Any good, or just a pricey Fossil?

JD, I know only what I have read in watch forums and magazines. It is my understanding all of their watches are quartz movement. ( like 98%+ of all watches) They are assembled in Detroit with the major components coming from Ronda. I also think one of the major investors came from Fossil.

Sorry, wish I have more information for you. I know that GlennK was looking at one at one time. Perhaps he has more information.

W&A, you're correct re the major investor from fossil. I've owned one for a year and half and really like it for a weekend/casual work watch. Personally I think they are significantly nicer than Fossil. Short time frame, but no issues yet
