Overview

This is a meticulously curated collector's set featuring a quartz timepiece with a multi-layered dial depicting Spider-Man in combat with Doctor Octopus.

Story

In 1994, the comic book industry was at the height of a massive cultural explosion, and Marvel sought to elevate their characters from newsstand staples to high-end collectibles.

Maker / Origin

Founded in 1984, Fossil revolutionized the watch industry not just with timepieces, but with packaging; they were the first to turn the watch box into a collectible in its own right.

Condition & Value

The watch appears to be in very good cosmetic condition with a clean crystal and minimal wear to the leather strap. Value is heavily dependent on the completeness of the set; having the 'book' box and the miniature comic is vital.
