Both Timex Group, USA and Fossil, Inc. manufacture watches in the Far East and import them into the United States. Both companies also have high-end divisions that manufacture watches in Switzerland.

Both companies are known for manufacturing quality watches. Timex, as a compnay, has been manufacturing watches since 1854 (the golden age of American watch manufacturing) and only in the past 30/40 years did they offshore watch production to Asia. Fossil started in 1984 with the intention of selling moderately-priced watches manufactured in the Far East in American markets.

In summary, the Timex brand has a more storied history of quality watch production, but in modern times Fossil and Timex are of more-or-less comparable quality.
