Fossil Watch ES5496 HARLOW

Fossil Harlow ES5496: gold-tone links laced with black leather

Since 1984 Fossil has built its identity on American vintage design, digging into its own archives to bring back forgotten shapes. The Harlow collection is the clearest expression of that idea: a watch that behaves like a piece of jewellery, with a small faceted case and a bracelet built to be looked at.

The ES5496 carries an octagonal tonneau case in gold-tone stainless steel, framing a black dial with a fine textured centre. Only four Roman numerals appear, XII, III, VI and IX, drawn in gold and spaced to leave the dial calm. Slim gold hands sweep over the pattern and a small fluted crown sits at three o'clock.

The strap is where the design turns bold: black leather threaded through wide gold-tone links, creating an alternating rhythm of soft grain and polished metal.
