LUMINISCENCE Hands only... no numbers or markers are luminous.  Poor material used

BEZEL TYPE Fixed

CROWN Pull / Push  - horribly difficult crown to use.  

Never seen such a bad crown on ANY Fossil watch before.

Overall Features

WATER RESISTANCE: 50 meters / 165 feet  not tested.  

Front and back crystal/glass appears to be well made and water tight.  

Other than control issues, lock issues, the Crown does not look to be well done for 

water resistance either.

FUNCTIONS: Hour, Minute, and Seconds hand

Price purchased: $115  

Recommend: No.  

Nice looking watch, but better watches can be purchased for this price point.
