Item: Fossil Mens Machine Chronograph (image source)
It has been a very long time since I last wore a watch, but a friend of mine recently received one as a gift and it's looks are impressive. This brings me to my latest itch - the Fossil Mens Machine Chronograph watch. It is very stylish and sleek. It has a low profile and would match just about anything since black on black matches any and all attire. It also has some really nice blue accents which are subtle in design but gives it some added "pop".
In looking at a few websites where this watch can be purchased, I am not seeing any mention of what type of glass it uses. I would really like to know if it has any sort of scratch resistant glass or better yet.. gorilla glass. For those of you who do not know what gorilla glass is, check out the itch reliever!
Itch reliever: Corning Gorilla Glass
Gorilla glass is a marvelous invention. It is glass that has been chemically strengthened and engineered specifically to be thin and damage-resistant. During it's manufacturing process, the glass is hardened by ion exchange which involves placing it in molten potassium salt where large potassium ions replace smaller sodium ions. The glass is then pressed and cooled which produces a layer of compressive stress on the surface of the glass. Gorilla glass is widely used in smart phones and tablets and is named for a gorilla’s attributes of toughness and beauty.
That's a nice watch! Looks pretty awesome. Fossil is coming out with some pretty good lookin ones these days and for a decent price
