The watch is beautiful.  I love the face and thinness of Skagen watches. I purchased this watch after having bought another Skagen watch with a cool face, that I couldn't read after dusk.  The thin hands became invisible against the black face of the watch in a darkened room.

I also have trouble reading the face of this watch after dusk, but that's minor compared the problems I have had with the metal strap that comes with the watch.

It took me most of an evening trying to figure out how to make the clasp work.  After nearly an hour of reading the instructions in the tiny brochure; I searched the Internet and eventually came across a site that helped me understand what I was doing wrong.

So, now I am able to wear the watch, and I've received compliments about the watch, but I do have to pay attention to it, as I've had the strap come apart while on my wrist and dropped off my wrist onto the ground.  I've been fortunate enough to have had people spot the event and hand me back my watch.  This said, I don't believe I'd buy another Skagen watch with this metal clasp.

Skagen watches are cool, but the metal clasp on their metal bands could stand to be re-engineered.
