Does anyone have any experience of Skagen?

I've never been a fan of huge watches and Skagen seem to do some nice ones.

Cheers,
Paul.

There have been a few threads posted recently regarding Skagen watches ... Have a look at these:

I don't have experience of them myself, but I believe there are a few members on here who own one smile

I have a Skagen Mens Titanium Black with the mesh strap, black face, don't like the blue face version.

I'm not into watches tbh, especially the half an ingot style, but it's surprised me the number of girls in the office who in the run up to Christmas have asked what it is and where I got it from*. Suspect there will be a few trees with a Skagen watch underneath this year.

- * Local jewellers on buy one get one half price offer.

A few friends of mine have Skagens and I think they're quite unusual, and nice watches. Nice and light, surprisingly slim, and nicely designed.. well worth the money!

I have an Ultrathin. Bought it to offset the Breitling.

It is a nice watch but doesn't get that much wrist time.

I used to own a few, (mainly from in flight duty free), and they were very nice. Be careful with the chain mail thin strap, one nick and the bloody thing is ruined. Apart from that, quite different, and stylish.
