by John Russel Jones

In honor of 40 years of the release of the “Star Wars: Return Of The Jedi” film, Fossil is excited to announce its Star Wars x Fossil collection, launching globally on fan-favorite day—May the 4th. Exceptionally crafted down to the very last detail, the capsule of watches and jewelry pays homage to the iconic characters and symbols of the Rebellion.

“We’re thrilled to share this special collection celebrating a story that has made such a cultural impact on generations and that, like Fossil, evokes a feeling of nostalgia for so many,” says Melissa Lowenkron, Chief Brand Officer. “Made for fans by fans—we’re excited for people to discover the intricate details inspired by the film and to collect their favorite pieces from this exceptional collaboration.”

The Star Wars x Fossil collection launches with six limited-edition timepieces, meticulously designed in celebration of the film’s most beloved rebels. Each individually numbered watch is packaged in a collector’s box — showcasing cinematic sound effects, comic-book style illustrations, and a replica movie ticket pin — and features quintessential character details.

Watch styles are inspired by characters Luke Skywalker, Leia Organa, Han Solo, Chewbacca ($270 Retail), R2-D2, and C-3PO (both droid styles retail for $370). Besides the limited-edition watch assortment, Star Wars x Fossil also offers five special-edition watches (top of page) with comic-book-style graphic dials, silicone straps, and classic tins for $160.

Fans can further wear the Force with the special edition Star Wars x Fossil jewelry collection including a gold-tone charm necklace ($95), charm bracelet ($125), earring stud set ($95), and hoop earrings ($65). The capsule also includes two ID plaque necklaces ($85) inspired by the beloved droids.
