Frugal Aviation Timepieces

The Keaton Leather Watch by Fossil is Aviation Style on a Budget

— December 4, 2012 — Fashion
Injecting a little aviation style into your wardrobe is simple with the Keaton Leather Watch by Fossil.

The vintage-inspired timepiece features a luxe leather strap that is available in black, grey or brown to suit any preference. Featuring a standard set of dials, the Keaton Leather Watch allows the wearer to quickly check time and date with a glance. In addition, the analog timepiece incorporates a seamless stopwatch to easily stop and start timing with one click.

The Keaton Leather Watch is comparable in style to other aviation-inspired timepieces available, but totes a much lower price point set at about $125. This not only makes it an affordable alternative, but also does away with frivolous features like an altimeter to streamline design.
