), comic book-style illustrations & replica metal movie ticket pin! And the watch wears comfy and feels quality.

Do share the watch(es) that transports you to an immediate place of euphoric color and calm only fellow addicts can relate!

….oh & since yours truly turns a year older today, I get to say these immortal words: “punch it, Chewie…” 🤙😂❤️🤙

I have to be honest, you had me at the white unopened box of anticipation! Nice score.

Haha thanks!! not gonna lie.. was a little concerned the “hashtag fossil” plus stark white box would not bring any traffic 😂 hmmm..also don’t know why the photos appear blurry on my end, even after multiple uploads. Anyway, so happy with the watch 🤙

That's no moon! It's a new watch! Wow, super cool. The watch case, dial graphics, Hans Solo image and packaging are all done really well. Nice strap too. Congrats! The Force is strong in this one.

Happy birthday, too!

Happy Birthday 🎂!!!

Ha! Awesome! - yes saw these a few days ago! I like the Luke (since I'm Fieldwalker) and the 3PO. Of course a little campy, but I happen to like Star Wars campyness. 😉

You will have the whole 12 parsec controversy figured out in no time now!👍

Hey Alan! This app is our safe zone to be as campy as we damn please haha… oh man, I came close to picking up both R2 & 3PO but had doubts on Fossil’s ability to deliver - therefore played it safe with the Solo. I gotta say, I’m super impressed by the quality and efforts Fossil put forth in the release - the packaging with the aforementioned little extras made some of my Casio LE’s and my Seiko “Matcha” LE appear on the lazy side. All said, I would totally pull the trigger on that Fieldwalker 😉

…and cmon we all know Han was referring to distance back in the Cantina!

Does the box talk to you every time it’s opened?! 😃

I’d be on the floor laughing every time it triggers 😂.

Sadly, my watch buying habit, for even small purchases, is super duper ‘on a break’ after the shark jump incident. https://www.watchcrunch.com/Fieldwalker/posts/jumped-the-shark-34969

And Yup. Using a black hole maw to speed up a Kestle run is of course genius 😉

Han says some shit when you open the box, i listened couple times and now box is forever stored 😝

That Horage tourbillon is a beauty, banger price to boot. Well done!

Nice! Is that the Han Shot First edition? 🤙

Thanks! I believe Fossil has done other SW releases in the past but not specific to a Han Solo themed watch and maybe not limited edition. Not 100% sure on this 🤙
