My first smart watch, after reading hundreds of reviews, i narrowed it to 3 - fossil gen 6, diesel, and citizen, i settled on fossil gen 6 when it went on sale, after figuring out everything about it, which took a week or so, i love it. I have to charge it once a day maybe twice, the 1st time is while I'm asleep then maybe during the day at work with my battery pack, but it's cause i text with it and change my music and use Google pay, etc ALL day long. Yeah it could last longer but given the use i get from it as small as that battery is, it's acceptable. Yes i bought the 42mm 'womans' watch, vs the 44mm mens, cant tell the difference, did because i have always liked the 2 tones, couldnt get that with mens in gen 6. I am ordering some screen protectors, but i work with my hands on cars and construction and in a busy kitchen and it's still in new condition, and it's definitely water proof. I love it, my fiancee loves it and I'm planning on buying her one as well.

I haven't owned EVERY Fossil smartwatch gen, but almost, I think this is my 4th. I continue to repurchase, because the upgrades are worth it. It's a pretty watch, I get lots of compliments on it, and it works nicely too. I did lose 1 gemstone from around the face, which hasn't happened with previous generations (I always get the blingy one, lol), it's not super noticable though. I am not at all careful with my watch and it holds up well.

Watch I purchased this as a replacement for my 3 yr old Samsung smartwatch, and I love it. I love that it has the look of a boyfriend sized fossil watch, but with all the electronic components and gadgets. It was easy to set up, charges quickly and lasts a good amount of hours (if I had to guess, I could probably go a day and 1/2 without charging, but that is with minimal use throughout the day). It is well made, and I love the metal watch band that comes with it. The swopping out of bands is a little harder than I would have liked (I don't have petite hands) and even with nails... it takes longer than I would like but when I want to dress up a little... that metal band makes it easy. It's pretty durable as well; I caught the very edge of it 3 times on the first day but luckily I had already placed a screen protector on it because the glass protector took all of the damage without leaving a scratch or ding on the edge of the watch face. The main reason I purchased this and not a Samsung again was the blood oxygen sensor. LOVE THIS WATCH.

Easy to use. Band is really hard to adjust… ended up buying a new band

Wish I could have my kids as my background like before. This gen is 18mm prior was 22mm so watch straps I bought from fossil don't transfer. Having bought the last 2 generations before this, I expected more.
