With six styles to choose from, the limited-edition timepieces will come packaged in a collector’s box that includes cinematic sound effects, comic-book-style illustrations and a replica movie ticket pin.
Among the assortment is the Luke Skywalker timepiece ($270), with a glowing green lightsaber as the second hand.
The R2-D2 watch ($370) will include Japanese automatic movement, along with a minute hand shaped like the droid’s repair tool arm.
A coordinating jewelry collection with designs based on characters including Yoda, R2-D2 and C-3PO will also be a part of the Star Wars x Fossil collection. The hoop earrings ($65) will spotlight the Rebellion logo and the two ID plaque necklaces, ($85) inspired by the droid, will include an etched R2-D2 design on one one and a C-3PO design on the other.
The collection is available beginning Thursday at Fossil.com and select Fossil retail stores.
