Fossil Readies Its 'Star Wars' Watch Collections for May 4
Inspired by some of your favorite Rebels.
In celebrating the 40th anniversary of Return of the Jedi, Fossil has announced its Star Wars collection comprising six limited-edition timepieces and five special-edition watches. Each model is designed to honor the franchise’s most-beloved Rebels, all individually numbered and packaged in collector’s boxes.
Priced between £269 – £379 GBP (approximately $337 – $475 USD), the six limited-editions include Luke Skywalker, Leia Organa, Han Solo, Chewie, R2-D2, and C-3PO. Arriving in full-on gold tone, the C-3PO timepiece brings the fan-favorite robot to life with a square-shaped case and exposed automatic movement. R2-D2’s essence is fully translated onto the dial of its watch, complete with a day/night indicator, and its repair tool arm as the minute hand. The Leia Organa reference draws reference from her iconic Endor look, and the Han Solo timepiece takes on a more laidback mood with simple stripes and leather addie strap, while the Chewbacca-inspired version nods to his signature bandolier, and Han Solo’s The dial is divided into black and white for the Luke Skywalker timepiece, while fluorescent green details are incorporated as a nod to his iconic Lightsaber. The caseback of each variation features full-color etchings of the piece’s corresponding character.
Moreover, the five-piece special edition collection is fitted with rubber straps, fitted with comic book-style graphics on the dial starring R2-D2, Boba Fett, Darth Vader, Stormtrooper, and a Star Wars logo design. All are priced at £159 GBP (approximately $199 USD). In addition, A collaborative jewelry collection has also been announced.
The collection releases on Star Wars Day (May 4th) and will be available for purchase via the brand’s website and its retail stores.
