The Fossil Pearson FS6196 pairs classic elegance with practical functionality in a timepiece designed for the modern professional. Housed within a 42mm round rose gold-toned stainless steel case with a distinctive coin-edge bezel, this watch makes a sophisticated statement on the wrist. The striking navy blue dial features applied rose gold-toned indices and hands, with a multifunction display showing day-date and 24-hour subdials — essential tools for anyone juggling multiple time zones or demanding schedules.
The rich blue leather strap complements the deep dial colour beautifully, secured by a traditional pin buckle closure for all-day comfort. A reliable quartz movement ensures precision timekeeping, while 5 ATM water resistance provides protection against splashes and rain. The 22mm strap width strikes an ideal balance between presence and wearability, making this watch equally suited to boardroom meetings and weekend social occasions.

Care Guide
- Wipe the case and crystal with a soft, lint-free cloth regularly to remove oils, dust, and fingerprints.
- Clean the leather strap gently with a barely damp cloth; never submerge leather in water or expose it to harsh cleaning agents.
- Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or heat sources, which can fade and dry out the leather strap.
- Store the watch in a cool, dry environment away from magnetic fields when not worn.
- Have the battery replaced promptly when power runs low to prevent leakage and internal damage.
- Do not operate the crown or pushers while the watch is wet or submerged, as this may compromise water resistance.
- Condition the leather strap occasionally with a quality leather conditioner to maintain suppleness.
- Keep the watch away from strong chemicals, solvents, perfumes, and cosmetics that may damage finishes or seals.
- Rinse the case (not the strap) with fresh water after exposure to chlorinated or salt water, then dry thoroughly.
- Have the watch inspected and gaskets replaced every 2-3 years to maintain water resistance integrity.
