Fossil Decker CH2885 Unboxing and Full Walkthrough

[@Pizzscn]

Hello everyone! Skip to 4:16 if you don't care about the story I mentioned at the start of the video.

[@NattielChild]

Repairs through Fossil should have only cost $45, for as many non-warranty issues as you need fixed. And Fossil is a watch manufacturing company first, then a leather goods ;) They have been making watches since '84, leathers since early 90's.

[@TheSamosaCritic]

I got mine from Amazon a couple days ago on a metal bracelet (cruelty free). It's coming on Friday. Will be a nice addition to my collection. Fingers crossed.

[@gabrielkneip1625]

Amazing video! I'm from Brazil and I just bought a watch like this but i didn't know the functions. Thank You very much

[@blueman5924]

Good review. Just picked up a pre owned Decker, and had no idea how to use the chrono. Could not get it reverse as you did though. Practice I suppose. Some comments dissed this brand, but my son had moisture under the crystal of his, and Fossil paid for all shipping and repair/new crystal. 👍

[@garryevens4629]

I never would have figured out how to set the chronograph. Very helpful.

[@Pizzscn]

Awesome! I'm glad you found this video helpful! It took me a little while to figure it out myself when I got my first chronograph a few years ago

[@LesterGomes]

Finally right video! i have the same watch as but with silver bracelet; I didn't no how 2 use the chronograph but now I helped me thanks

[@Pizzscn]

Yay! That was my goal! Thanks for watching!

[@LesterGomes]

Owen Dowell Soz for my bad English but I subbed u :)

[@dudzwenceslao190]

Very nice review. you should be a spokesperson for fossil or something, hehe. It makes me wanna buy that watch for myself. thumbs up man!

[@Pizzscn]

+dudz wenceslao I would LOVE to do that! Maybe one day :)

[@CapTheBottle]

Fossil also has a Refurbishment program for basically all their watches. For $45 flat including shipping and handling you can get every part on your watch replaced with a new watch essentially you get a brand new watch for $45.

[@j.knight5214]

Awesome video! I got this watch for Christmas and I love it so much. Continue the good work?

[@j.knight5214]

*continue the good work!

[@Pizzscn]

+iJulian It's working great nearly a year later! The crown feels kinda gritty and that's from wearing it in the shower. My other Decker seemed to be more water resistant around the crown. So waterproofing isn't consistent it would seem.

[@Javysayajin]

I have almost the same model you have in blue, only mine is with metal extensible. Very nice watches, that even buy one black with the white numbers and another black with the numbers in orange. Of course I bought them there for 2011 or 2012.

"Fossil is known for making handbags for ladies, but they also make some nice watches." Umm, no?... They're known for making watches, but they also make some handbags? Maybe? But who cares about ladies' handbags? "Fossil was founded in 1984 as Overseas Products International by Tom Kartsotis, a former Texas A&M University student living in Dallas from a suggestion by his older brother, Kosta Kartsotis, a merchandising executive at Sanger-Harris. Kosta told his younger brother about the potential large profits that could be made in importing retail goods made in the Far East, specifically in importing moderately-priced fashion watches.[1] Their main product was fashion watches with a retro look. In 1990, they introduced leather goods under the Fossil brand, and the Relic line of watches."

[@mosaicresourcegroupllc1375]

Thanks so much! I just bought my women's Fossil boyfriend watch and the online instructions are whack! This was super helpful. And I love my watch! Oh snap! I had no idea my watch glowed in the dark. The details about the watch online when I bought it did not say that. Wish you could have included details on how to set the date.

[@spotlessreviews7425]

I have the exact same watch but without the logo for 19.97 dollars from walmart😂

[@caayotee]

Got the CH2885 today. Just love it!! :-D This is my second decker after CH2600. Somehow I tend to like this one more than the metal bracelet of CH2600. :)

[@BotondIstvan]

Hey there, great video, just wanted to ask that: did you manage to set the date to "know" when we have like 31 days in a month or 30 ? I just bought this watch and not sure how that works :)

[@Pizzscn]

This watch doesn't do that. You have to set that manually. It's not that big of a deal. Don't set the date too close to midnight. I usually wait until 12PM the following day so as to not damage the date mechanism.

[@BotondIstvan]

+Pizzscn Oh okay would have been pretty cool if it would work out of the box but not a deal-breaker. Thanks for the tip!

[@pj3474]

What's the year in which this model was released? I am thinking to purchase this watch in 2018. So I want to know whether it's a very old model or should I go ahead and purchase it anyway? Please reply! :)

[@Miguelito63No1]

man send the old watch to fossil, they have 11 years warranty, you only going to pay $8.50 for mail back to you, they fix my FS 4109 I only pay $8.50, watch maker charge you a lot, namaste

[@chileshemutale9299]

Hello. Sorry I'm late on this post. But I wanna ask. Is the serial number part of those numbers I'm seeing on the back case?

[@roybrolsbeak]

is this a heavy watch on the wrist

[@TwitchInit1]

I am confused in BQ2125 OR I go with this one reply anyone please

[@DenMcNuggetz]

I already have 2 Q's are there going to be anymore iMac videos and how do you record with your iPhone like how to you have it setup

[@Pizzscn]

DenMcNuggetz I do iMac videos as I need to, and I use this to mount my phone to a tripod: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00OS9E6AO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

[@zakirhussain-qu3mw]

How tachymeter work, pls explain?

[@sawyerwestbrook8641]

Awesome video man :)

[@Pizzscn]

sawyer westbrook Thanks!

[@anonimner248]

do they beep hourly? i found that in one of their descriptions...

[@Pizzscn]

ano nimner The Decker watches do not beep hourly.

[@gerardotrejo7890]

Nice watch, it looks like an Omega Speedmaster, the model astronauts use.

[@komruz]

Just ordered this watch today for £23.63 from Fossil UK

[@lourdesstone8204]

I bought A fossil in November 2015 and now my watch died on me. When I purchase it they told me there's a guarantee 11 years. I went the store and replace battery. But when I come home it died on me again it was not really working at all. Since I left the time in the store. How can I send this to repair? Or where can I send it to repaired?

[@TheSamosaCritic]

How's the watch now?

[@Ranknvlogs]

Bro, i bought this watch today. its awesome. could you please explain how to use tachometer. thank you in advance.

[@zahaby]

very nice commenting :)

[@Pizzscn]

+Mohamed El-Zahaby Thank you :D

[@odessacee5664]

Sir, very interesting. Nice watch...nice story...bad nails though. If you're going to have your hands close to the camera, may I suggest a manicure? Seriously, nice looking hands and nails will increase viewership.

[@Pizzscn]

+Odessa Cee I'm sorry I'm not a hand model.

[@TheAshishsawant]

Can you tell wts the dial size of this watch?? And also damaged watch???

[@oldiesfreek]

Whoa, who else owns this watch and is watching this at 8:29 pm on the 6th of the month? :D What a coincidence!

[@demisux]

Does the shipping box say fossil on it before you open the package?

[@jackblaack6478]

I have a fossil 4632 for 250 and it's my favorite watch

[@DenMcNuggetz]

Your almost at 2000 do a q and a or something !!!

[@stefanrohm4189]

$70 is ridiculously cheap for a watch. I generally budget myself around $200 for a watch purchase.

[@Pizzscn]

I'd be interested to see what you think of the watch them. I don't really know anyone who gets premium watches like that so I have no idea what to compare it to haha

[@stefanrohm4189]

I don't get anything super expensive. Just mid level fashion watches. I have a Fossil as well. It isn't a bad brand by any means. They wear a little more than other watches but they have an 11 year warranty that covers the movement. That is pretty hard to beat. If you spend a little more you can get something like a Bulova or a Citizen which have a better movement than most watches of that price and will last you forever. My favourite watch I have is an automatic Bulova. Just my two cents.

[@vegetaurs2498]

K.

[@thehegt]

it's the same watch but it's different styling ? WTF really .

[@rednecklowlife]

It makes no ticking sound when it is working!

[@harshsrivastav3344]

Plz explain the tachymeter also

[@AjuweliersNl]

Thumbs up! Nice video about this Fossil watch

[@takdisbintaher8080]

how to use the tachy on this watch? any help?

[@VamsiMohanKrishnaVadrevu]

the tachymeter is not going to be useful in this watch. they messed up it by keeping the normal seconds have as the main seconds hand. for tachymeter to work, the chronograph seconds counter should be the main seconds hand in the center. when we push the start button, the central seconds hand is supposed to start counting... and as you stop it, you'll measure the speed of something over an hour. If you want a functional chronograph with tachymeter, you can look at orient Captain chronograph. that is a well designed watch and it is fully functional

[@rodolfobenevenutti84]

Onde compro essa marca de relógio ?

[@SuperCarcher]

Nice. I own same but with white face.

[@milner267]

The white one sounds nice and classic. What's your preference?

[@SuperCarcher]

@@milner267 holy smokes, this was 6 years ago. I’ve forgotten I had that watch. It must be in storage. I’ve even forgotten this video but now that I see it again I think I like the dark face better. It almost looks like an Omega. Still a nice watch.

[@milner267]

@@SuperCarcher good call. I myself have had the dark one since about 2015, but maybe never appreciated it well enough. I'd look into having the battery replaced, as I'm now in a corporate environment.

[@SuperCarcher]

@@milner267 oof, I was in the corporate world for 30 years, good luck. And cheers owning that Fossil. I see where used ones are going cheap online. I think I might buy one. Those look like classic retro watches. Too bad nobody takes Fossil seriously but I think they make a decent watch. Or at least they used to. Currently rocking a Tissot - Men's T-Race Chrono Quartz. The one with the red rubber strap. Fossil and Tissot. That says a lot about me I think.

[@milner267]

@@SuperCarcher to be quite honest... I've never appreciated watches and their message. An old man once told me "you think manners maketh man? WATCH, maketh man"

[@nyyankees4296]

theres an easier way to reset the chronograph lol.

[@Pizzscn]

+nyyankees4296 how?

[@jaimecadena8403]

se lo puso al reves el wey, jajaja

[@albo1858]

10 atm ?

[@daytonaukpc9387]

Dear me. Another fashion watch. Second hand does not line up with the inner chapter ring, All the sub dials are also off. A tach bezel which is of no use on this watch. When will people stop wasting money on watches like these.

[@marccampbell7814]

Wtf is this shit? That watch is pure garbage! Hahaha

[@crazyfool4231]

it's way better than gshock

[@kornelberkes3999]

I just dont understand, how can someone spend so much money on a Fossil... 100 bucks, or even more... Actually, I dont understand, how can anyone wear a Fossil...

[@Pizzscn]

+Kornel Berkes fossils are actually on the low end in terms of watch prices. But yeah they aren't for everyone. If you really like something though, you'll spend more money to get it. I really liked this watch so I spent the money to get one.

[@kornelberkes3999]

Oh, actually, Fossils are not even on the map, when it comes to watches. Fossils are mall watches with chinese movements for 5 bucks a piece. That is why I dont get, how could anyone spend that much money for a chinese battery watch. In this range, you can find hundreds of Seikos, Orients and other automatic pieces from "real" watch companies. Actually, i found this video only through the search for the horrible replica of Omega Speedmasters, from Fossil...

[@kornelberkes3999]

You dont get it. But reading your comment, it doesn't really surprise me... :D If you think, that you need 5000 bucks to buy a quality watch, its your problem, I was talking about watches in the 100-300 range. There is plenty of quality automatic watches from watch companies, not fashion brands like Fossil. If you think, this is snobbery, ok, but would you drive a car produced by lets say Gucci, or a totaly average Ford? I would grab the ford, becose it is made by a car manufacturer, so it is the same with watches.

[@leoray1234]

You are so right. I got seduced by the design of a Fossil, ordered it online, and as soon as it arrived, I realized what a cheap watch it was (not cheap in price, cheap in build). It was 15 minutes off withing one day. I returned it the next day.

[@marcvidz_6490]

i mean it's really all preferences. if I see a watch I like I would buy no matter what price if it's a unique design. i don't really care for the movement. If it tells time it's a buy i would certainly buy a fossil for over 100 because I've seen some nice designs that price ranged in that area.but for now I have two fossil watches I've bought for around 60 bucks and my oldest one which is three years old works great and the battery is still running.all in all it's your money so you should buy whatever you like
