Product Information

Full details

The Fossil Carraway Automatic Watch is designed for individuals who appreciate the intersection of vintage aesthetics and modern mechanical engineering. Its primary appeal lies in its sophisticated 30mm rectangular frame and skeletonized dial, which offers a captivating glimpse into the watch's internal movement. While it provides an elegant, timeless look suitable for professional and casual settings, potential buyers should note that as an automatic timepiece, it requires consistent movement or manual winding to maintain accuracy, unlike battery-powered quartz models.

FAQs

Does this watch need a battery?

No, the Carraway is an automatic watch powered by the movement of your wrist.

Can I wear this watch while swimming?

It is water-resistant to 50 meters, making it suitable for short periods of swimming or showering, though we recommend keeping the leather strap dry.

How do I wind the watch manually?

With the crown in the closed (pushed-in) position, turn it clockwise about 15 to 20 times until you feel slight resistance.

What does skeletonized mean?

It means the dial is partially cut away, allowing you to see the gears and mechanical components of the movement inside.

Is the strap replaceable?

Yes, the watch uses standard lug attachments, allowing you to replace the strap with any compatible 30mm-width band.

Troubleshooting

Watch has stopped running

Manually wind the crown clockwise for 15-20 turns or wear the watch consistently for a few hours to build the power reserve.

Time is drifting or inaccurate

Automatic mechanical watches can lose a few seconds per day; ensure the watch is wound daily and kept away from strong magnetic fields.

Leather strap feels stiff

Genuine leather will naturally soften and conform to your wrist with regular use over the first few weeks.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Elegant and distinct rectangular design
  • No battery required due to automatic movement
  • Comfortable fit with curved case construction
  • Scratch-resistant mineral crystal for durability

Cons

  • Requires regular wear to stay powered
  • Automatic movements are less accurate than quartz
  • 30mm size may feel small for some wrist types

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set your watch, pull the crown out to the first position and rotate to adjust the time. Ensure the crown is pushed back in completely to maintain water resistance. For care, clean the stainless steel case with a soft, lint-free cloth. Since the strap is genuine leather, avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or moisture, which can cause the material to crack or fade. If the watch stops, turn the crown clockwise while it is pushed in to give it an initial boost of power. Store the watch in a cool, dry place when not in use.
