Several customers describe strong build quality, reliable long-term performance, and watches arriving in good condition. A smaller group reports faults, including strap defects, a broken strap bar screw, and intermittent movement problems.

Marione 4/5

I have a aprox. 20 year old Fossil Watch, and a few months ago the watch band broke so I thought about going to a local retail shop for a new one, but I didn't have much time, so I went online for The Watch Hut and found out that the Fossil watch that I wanted was made to order. So I just sent my order in and I wasn't disappointed. The staff will go well out of their way to take care of you from customer service staff to UPS Ground delivery driver(s). With fast shipping at reasonable prices The Watch Hut is an affordable
