Great quality watch for a great price on Amazon! (2010-03-05)
I always love Skagen watches because of their simple, but elegant, sophisticated, and light design. The titanium mesh is very strong, and if one knows how to secure the clasp rightly, it will be your hand's trustful and reliable companion for many years to come (even for those who work with their hands). My first Skagen lasted a very long time... Actually, it's still working perfectly, since I'm only giving it away to a friend as I'm buying this particular model.
My old Skagen watch is in charcoal color with no date dial or illuminant feature. It works well, but since I'm kind of a perfectionist and careful with date and time (on top of that, I'm not good with memorizing today's date), I like to have a watch that would tell me the exact date and illuminate the time in the dark. This model is bigger than my older watch, but is still light and elegant as any other Skagen watch.
I like it a lot because it has what I need, and I was able to get it at a good price on Amazon (after an extensive time shopping around for the right price). If you don't like the silver / stainless steel look of the mesh band, you can choose another color, but I personally don't have anything against it because it just look like any other silver / stainless steel watches. Plus, Skagen allows you to adjust the mesh band and clasp easily without any special tool or time consuming exercises. I have a lot of people complemented this watch because of its simplistic elegant without all the bulky and "bling" design. If the other style(s) float your boat, go ahead, but just know that Skagen is on the other end of the spectrum.
Simply put, I am happy with my purchase, especially with the Skagen quality. I never had any problem with Skagen (neither with the battery, the crystal, the mesh band, or the clasp) if I wear it rightly according to instruction and its design purposes. I hope you will enjoy your Skagen watch too!
Not For Those Who Pick Up More Then A Pen At Work!!! (2010-02-07)
This watch is beautifully thin and classy, but as the other reviewers have mentioned - the mesh band can begin to get loose and pick upwards. This causes it to snag your clothing and ultimately make the watch unwearable. So, unless your in the office ONLY when wearing it - your bound to damage the bands metal mesh fibers. Skagen is designed for people with small wrists or better taste then those who choose to wear the trendy oversized watch faces.
a great watch, with one inadequancy. (2009-12-15)
I got it from costco when it was on sale for $40 apiece. The hands and numbers are quite easy to read. However, as some reviewers have mentioned, the date window is very small so you have really look hard to see it. Otherwise, it is great. Just noticed that the hands and numbers are actually fluorescent, although it is quite dim and can be seen only in a very dark place.
