Very modern, but collectible Skagen, all titanium with real carbon-fibre dial. When I got this, the crystal was smashed, apparently a common thing with Skagens. Also a bad scratch to the bezel. I phoned around for replacement crystals and was quoted up to $70, so decided to do it myself. After removing all the tiny bits of broken crystal, I then measured for a new one, but found I had an old broken quartz pocket watch with the right size crystal. I then decided to sand down and polish the scratched bezel, which took a long time to do. I now have a unique Skagen with black anodised case and band, but polished titanium bezel. Looks good, don't you think?
Job well done, looks great :-)
