What They’re Saying:
- Melissa Lowenkron, Chief Brand Officer of Fossil: “With a shared core value of ingenuity and rich history rooted in design, Disney and Fossil are kindred spirits. Disney holds a special place in many people’s memories and within Fossil’s archives. We’re thrilled to launch the first part of our long-term collaboration, look forward to sharing more in the coming months and hope people enjoy collecting these unique and nostalgic pieces.”
- Ryan White, Creative Director of Watches: “I am particularly excited for the Sketch watch. No one has shown Disney’s Mickey Mouse from the perspective of the Illustrator and the original 2D artists, so we wanted to bring that idea to life in an authentic way as a hand-sketched character design. It’s so different from anything that’s been done.”
Special- and Limited-Edition Watches
Each timepiece has been designed on the Fossil Heritage watch platform and features a 43mm three-piece case, ultra-precise Japanese automatic movement and double-domed, scratch resistant sapphire crystal for unrivaled clarity. Also features corresponding custom-designed caseback with an original Mickey Mouse illustration, and the crown is accented with the character’s iconic silhouette.
