Customer Reviews
Versatile and Great to Look At
First, the minimalist design looks much better in person. I mainly bought this watch to wear at the office, but as it turns out, this Skagen is very versatile. Whether your dressing up or just going out, it works very nicely. So, in terms of looks, I'd give it a 5.
In keeping with the minimalist approach, the list of features is short. The watch is light and the mesh band is comfortable to wear. I have smaller wrists and was delighted to find that the band can be easily adjusted to accomodate many different sizes. Also, the calendar is definately a plus.
But while the minimalist approach pleases the eye during the day, at night, the watch becomes useless. I wish Skagen included some sort of glow-mechanism to illuminate some part of the watch in low light. Nothing. This is my only complaint.
Overall, I love this watch. If I could rate the item a 4.5, I would.
Great watch, but one problem
I recieved this watch as a gift about 5 months ago and I really like it. As a person with hairy arms I was looking for a nice watch that doesnt pull my hair out, which I find incredibly annoying. The titanium mesh band on this watch does a great job of of not catching those hairs. All of the finish and materials have held up well to the daily abuse that I give it.
The only real problem I have with my watch is that it is incredibly loud. In relative silence I can hear it from 6-8 feet away and, if I think about it, I can hear it while watching TV. Although this isnt really a problem for me my girlfriend found it akin to something out of a Edgar Allen Poe story...a relentless ticking that drove her crazy. There is a possibility that its just my watch because its somehow defective.
Skagen rocks - great styling, great service
I owned a Skagen for years, fairly similar to this one, originally bought at a retail store, perhaps 10 years or more back. (Sorry Amazon, before your time.) Got lots and lots of compliments on it - pretty much the only fashion item I've ever been complimented on.
After really quite a lot of abuse over the years, I finally cracked the crystal. Probably the 20'th direct shot it had taken, so clearly my own fault. I checked the Skagen website for repair work and they have a very clear policy and reasonable price schedule for crystal repairs, case replacement, new band, new works, etc.
After checking around, they said my watch was too far out of date to be repaired, but they offered to let me pick anything from their current online catalog for the cost of the repair (if parts had been available). So for $30 - the cost of a new crystal and case - the watch in this listing is the one I chose.
I like this watch very much and again get compliments on it all the time. And obviously Skagen earned themselves a loyal customer with their more-than-reasonable warranty service. I'm happy to recommend them.
