Harry Potter Fossil Watches | Limited Edition Features
5 Limited Edition watches to commemorate the biggest fantasy series of all time, Fossil and Warner Bros. Consumer Products certainly conjured up a frenzy with their latest collaboration' Stupefy!
Fans of the wizarding world now have the difficult task of deciding which watch in the series they resonate most with, collectors on the other hand, well they'll just have them all!
4 of the 5 Limited Edition watches are themed to the famous Hogwarts Houses; Gryffindor, Slytherin, Hufflepuff, and Ravenclaw, each one masterfully designed to reflect the house colours and crests. The 5th watch is the holy grail of the collection, a timepiece encased in gold that salutes Hogwarts and all that it represents.
The 4 House of Hogwarts Fossil Harry Potter watches have similar functionality, separated only by their attributes. Apart from the decorated watch face that bares the animal crest and colours of each individual house, other features of the analogue dial include the addition of a white index that's cleverly segregated in 5-minute increments, with the addition of round gold or stainless steel embellished markers that are placed strategically at each hour point, portraying a powerful contrast to the otherwise simple time display.
Three hands allow for precision timekeeping that's enhanced by Fossil's high-quality function and finish. The watches are battery-powered with Japanese quartz movement and boast a 5-ATM water resistance. The house logo is proudly displayed at the top of the animal crest in true Hogwarts-styled font, accompanied by the Fossil signature label that's positioned parallel.
Although there's plenty to admire about the 4 House of Hogwarts Fossil Harry Potter watches, the ease of use is impeccable, with the sorted dial and three hands making them easy to read at a glance.
The same brilliant attributes are reflected in the Limited Edition Hogwarts Fossil Heritage Automatic Watch. The major difference with this version is the automatic mechanics that power it in place of the quartz movement, an attribute that draws in watch aficionados and collectors alike.
Gryffindor Fossil Watch | Limited Edition
The Limited Edition Harry Potter Gryffindor Fossil watch is an absolute fan favourite, and for obvious reasons. Representing the house of the Golden Trio; Harry Potter, Ronald Weasley, and Hermione Granger, the Gryffindor Fossil watch features the infamous Gryffindor lion crest that's represented in gold with black accents on the dial, set to the house colours of red and yellow.
The addition of a nylon strap has also been fashionably styled to Gryffindor's striped red and yellow motif, complimenting a golden stainless steel bezel, case, and crown. The crown is further embellished with a red accent at the head. While the front of the strap is nylon adorned, the back of the strap has a genuine leather covering.

Hufflepuff Fossil Watch | Limited Edition
The Limited Edition Harry Potter Hufflepuff Fossil Watch is more appealing than the house itself.

Despite the negative stereotype though, the Hufflepuff House actually reflects the personalities of hard-working loyal and accepting characters, like Cedric Diggory, Nymphadora Tonks, and Pamona Sprout.

Ravenclaw Fossil Watch | Limited Edition
The Limited Edition Harry Potter Ravenclaw Fossil Watch certainly displays the intelligence, learning, wisdom, and wit of the personalities it attracts.

Hogwarts Fossil Heritage Automatic Watch
The most spectacular watch in the Harry Potter Fossil watches Limited Edition 5-set collection is the Hogwarts Fossil Heritage Automatic Watch which includes all the qualities of the 4 House Of Hogwarts Harry Potter Fossil Watches, with some magical highlights, and a higher price tag.
The watch features a striking quarter split dial that honours each of the 4 houses separately by their colour spectrum; red for Gryffindor, green for Slytherin, yellow for Hufflepuff, and blue for Ravenclaw. A giant 'H' logo is centred on the dial referencing the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Further attributes of the watch face include the addition of a date window that's positioned at the quarter-past mark. The most impressive feature of the all-over gold-plated stainless steel watch though is the subtle nod it gives to the infamous Harry Potter scar; the iconic lightning bolt, that makes its debut on the seconds hand. The minute and hour hands have also been given an upgrade that's not included in the 4 House Of Hogwarts Harry Potter Fossil watch varieties, with the clever addition of an illumination feature that gives light to the hands, making them glow-in-the-dark' Lumos!
The automatic movement of the Hogwarts Fossil Heritage Automatic Watch further sets the timepiece apart from the other 4 watches in the Limited Edition collection. The automatic watch feature is so highly acclaimed, not only for the self-winding capabilities that drive its movement; powered by the motion of the wearer's wrist, but more so, by the clear sapphire case back that acts as a lens to the internal mechanics of the watch, giving the wearer a preview of the watch at work. The Hogwarts School crest is represented in full colour on the case back of the Hogwarts Fossil Heritage Automatic Watch, a final ode to its legacy. There's only a small number of 3000 Limited Edition Hogwarts Fossil Heritage Automatic Gold watch models in circulation globally.
