Nice Mido too Pax The Fossils are using a Chinese mechanical/auto movement,you can see the rotor (blue on mine) from the front through the mineral crystal and the colors vary ,the quick set date is cool...you only pull the crown out each time ...it's kinda spring like ..pretty cool..they have about 5 styles now, including divers and most are in SS..this was the only Black Ionic ..the movement is held in place by the bridges as is on all models...I had great luck in the past with my quartz Fossils..these run a whopping $95. and are carried in most Mall dept. stores(like Dillards,Nordstrom) and Sunglass Huts....pretty hefty for a beater too..they all looked to be good sized and mine is running +12 sec. I never thought this would come out but...nice Fossil, Oscar!! It is pretty cool indeed...what are the details? I'm breaking out my NOS MIDO Commander today.

Have a good one all,

Pax
