Fossil Coachman CH2565

Fun With Watches video title and body explicitly compare Ben Nevis BN6017G with Fossil CH2565 as the inspiration. Fossil’s official product page identifies SKU CH2565 as Coachman; the 2015 Fossil linebook lists CH2565 in the Coachman section. This candidate scopes the comparison to BN6017G. The original WatchUSeek family label omits G and says “Chairman,” so it does not prove the unsuffixed Ben Nevis mapping.

Sources agree.

Fossil official page and Watchard exact EAN CH2565 both report a 45 mm case size/width. Ormoda says 44 mm, retained as an alternate listing claim.

Sources differ

Fossil official page says 45 mm; Ormoda says 44 mm. Use official nominal case size; preserve exact retailer alternative.

Lug to lug51 mmFossil Coachman CH2565 Quartz Watch | Ormoda

One cited source.

Ormoda exact CH2565 body explicitly labels 51 mm “Lug to Lug height.” Its listing gives 44 mm case diameter, so keep this as a specific seller specimen.

Sources agree.

Ormoda, Just In Time and Watchard exact CH2565 listings report 13 mm. eBay’s conflicting 12 mm claim remains observed.

Sources differ

Two exact-reference retailers report 13 mm; an eBay product listing reports 12 mm and includes an inconsistent 12 mm lug-width field.

Lug width22 mmFossil Straps ACH2565 CH2565 Coachman Strap | Holland Watch Group

One cited source.

The original Fossil strap ACH2565 is listed as compatible only with CH2565 and directly labels lug width 22 mm.

Sources and unconfirmed details
  • The exact BN6017G comparator is established, but the unsuffixed BN6017 family mapping remains unresolved. CH2565’s 22 mm value is official strap-fit width, not caliper measurement across lugs.
Unsuffixed Ben Nevis BN6017 / Fossil Chairman community attribution, exact Fossil model unresolved

WatchUSeek post #16,271 (ID 51549423), authored by CoolR, labels unsuffixed Ben Nevis BN6017 / Fossil Chairman but gives no Fossil reference, product link or Fossil photo. Adjacent post #16,272 is by No1VIPER, who separately published a video comparing BN6017G with Fossil CH2565. That direct comparison applies to BN6017G only. Fossil official and linebook sources identify CH2565 as Coachman. The exact Fossil model intended by CoolR for unsuffixed BN6017 remains unresolved; do not transfer CH2565 dimensions. See evidence/families-3/fossil-unsuffixed-lineage-followup-2026-10-07.md and results/fossil-source-lineage.md.
