| I ordered this Skagen Chronograph, because I wanted a flat Chrono-watch with a leather strap. Since I'm wearing the watch for two weeks, I still like it and to me the price seemed cheap for the quality of the product. |

I have been looking for a new business watch for the past few months, and specifically wanted a watch that was thinner than the sports-style watches I already own. I also wanted multi-dials and a leather strap, and this watch immediately caught my eye. I bought this watch about 2 months ago and have been completely happy with it. It has exactly the look I wanted, and it's so light on my wrist that I sometimes forget I'm wearing it.
A few things to be aware of:
1. The watch may not be completely comfortable for someone with large wrists - the band does not move up and down where it attaches to the watch, so it doesn't lay flat. For a smaller wrist it's a good fit.
2. Given the leather strap and in light of other things I have read on the subject I am careful to keep the watch away from water. Day-to-day is fine, but I wouldn't wear it swimming, sailing, in the shower etc. Common sense, but still a consideration.
So if you're looking for a handsome, high-quality business-wear watch at a reasonable price you should definitely consider this watch or one of the similar Skagen designs. |

I love Skagen watches. This watch is no exception. Good construction, great quality of materials, and really nice leather in the band. It looks great and has a large face (for those of us over 40). The one gripe I have is that the design of the leather band's connection to the watch case does not allow the watch band to lay flat on my wrist. Maybe I have a larger, flatter wrist but this raises the watch off of my skin to the point that this watch fits better when it is sitting on the inside of my wrist - around the curve.
This is NOT a fatal flaw, just an annoyance. Otherwise it is a great watch. |

| This is an excellent watch and I'd buy one again. The only problem I've had is that the face fogs up in the rain. I now keep it well away from water and it works perfectly well. |

| This is a very nice, light weight and slim watch. Only draw back is that the strap is a little too stiff. |

| The watch is everything that was advertised. The face is large, clear, easy to read. The band is more stiff than others due to the fasteners, but I didn't find it to be a problem or to be uncomfortable and I consider myself to have small wrists. The materials on the face are more silvery than steel in color and its luminescence is strong and even so both hands are clear. My only criticism is that the three ancillary dials for day of the week, date and 24 hour clock are too small to be seen in the dark and the date is still tough to see in daylight. Overall, great watch, happy to have purchased it. |
