Amazon.com Product Description
A great match to your contemporary business couture, this Skagen titanium men's watch features a thin profile that's just 9mm thick (0.35 inches) and feather-light weight. The case and bracelet are made from solid titanium, which is nearly 50 percent lighter than steel, but 30 percent stronger. It's also particularly resistant to salt water corrosion, as well as hypo-allergenic--perfect for those with metal allergies. The black dial face offers three subdials--day of the week, date, and second time zone--as well as super luminous stick markers and hands (with seconds hand), and small minute indexes. Other features include Japanese quartz movement, a scratch-resistant super-hardened 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.

Customer Reviews

Better than I hoped, but not perfect
Love the watch, love the look but I had hoped it would be a little more durable. I bought it because of what I read about titanium not looking scratched very easily, but the band looks just as scratched as all my other watches - maybe even faster. However on the bright side, the face has been much more scratch resistant.

All in all a nicely designed watch, wears nicely, looks nice, accurate. No real complaints just not as durable as I had been lead to believe it would be from various reviews I read.

Great Watch
What I've been looking for since my old Seiko broke, thin, light,good looking, and keeps excellent time.All the new affordable watches I looked at or purchased are to big and to heavy, it felt as though I was wearing a Volkswagen on my wrist. The Skagen was a great find at a great price on Amazon, the cost for the same watch was double at my local Dillard's.

Great watch
I really like this watch. It's thin and not too heavy, and the styling is good for business and casual situations. I am concerned that it's not as durable as my Swatch, but it's held up well so far.
