“With a shared core value of ingenuity and rich history rooted in design, Disney and Fossil are kindred spirits,” says Melissa Lowenkron, Chief Brand Officer of Fossil. “Disney holds a special place in many people’s memories and within Fossil’s archives. We’re thrilled to launch the first part of our long-term collaboration, look forward to sharing more in the coming months and hope people enjoy collecting these unique and nostalgic pieces.”
Disney | Fossil first launches with a collection of watches, leather goods and jewellery, including three spectacular timepieces inspired by Disney’s iconic Mickey Mouse:
Special-Edition Classic Disney Mickey Mouse Watch ($779)
This reimagination of our fan-favourite Disney Mickey Mouse timepiece from 1992 is the quintessential watch to bring the iconic character to life in vivid detail.
Limited-Edition Sketch Disney Mickey Mouse Watch ($779)
The original illustration for Walt Disney’s Mickey Mouse is the creative blueprint for this piece, paying homage to the art of animation and the visionary who sparked a world of imagination. The watch’s dial includes handwritten notes from the original Walt Disney Animation Studio’s Mickey Mouse artwork and is made to look like parchment paper from a sketchpad, layered with acetate to add dimension and create the illusion of film. Only 1,723 are being sold globally—a nod to 1923 when Disney was created.
Limited-Edition Shadow Disney Mickey Mouse Watch ($839)
Inspired by the unmistakable silhouette of Disney’s Mickey Mouse, this standout watch is a modern take on what makes it so iconic. Only 1,523 are being sold globally.
“I am particularly excited for the Sketch watch. No one has shown Disney’s Mickey Mouse from the perspective of the Illustrator and the original 2D artists, so we wanted to bring that idea to life in an authentic way as a hand-sketched character design. It’s so different from anything that’s been done,” says Ryan White, Creative Director of Watches. “This is such a throwback piece to capture the original process of 2D illustration with artists using stacks of animation paper, building each scene or making the characters move. For the historian who appreciates Walt’s innovation and the 2D animation technique, this is a watch for true collectors.”
All designed on our classic Fossil Heritage watch platform, the timepieces feature a 43mm three-piece case, ultra-precise Japanese automatic movement and double-domed, scratch resistant sapphire crystal for unrivalled clarity. The three styles have a corresponding custom-designed caseback with an original Disney Mickey Mouse illustration, and the crown is accented with the character’s iconic silhouette. Each watch is packaged in specially designed boxes, crafted to be a keepsake with an enclosed certificate of authenticity.
In addition to these special- and limited-edition watches, Disney | Fossil also offers five timepieces designed exclusively for Fossil Outlet. Inspired by vintage animations, they feature Disney’s Mickey Mouse and friends—such as Disney Minnie Mouse, Pluto and more—for $190.
Fans can collect even more new nostalgia with our assortment of leather goods. Beautifully crafted from rich leather, they reveal Disney Mickey Mouse’s iconic shadow with subtle shine on monochromatic black. The canteen bag ($399) plays with shape in its novel silhouette.
