The History of Skagen Designs
In 1987, Henrik and Charlotte Jorst came to the United States
from their native Denmark to follow a dream: that of owning and
running their own business. Skagen Designs was founded by these
two natives of Copenhagen on the principle that beautifully
designed, high-quality objects can be created at reasonable
prices. The Skagen Collection of watches reflects the Jorsts'
creative Danish spirit with clean, elegant designs, skillful
craftsmanship and technical perfection. When you purchase a piece
from the Skagen Collection, you become part of an international
community of Skagen owners who believe in a philosophy of design
and manufacturing excellence.
Skagen Trend Spotting
In the market place, time never stands still and so our
innovation never sits idle. Our design team is on the pulse of
current fashions, with regular visits to design centers of the
world including Denmark, Switzerland,Italy, France, New York and
Hong Kong. We are never content to follow established trends. We
stay true to our classic design philosophy and interpret trends
accordingly. We observe, listen and innovate - all to create
lasting design pieces.
The Result
The production of such lasting design pieces often demands
special processes and tooling. These are often a challenge to
create; however, we are never satisfied with "close enough". We
continually push and fine-tune designs to stay true to our
standards. We know what we want and are not satisfied until the
design, material and workmanship are all just right. The result
of such hard work and dedication speak for themselves in the jaw
dropping enthusiasm and excitement created whenever anyone views
our product line.
Maintaining Your Skagen Watch
* Ensure that the crown is returned to the normal operating
position before the watch comes in contact with water.
* Do not take your watch into a Hot Tub or Sauna.
* Under normal conditions, the seals in your Skagen watch will
deteriorate and may need to be replaced every 2-3 years.
* Have your Skagen watch serviced by an official service center.
All Skagen watches operate with standard batteries. When
necessary, any jeweler can replace them for you. Different models
are water resistant to varying degrees. Please refer to the back
of your watch for the water resistant rating.
How To Set The Time And Date
* Pull the crown out to the middle position.
* Rotate the crown to set date
* Pull the crown out to fully extended position and rotate crown
to set desired time.
* Push the crown back to its normal position. The date and time
are now set.
Cleaning Your Skagen Watch
Skagen suggests the following solutions for cleaning metal and
crystal surfaces:
* 3:1 solution of ammonia based window cleaner to water
* 4:1 solution of rubbing alcohol to water.
* Do not use soap products.
These suggested solutions will evaporate cleanly from metal and
glass surfaces. Soap will leave residue behind when dry.
To clean the case and crystal:
Moisten a soft cloth with one of the above solutions. Gently
wipe the case and crystal clean. Be careful not to put too much
stress on the crystal as you clean. *NEVER immerse or soak the
case/crystal portion of the watch, regardless of water resistance
rating. Moisture could seep past the seals over time.
To clean the band or strap:
Skagen soft mesh bands are easily adjustable. Simply insert a
small screwdriver or similar tool into the clasp. Lift up the
clasp without applying pressure to the thin pin across the clasp
and move to desired position. Snap closed securely. Make sure the
clasp is set in one of the indentations on the back of the band.
Link bands are completely adjustable anywhere watches are
serviced.
Skagen suggests the following practices for cleaning metal,
rubber and leather surfaces:
* Metal watchbands
Dip a cotton swab in the above solution, and gently rub it into
the soiled portion of the band. For more intricate mesh bands,
you may want to use a soft bristle toothbrush or nailbrush. Be
sure to cover the case of the watch during this process so as not
to soak it. For stubborn soil, you may want to bring it to a
jeweler for a professional cleaning.
* Rubber watchstraps
Simply wipe them down with a damp, soft cloth. Avoid soaps and
solvents as they may dry or crack the plastic.
* Leather watchstraps: Top Grain
Top grain leather can be characterized by its smooth, somewhat
shiny appearance. To clean this type of leather, follow the same
procedure as with the rubber watchband. Simply wipe it clean with
a damp cloth, using water only. You may want to use leather
conditioner or a small a of hand lotion to keep the leather
supple over time. Top grain leather may develop a milky "haze" if
left alone for extended periods. This can simply be wiped away or
removed with leather conditioner.
* Leather watchstraps: Nubuck
This is essentially full grain leather with the top layer shaved
off, leaving a flat, smooth finish. A product called a "nubuck
eraser" can be found at better shoe repair shops. It will help to
remove most light stains and debris from nubuck.
