I have to disagree with the history a bit. When Fossil bought out Zodiac, the watches produced were absolute trash. Fossil was buying them purely to gain entry into the swiss market for their fashion brands. The products sold by fossil outlets were not good (especially in early 2010s), and strayed too far from the origin that made Zodiac such a strong brand. Thankfully in the past years Fossil and Zodiac has made a change for the better and allowed Zodiac to stray away from the commercial fashion brand style watches and now back into producing high quality watches.
