Watch, Meet Smartwatch: Fossil And Misfit Think They're A Perfect Match

Harry Wang, director of mobile and health products research at Dallas-based Parks Associates, said the digital fitness tracker is the fastest-growing category in the connected health device market, and Fitbit is the clear leader, with a more than 50 percent market share. There will be demand for various types of fitness trackers. Some older people, for example, may want a wearable just for measuring walking distances and steps.

Wang said he believes that smartwatches will soon gain the lead over trackers, and that that may put Fossil in a good place.
