SKANDINAVIAN STYLE, November 5, 2010
This review is from: Skagen Denmark Womens Watch Steel Two-Tone on Mesh #233XSGSC (Watch)
A BEAUTIFUL WATCH WHICH I SAW ADVERTISED HERE IN AUSTRALIA FOR $199! WHEN I SEARCHED FOR IT ON AMAZON I WAS DELIGHTED BY THE PRICE AND THEN WHEN IT ARRIVED I FELL IN LOVE WITH IT STRAIGHTAWAY! SO ELEGANTLY SIMPLE AND YET SUCH A LOVELY CLEAR DIAL.MY ONLY COMPLAINT IS THAT IT IS A LITTLE TRICKY TO DO UP AND I'M AFRAID I MIGHT LOSE IT ONE DAY IF I INADVERTENTLY FAIL TO CLICK IT ON PROPERLY. HOWEVER, THIS WOULD NOT HAVE DETERRED ME FROM BUYING IT AND HOPEFULLY, I'LL BE WEARING IT FOR YEARS TO COME!

Good watch, excellent value, October 20, 2010
This review is from: Skagen Denmark Womens Watch Steel Two-Tone on Mesh #233XSGSC (Watch)
I think I researched nearly every Skagen watch before I finally decided on this one. I wanted a two-tone Skagen for its simple design, easy-to-read face, and low profile. I wasn't so sure about the mesh band, after reading a lot of critical reviews about difficulty figuring it out, sizing it, and keeping it securely fastened. I have to say the instruction booklet left out a few key points, so it took longer than it should have to figure out how to make the band smaller and then lock it properly. The one time I didn't lock it correctly, I almost lost the watch--a problem several reviewers reported with this particular clasp design. However, if you study the clasp and how it works, it becomes easier to fasten the watch securely. Sizing the band is another hurdle, but reading the directions helps. Once the band is adjusted for size, the clever clasp locks it into place. This is a good, practical timepiece that goes anywhere, and an excellent value overall. Would I buy this one again? I'm not sure that I like it that much, which is why I gave it four stars rather than five.

Diggin' this watch!!, August 7, 2010

I got this watch because I loved the mesh band and the gold and silver mixed together. Although its missing a second hand like most Skagens, I wear it all the time. It's especially nice to wear on more formal occasions.
