I have been using Skagen watches for 8 years now and always get compliments. I like that they are thin. Although I've always had metal bands, I tried this vibrant color with a silicone band. The hair on the hand does not pull, does not slip. I miss the day of the week and day of the month features that my previous Skagens had, but these are aftermarket watches and cost less than half the price of the others. There are no scratches on the glass either.
