Eye-catching timepiece
596388
While doing some casual shopping, I ran across this Skagen in a watch shop. Out of an entire shop full of watches, this one immediately caught my attention. It has an attractive face, which includes a day dial, date dial, and 24-hour dial. These are laid out in a fairly unique and interesting style. Rather than three same sized/colored dials, each one is slightly different. Though such a difference can clash with certain designs, this particular Skagen design looks fantastic. The material also works very well. For this particular watch, the classic titanium design not only looks fantastic, but the mesh-titanium band is great. Not only is it light, but it maintains a cool temperature and allows the wrist to breathe. Compounded with the color of the titanium watch, the entire face and band is eye-catching! I have received many compliments and closer-looks while wearing this watch.

The band adjusts easily enough, but it can be a little difficult on occasion to unlock it to adjust. Adjusting on the fly could be quite difficult unless there is a small tool available to unlock the adjusting mechanism. Also, the 24-hour dial is not something necessary or tremendously helpful for those who are able to easily adjust 12-hour to 24-hour time. The only other minor issue with the watch is how noticeable the face glows in the dark. Going with the minimalistic design, the hour-markers and arms are extremely thin and can be difficult to see for people with less than excellent vision. Further, there is no discernible difference between each hour marker, so if the watch is off the wrist it can be difficult to tell what time it really is without holding the watch. On the wrist, it works well enough, though.

For the price, Skagen has produced an excellent watch. It is affordable, sleek, and eye-catching. It is extremely comfortable to wear, and will be on the wrist almost immediately after taking it out of the box. This particular watch can be worn while dressed up, or dressed down and looks and works great in any situation.

This is a really fun and stylish men's casual watch. I love the uniqueness of the clear crystal display. It is fascinating to view the movements of the watch while it is running. It does look slightly different in person. The blue numbers on the dial are an electric blue (they are luminescent and glow in the dark), and the gold colored stainless steel on the bezel is a very rich gold tone (it almost looks silver in the picture on the product page, but it is definitely a deep gold in color in person). The striking blue of the numbers combined with the rich brown leather band makes a nice contrast. It is the perfect watch to wear with a pair of jeans. The watch is also self-winding. The only thing I think they could have improved on is the complicated clasp on the leather band. It is designed to function similar to a metal band instead of the traditional, simple clasp usually found on leather bands. Fortunately, the leather band would be easy to replace/change if that is the wearer's preference. Given that the current price on Amazon is under $150, it is a pretty incredible value for the money, considering the overall quality and look of this timepiece. I think it would make an awesome gift, as well.

This watch is one of the nicest looking watches that I have seen.
It certainly draw the attention of people when I wear it.
It is worth its cost.

Simply put, for the price they are charging, this watch is amazing!  The color is truly unique.  Depending on what type of light is hitting the watch (i.e. sunlight, fluorescent, or incandescent), it ranges from navy blue to deep bluish purple.  The outer ring and the dial appear to be slightly different shades from each other (but VERY compatible).  The colors are rich and brilliant.  This provides a visual interest to the watch which draws your attention to it.  I have a smaller arm/wrist, and the size of this watch is perfect.  It's SO nice to have a men's watch that doesn't look like the gigantic watches that most jewelry counters have on display these days.  The watchband width is very proportional to the watch size, and complements the watch nicely.  The only complaint I have is that the clasp is very, very difficult to undo.  In fact, the only way I can get this watch off is to use a paperclip to pry the clasp apart.  Otherwise, this watch is worth every penny and then some.  I've had the watch for 24 hours now, and from what I can tell, it has kept very accurate time, at most losing maybe half a second during that period of time.  This is my first Invicta watch, and likely won't be the last.  You will love it!

This is an attractive, stylish watch. Once you figure out how to clasp and unclasp the band you'll feel like a genius as you watch time ticking away. I like that it runs on kinetic energy instead of a battery. I have had it for days and it keeps chugging along without me having to shake my wrist. Of the four watches I own this one has the most comfortable band. One minor drawback is that you can't just glance at it for the time but you have to focus to see the hands, but this might be a godsend to increase visual acuity. :)
If you zoom in on the picture, you'll see a VII at twelve o'clock instead of an XII. My wife pointed out that it has no twelve on the watch face. She did it to deflate my ego.

Casual and sporty, yet sophisticated looking.  This watch is eye-catching without looking like you're trying too hard to get attention.  Build seems to be of high quality.  A good value at price paid.

Gorgeous watch with connoisseur level craftsmanship, as any true automatic Swiss piece should have.  Yet, technological prowess does not overpower American rugged identity in this watch, as both seemingly incongruous aspects not only coexist, but complement one another.  The day/date function is utilitarian and highly rare, even among high end watches.  Yet, it blends into the watch's face in a way that does not distract from the face's design and its flow into the wristband as an entire unit.

A quick glance at this watch and you'd swear you were looking at a Rolex GMT.  The dial, calendar bubble and blue bezel are magnificent.  As a timepiece, the self winding mechanism compliments the beauty of a sweep second hand that moves with a fluid grace as opposed to click-click-click of an electronic movement.  Once again Invicta scores.  This is my fifth Invicta, now surpassing Bulova as the brand most represented in my collection.  Number one is my Movado Esperanza and Invicta holds the next 3 spots.  For the price, this is a superb addition to the amateur's collection.

This watch is exceptionally handsome. It is not gaudy. It is a basic chronograph watch which draws the eye. The movement is remarkably accurate. I often check with [...] and the time does not vary by so much as a fraction of a second! For the money, this watch is an excellent buy and it looks like a timepiece costing hundreds more. Indeed, I recommend it. ~Paul~

This is one beautiful, well designed watch that looks imposing at first glance, but after less than 10 minutes of reading the included operation sheet, you'll master all the buttons and this wonderful Chronograph will do many things for you.

As mentioned elsewhere, this is a really Large Watch, but I'm a Big Guy and with the easy removal of a couple links in the bracelet, to remove the slack, it fits perfectly and it's a really good looking watch that I'm proud to wear.

I was afraid at first when I saw it was gold plated, but it looks as good in person as the picture that's here on this page. It's 18K gold plated on a stainless steel bracelet and it looks really cool.

My old watch just has the time & date but this wonderful watch has that and the tachymeter too, I'll really be a nightmare now, timing everything! heehee

This is a wonderful, beautiful, outstanding timepiece that would make a wonderful gift for yourself or someone you care about and no one would ever guess what a great deal you got on it.

It's A Winner!

Beautiful timepiece. It is not inexpensive but, in my opinion, worth every penny.

The colors of the watch face and band go really well together. I have received numerous compliments (but I never told anyone it was a Timex!). It can be worn with jeans and a t-shirt or slightly more dressy with khakis and a button down. The band on the watch is a little stiff at first, but loosens up after wearing it for a few wearings. Also, if you are a light sleeper, you might want to leave the watch in another room at night. The ticking in not deafening, but it can be heard over some of my other watches. Overall, you cannot go wrong with a Timex for the price!

I can't say enough good things about this watch!  Great styling; solid construction; perfect size for a medium-sized man's wrist.  It synched with the national atomic clock signal broadcast from Fort Collins, CO as soon as I took it from the box and exposed it to direct light.  It was pretty trippy watching the clock hands spin forward to the *precise* time. I leave it in a sunny spot when I'm not wearing it to make sure the battery is always "topped off."  I'm very pleased with this sophisticated timepiece.

This watch is beautiful.  I've gotten several compliments on it already.  It appears well made, and it keeps time accurately.  Also, it arrived on time and was well packaged.

If you have a bold personality and like a little classy bling now and then, this watch is for you! This watch is not only beautiful, it's practical and a lot of fun to watch the mechanical gears at work. Artists and others, still close to their childhoods, will like this novelty time piece. Be aware that this time piece is not for wall flowers or the retiring. It will be noticed and you will be asked about it. A great conversation piece. Contemporary styling combined with a completely exposed watchworks. I've found this to be an entirely dependable and accurate time piece. The only draw back for some buyers is that it is mechanical and must be wound. I happen to love mechanical watches so it's a plus.
