Fossil ES5329 Carlie Three-Hand White Dial Gold Chain Bracelet

Fossil ES5329: The Carlie in Gold

The Carlie line takes a ’90s T-bar bracelet design and updates it for current tastes. The ES5329 goes gold-tone with a silver sunray dial—warm case against cool dial creates contrast without being busy.

Sized for Smaller Wrists

28mm diameter keeps things properly compact. This isn’t a scaled-down version of a larger watch; it’s designed for smaller wrists from the start. The T-bar bracelet links maintain proportion with the case. Roman numerals at 12 and 6, stick indices elsewhere—clean layout that reads well at this size.

The Adjust-O-Matic Thing

Fossil’s Adjust-O-Matic clasp lets you fine-tune the bracelet fit without tools. It sounds gimmicky but works well in practice. The 12mm bracelet width stays balanced with the case proportions.

Practical Details

Quartz three-hand movement does what it should. Mineral crystal handles daily wear. 50m water resistance covers hand washing and rain. The silver sunray dial catches light differently depending on the angle—more interesting than flat white.
