![]() There aren't many Wander features to harp on about. Fossil Q Wander: Features and performance ![]() This was used on the Q Founder days to hold an ambient light sensor and is back again to serve the same purpose, but it takes up precious screen space and, of course, isn't great to look at. There's also that notorious flat tire at the bottom of the screen. But like the Q Marshal, the display isn't as crisp as it should be with the colours coming off duller than expected. The 1.5-inch 360 x 360 resolution sounds good at first and even is a bit higher than the Moto 360 2, Michael Kors Access and Fossil's own Q Founder. The other three designs include a tan leather strap and black/white silicon straps with rose gold cases. There are six styles to choose from, with silver stainless steel case/strap and burgundy case with leather strap being the only non-rose gold choices. The rose gold is a nice touch that, along with the smaller 22mm watch strap, again brings forth a certain femininity to the design. Still, it gives the Wander the more chic feel of the two Q models, and would work well in an office setting if you don't mind the size. It's definitely different and pairs well with the classic feeling Fossil is going for but it also makes the Wander look positively huge – which it really doesn't need. I'm still undecided on how much I like this design. The lugs extend downward and give the watch a distinct look. The Q Wander doesn't have the rugged ridges of the Marshal and is instead smooth, rounded off and has different style lugs. Wander also looks kind of nice next to jewellery and a Fitbit Flex 2 bangle. As mentioned, this seems to be part of the whole fashion angle – for example, the Michael Kors Access Bradshaw is smaller at 36mm but at 14mm thick, is still bulky. The Wander remains large and weighty on the wrist. But don't count on that 0.5mm making a difference. The case is sized at 45mm and is 13.5mm thick, which is just a fraction thinner than its Q Marshal counterpart. On first glance, the Q Wander could be the bigger sister of the newer Moto 360 – with an emphasis on bigger. We've spent some time getting to know the Wander to see if it deserves a place around your wrist. ![]() Overhaul: Android Wear 2.0 update for your smartwatchĭespite this being the style with the fashion-focused brands, Wander isn't the most visually appealing watch from the Fossil lineup. At, you're looking at paying the same amount of money that it would cost to pick up our Wareable of the Year, the Apple Watch Series 2. Read next: Every Fossil Group designer watch from 2016įocusing solely on the Q Wander, it's clear that the watch was designed to be fashionable and classy with an emphasis on a more feminine look. Similar to the Samsung Gear S3 variations, there's not a huge difference under the hood with the main distinctions being cosmetic. ![]() The Q Wander and the Q Marshal are the most recent Fossil wearables to have joined the party, and boy are they dressed to the nines. ![]() But the company has its own smartwatches on hand as well. Under the Fossil banner, we've already seen offerings from Michael Kors, Kate Spade, Skagen, Misfit and more.
