Amazon.com Product Description
A great choice for globe-trotting business travelers with an eye for high style, this Skagen stainless steel men's dress watch offers a unique dual-time function that enables the wearer to track two different time zones. It has a two-level dial, featuring one dial sitting atop the other (with the bottom dial surrounded by small minute indexes). The silver dagger-style hands and markers show off nicely against the deep black face. It's completed by a gently tapered leather strap in black. This full-sized timepiece measures 30mm wide (1.2 inches) and 9mm thick (0.35 inches). Other features include Japanese quartz movement, a scratch-resistant mineral crystal, and water resistance to 100 meters (330 feet)--offering protection from accidental splashes as well suitable for swimming, snorkeling, and light recreational diving.
About Skagen Named after a fishing hamlet in Denmark on the northern tip of the Jutland peninsula, Skagen Designs was founded by Henrik and Charlotte Jorst in 1991 after the two Copenhagen natives moved to New York City. The company subscribes to the principle that beautifully designed, high-quality objects can be created at reasonable prices. Skagen watches represent the technical excellence, refined design and operational simplicity that have created the unique reputation of Danish design.
The fishing village of Skagen--the Skaw--lies where the northern-most tip of the Danish peninsula known as Jutland bends East and breaks the surging waters of the Kattegat and Skagerak seas. The spectacular natural beauty of the area is compellingly beautiful, and its white sandy beaches have been visited by artists for centuries.

Skagen Mens Dual Time Black Leather (2008-10-05)
I've had this watch for about 2 months and I really like it. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because I haven't owned it long enough to judge its workmanship. This is my third Skagen and the others work and look fine too.
I got this dual time zone watch because I live in Hawaii and my colleagues are on both coasts. I also travel, so this is great to have.
won't set off the metal detector at the airport (2008-01-23)
I have to ammend this review. The weakness in the design is the watch band. There are two small screws that hold the band on and they wear thru the leather causing the band to fall off. After one year I am now faced with ordering a second replacement band. I find this disappointing since this is not even the watch my husband wears every day. We will see what Skagen has to say about it because they are getting a protest letter and not just a band replacement order next.
Original review: I got this for my husband as a travel watch, and he likes it! He doesn't have to take his watch off at airport security, so that is just one less thing to slow him down. And the dual times will be especially useful on overseas trips. The only thing missing is the date, but otherwise it is a chic highly-functional watch with a nice leather band.
Great Watch (2007-09-26)
I bought this watch as a replacement of a dual-faced Skagen I purchase several years ago. I like this one even better.
