Customer Reviews
Simple elegance.
Skagen is my new favorite watchmaker because of their overall comfort, quality and design. The affordable price of their watches, relative to the thoughtfullness and quality that goes into every aspect of them, is quite remarkable.
Both the steel and titanium mesh bands are extremely comfortable and very durable. They don't irritate or leave discolored markings on the skin. The clasp system is easy to open & close and is quite reliable.
I love the simplicity and elegance of this watch. The color of the dial is a deep, dark grey; almost black. The hours and minute indicators are slightly raised, metal bullet points. There is a subtle, brushed finish on the dial that radiates a gorgeous sheen from its center. The hour and minute hands are simple silver-colored flat pins. The thinness of the watch makes it a pleasure to wear and doesn't snag on shirt cuffs.
My only negative comment is that it takes some effort to read the numbers of the dates because their extremely small size in the window.
Skagen watches have a casual elegance. They are appropriate for almost all formal or informal occasions.
Great watch, awful band
In the price range, skagen undoubtedly has the nicest watch designs I've seen but unfortunately it's not enough to overcome the problems they have designing functional bands. In less than a year, I paid twice to have broken pins repaired and then gave up when the mesh came unattached from the pin connection and the watch would have needed repair a third time.
I know the watch comes with a warranty I didn't take advantage of, but this is an irrelevant point to me. To warranty the watch, I would have had to pay $8.95 to skagen in addition to paying shipping and wait weeks for the watch to come back. What good is that? If I was a "good customer" and followed skagen's procedures, I would have paid at least $40 on top of the price of the watch, within a year, just to keep it functioning. I take very good care of my watches and didn't wear this on a daily basis either, it simply has an awfully designed pin assembly. About the same time I bought this watch, I got a skagen as a gift for my girlfriend and to no surprise, it has had the same problems. I just love giving gifts that I have to regularily take to be repaired....
Skagen Men's Mesh Bracelet Watch #355LSSM
Purchased this watch from amazon for use at work. Item is very well made with a thin outer base with a slightly higher inner center (about the size of a dime). Seems to be very accurate over the 4 week period I've used it. The band is made of steel with a shiny texture and is very beautiful to view. I would purchase it again.
