Company Description
WHAT VINTAGE ARE YOU?™
The Heart And Soul of Fossil
The heart and soul of the FOSSIL brand – its people, products and culture – is about a unique kind of inspired creativity. Representing the concept of accessible cool, Fossil’s identity is anchored in vintage authentic style mixed with a creative spirit and a sense of humor that extends into all its product offerings, graphics and one-of-a-kind, trademark collectible tins. Fossil creates modern yet vintage products for everyone, a simple yet compelling idea reflected in the Company's tagline, What Vintage Are You?TM
Design
Fossil's in-house team of renowned designers constantly study and draw inspiration from emerging lifestyle and fashion trends to bring customers the most innovative and unique products worldwide while ensuring consistency with the Company's existing product offerings and the themes and images that it associates with its products. For its licensed brands, Fossil works with the respective licensor's design team. In certain instances, Fossil believes that innovations in design details for the Company's watches and details and treatments in its other accessories have allowed it to achieve significant improvements in consumer acceptance of its products with only minor increases in manufacturing costs. Fossil believes that the substantial experience of its design staff will assist in maintaining its current leadership position in watch design and in expanding the scope of its product offerings.
In 2006, Fossil accomplished two firsts. After more than seventeen years of transforming the very concept of packaging with its signature watch tins, Fossil announced in June, Tinspiration, the Fossil design contest, inviting designers from around the United States to develop artwork for the brand's famous watch tin packaging. Over 250 submissions were posted to the fossil.com website and after the final voting was tallied, a winner was announced in November. The main prize was the winner's and the second, third and fourth place finishers designs to be produced on a limited edition run of Fossil watch tins summer of 2007. Additional prizes were also given. The contest was wonderfully successful that Fossil will announce another design contest later this year.
Also, as part of its celebration of their unique tin history, Fossil published a coffee-table book anthology showcasing hundreds of its most creative and unique tin designs from the past 17 years. The Fossil tin has delivered a fun, irreverent and vintage brand message to millions of consumers worldwide for over 17 years.
These iconic boxes are nearly as popular as the watches they hold and are regularly collected and traded throughout the world at flea markets, antique shops, and on eBay. With one of the most celebrated graphic design teams in the world and hundreds of awards to their credit, Fossil continues to set the highest standard for creative excellence.
