I have worn only Skagen watches for the last 15 years, and I never get tired of them.  I wasn't sure about the band on this one since I usually get the flat mesh one, but the band looks very nice.  Great price.  This has the second hand, which is a definite plus.  I really like the clasps on the mesh bands -- easy on, easy off, very secure.  I have never had a Skagen clasp fail me -- even on watches that I have worn 7+ years.  After wearing every day for 7 years, my old Skagen's crystal was pretty scratched up, but worked perfectly.  Now I have a Skagen for work and one for camping/boating.

UPDATE:  Just realized how much I love this watch so decided to update my review.  I have had my watch over a year, wear it almost every day, and still love it.  And, I am hard on watches -- gardening, home projects, wash dishes, clean pool, etc.  I just throw it in my purse at night when traveling.  Still looks good.  No major scratches.  And, I have no problem reading the time with my 64 year old eyes.
