Skagen Men's Two-Tone Mesh Bracelet Watch #233LGSC Review

I'd given up on watches, but my latest smartphone doesn't serve the purpose of a watch that well. My dad had given me a watch, but I didn't like it that much because it was very thick. That being the case I went looking for the thinnest moderately priced watch I could find.

Not that apparent from the pictures is the fact that the watch is thinner on the edges, making it look much thinner than it is while it is being warn. Overall I'd say the design is good, and it's a good looking watch, but I don't think anyone is going to confuse it for an expensive watch. The band was easy to adjust to the correct size, not requiring any tools. The clasp has two safety catches, and working them at first takes a bit of practice, but it's something you get used to.

Some have commented on its sturdiness, and I would simply say this is not designed to be an everyday rough and tumble watch. Wear it with your dressier cloths, and not when you're changing oil on the car, and it should be fine.

One final point. The first time I set it the watch didn't seem that accurate. It lost a minute or two fairly quickly. I set it ahead a minute, and then it hasn't lost that time in about a month. So accuracy is up in the air, but it does seem accurate at this point in time. Edit 11/1/09: It was accurate up through the change to DST, which I guess was about a month and a half. I'll know in six months whether it needs to be set in between DST changes. Update: It's now been 4 months since I set it, and it's within one minute of being correct (hard to be more precise due to the lack of a second hand).
