House Watches
Fossil have released four House Watches priced at $200 each, each depicting the colours and logos from their respective houses; Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Slytherin and Hufflepuff. Each of the houses in the Harry Potter universe symbolise defining traits, attitudes and aesthetics that are reverberated throughout the group. Traditionally, students are sorted by the Sorting Hat, which is one of the cleverest enchanted objects in existence and contains the intelligence of the four school founders. The hat works by delving into the mind of the wearer’s head to divine his or her capabilities, thoughts and mood. Unfortunately, us muggles must resort to other means of sorting. You can either choose a house that you feel best reflects you best, or you can take the official Wizarding World Sorting Test.
Gryffindor Fossil Watch
The Gryffindor house is first up, unsurprisingly. Known for their daring, nerve and chivalry, Gryffindors are set apart by their bravery and courage. Housing notable characters like Harry Potter, Hermione Granger and Ron Weasly, this house has a lot to live up to.
The Gryffindor watch is proudly cased in the luxurious hues of yellow gold and boasts the lion-themed emblem in the middle of the dial. The signature colours of scarlet and gold are echoed throughout the dial and watch strap with an iconic flame-like diamond pattern sprawling across the surface of the dial. The Gryffindor title is etched above the emblem in a haunting font, which is a recurring theme throughout the House Watches.
Hufflepuff Fossil Watch
The underestimated yet mighty house that is represented by the ever-so-courageous Badger. Those who are affiliated with Hufflepuff are defined by their loyalty and patience, quiet achievers who attain traits of kindness and courage. Embrace the essence of members like Newt Scamander, Cedric Diggory and Nymphadora Tonks.
The Hufflepuff watch rocks the notable colours of black and yellow that actually look really striking on this watch. The hardware is finished in smooth black stainless steel that matches the black fabric nicely and really ties the piece together. The quartered face has diagonal stripes that take inspiration from the quidditch scarf and again, the badger logo sits at the centre of the piece.

Slytherin Fossil Watch
Maybe you belong in the misunderstood Slytherin house. While they are often given a bad wrap, the Slytherin house do have honourable traits in their wits, determination and talent. Those who are in the Slytherin house have the chance to use their powers for good like Severus Snape unlike some of their notable members like Lord Voldemort.
A ‘dark-horse’ house that is dressed in green and black and symbolised by a cunning snake that reflects the perception of the House. The silver-toned bezel and case lightens the piece and contrasts the band and dial to bring all the elements together. Under the snake sits a stylish checkerboard pattern.
Ravenclaw Fossil Watch
Quick on their feet, with a ready mind and keen motivation to learn, the Ravenclaw bunch are logical, smart and gifted. For those who excel in academia, or are a whizz at newspaper quizzes, then the wise old Ravenclaw could be the place for you! Stand alongside some of Hogwarts brightest talents like Luna Lovegood, Gilderoy Lockhart and Filius Flitwick in this house.
The Ravenclaw watch complements the Ravenclaw colours with blue and white stripes that line the strap. Complete with silver hardware that looks great against the white fabric, the watch has a nice overall look. The dial boasts the eagle crest which is set under the hands, just like the other models and a chequered pattern slashes through the dial.

The Hogwarts Fossil Watch
The signature of the Wizarding World Fossil collection, the golden Hogwarts watch is a beautiful timepiece. Expressing a more sophisticated and classic tone, the watch is spectacular in its fine intricacies. Inspired by the Fossil Heritage, this timepiece reinvents the elegant design.
This timepiece moves away from the fabric watch straps with a gold-plated stainless steel bracelet and a small date window for added convenience. Filled to the brim with magical details like a lightning-bolt second hand, dial patterns and a ‘H’ emblem with worn gold that gives the piece character. The Hogwarts school crest can be found on the case back and the hands are covered in luminescent material that will illuminate in the dark - even without a Lumos spell.
A perfect gift for Harry Potter fans, or an addition to your own collection. These Harry Potter watches are gorgeous in their overall designs and fine details alike with the quality watchmaking of a Fossil piece.
