Has anybody got any experience of them?
I'm thinking about purchasing one as an every day cheap watch.

Looking around the £150 mark so any other recommendations?

Thanks.

Slap 'Scandinavian Style' on anything and it seems to warrant a premium.

I guess you're looking at the clean round face one, I assume it's a quartz movement ?

I'd go for this if so:



Half the price with some half-arsed pedigree too.

They look nice enough - for a clean, functional dial you really can't get more spartan than this:



but there's so little information on the website that it's impossible to make a decision. How big is that watch, for example? Is it 35mm? 45mm? Who knows?

Assuming a 20mm lug width, it's about 40mm - which is going to wear quite large, especially if it's not particularly thin.

But that strap could be anywhere between 18 and 22mm.
