Skagen Aaren Men's Watch or Women's Watch, Silicone Watch for Men or Women
E**E
Thin, comfortable, and bright.
I have been wearing Skagen watches for over 30 years now. I bought my second after the one I had worn for years disappeared at a friends of hte library sale. I loved that watch, in large p[art because it was so thin and light that you could hardly tell you were wearing it. SAince Fossil bought the company, they have not been as thin, and I wish Amazon would put thickness back in the descriptions because that is the dimension I used when I searched for watches. That said, this is not as thin as the old Skagens, some of which were 3mm thick, and many around 5-6mm. This watch is 8 mm, which is still thinner than most of the current line, but twice as thick as the old watches. Because it has an aluminum case it is very light. I was surprised to see this described as a unisex watch, given the size, but it does work. My wrists seem to be on the thin side, jusging by my having to wear most watches on the last hole, but it does work for me. It fits my wrist and is comfortable, and at this size is something of a statement piece. I prefer Skagen's mesh bands to silicone, but do like that it is color coordinated.. which is all that has stopped me from replacing the band with one of their mesh bands, which in my opinion, are the best fitting, most comfortable watch bands available. I live in the tropics, so having flow through mesh means more to me than it does most people. The silicone band is comfortable, except when it is 80-90 degrees, which it often is in Hawaii. I may replace it before summer, but it works fine at this time of year and is attractive with the watch.

Nice watch
Watch looks nice and works well. Band is very comfortable. If you have owned Skagen before you will enjoy.

Obsessed with Aarens evidently?
My wife and I own 2 Skagen Aarens each and we love these watches. They are exceptional looking--especially for the price. They're light weight and easy-to-forget-you're-wearing as you go throughout your day. The silicone is high-quality and super-comfortable on the wrist. In the women's size, there is a bundle you can find online for a grey case and five bands; I bought this for my wife and now she has endless color combinations with a pink, blue and the aforementioned grey case. I own the men's 41mm blue and red model and love them. In addition to my two Skagen Aarens, I own a solar Skagen Sol Espresso--which is my favorite watch of all-time and usually only reserved for when my wife and I go out on a date. My two Aarens are worn daily pretty much and are holding-up great. I recommend you purchase a dedicated toothbrush natural hand soap, Q-tips and isopropyl alcohol for cleaning the silicone and crystal--and get yourself a watch case for $20 if you don't own one yet--good investment for protection. LOL, I just remembered that I even bought my daughter the women's light blue Aaren for her 25th b-day, so that again tells you how much I like these watches... great watches for the price... scored all of mine in the $50 to $63 range.

Scandinavian Style Minimalist Watch
Nice no fuss style watch for casual wear. Would be nice if it was at least 100m water resistance so you wouldn't need to worry in the shower or pool but you get what you pay for and your paying for style over capability here.

Amazon shipped watch with dead battery
I've had several of these watches and they are good looking and very resistant to abuse. However, I purchased one from Amazon about 1 year ago and the battery only lasted a year. This time, Amazon shipped a watch with a dead battery . Apparently these sit in warehouses for long periods of time.

Solid Watch from a Solid Company
I've bought a few watches from Skagen. They're very well made. There are a lot of companies who provide a more minimalist wrist watch- but those ones in my experience are often cheaply made and poor quality.Skagen watches for me have held their function for a long time. I bought this one in black to replace another one I had for a decade. This one is easy to read and sleek. I like that the band is made of a rubber material. It also fits well and offers a good range of sizes so you're not stuck in-between sizes, which is rarer than you'd think.Overall, you can wear these to high-octane CEO meetings for million dollar deals, or down to the bar for the Detroit Lions game with your buddies. All around classic.

Cool looking watch!
Not one to wear bright colors, but this watch is a nice complement to spring/summer wardrobes. Especially wearing casual short sleeve shirts with colorful motifs, love the blue thin watch! I have several Skagen watches and love each one for its simplicity, style and reasonable pricing (which allows me to have several to choose from depending on what I wear). Highly recommend!

Sorprendente Reloj Azul
Una maravilla por parte de Amazon, fue muy rápida la entrega y servicio. Ya tenia algunos años que quería tener esta marca pero siempre me decidía por un automatico de marca de antaño, la verdad este es un reloj de cuarzo muy bonito, cómodo y moderno. El único detalle es que no tiene luminicencia y fecha en este modelo. El color azul excelente. No hace ningún ruido el segundero, al ajustar la hora, el segundero se hackea y la corea de silicona de calidad se puede quitar sin problemas, ya que tiene un gancho casi oculto. Compra muy recomendable.

Lindo.
Veio rápido, pena que não atualizou o rastreamento e tá dando problema até hoje com os sistemas da Amazon e da empresa de entrega

Great timepiece
I now own 3 of these watches, very comfortable to wear and they add a pop of colour to any outfit.Be careful changing the battery as its quite easy to damage the internal mechanism
