                 DEREGISTRATION OF UNSOLD SHARES OF COMMON STOCK

          Pursuant to its Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration 
No. 333-49699), Fossil, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), 
registered 2,150,000 shares of its Common Stock, $0.01 par value ("Common 
Stock"), including 215,000 shares offered by the Company and 1,935,000 shares 
offered by four Selling Shareholders.  Additionally, the Company registered 
322,500 shares of Common Stock pursuant to an over-allotment option granted 
by one of the Selling Shareholders to the Underwriters.  Effective May 5, 
1998, 2,150,000 shares of the Common Stock were sold, with 215,000 shares 
sold by the Company and 1,935,000 shares sold by the Selling Shareholders.  
Subsequently, the Underwriters exercised the over-allotment option.  However, 
the over-allotment option was not fully exercised.  Only 152,500 shares of 
Common Stock granted pursuant to the over-allotment option were exercised.  
Accordingly, the Company hereby deregisters the remaining 170,000 shares of 
Common Stock that were not sold pursuant to the Registration Statement and as 
a result of the partial exercise of the over-allotment option.

Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets 
all of the requirements for filing on Form S-3 and has duly caused this 
amendment to the registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the 
undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Richardson and the
