It's not just a business, but a culmination of his passion for timeless elegance and dedication to quality.

Fossil Gen 6 watch bands are one of the most searched - and most misunderstood - replacements in the smartwatch category. The reason: Fossil makes the Gen 6 in two case sizes that use completely different lug widths. Getting this right before you order saves a return.
Fossil Gen 6 size guide - critical
| Model | Case Size | Lug Width |
|---|---|---|
| Fossil Gen 6 | 44mm | 22mm |
| Fossil Gen 6 Wellness Edition | - | 20mm |

Best band types for Fossil Gen 6
Leather - pairs well with the Fossil design language. The 44mm case suits thicker, structured leather straps. The 42mm works best with slim 18mm leather bands.
Stainless steel Milanese - a popular upgrade for the Gen 6 44mm. Gives the watch a more premium bracelet look than the stock band.
Silicone and sport bands - for the Wellness Edition (20mm), breathable sport bands are the most practical choice for fitness and sleep tracking.
