Skagen Denmark is part of a bigger brand family, Skagen Designs Ltd. In many ways, Skagen has put Denmark on the map as being a nation of creatives. Skagen has made a name for itself because, unlike Rolex, Omega, Patek Philippe, and their likes, it has never tried to get a hold of the premium watch market. Everyone involved with the luxury watch niche does realize that it is indeed a niche sector. Skagen has introduced the mastery of watchmaking to the masses without making it unaffordable for most people. Like Skagen Denmark, Skagen Designs Ltd. is also known for bringing top-notch design and craftsmanship to the world of fashion and personal accessories.
History of Skagen Denmark watches
Henrik Jorst and Charlotte Jorst came to the United States in 1989 with a dream. Their vision of business was always grounded in the principle of simplicity. Their philosophy was simple and very effective. The Jorst couple was sure of the fact that premium designs and materials can be brought to market in a way that makes it affordable for all. With this vision, they founded Skagen Designs Ltd. With their business, price and quality were never directly proportional.
The influence of Denmark
Henrik and Charlotte were very proud of their Danish roots. They sincerely believed that the Danish culture has a lot to offer to the world, and they were not wrong. Danish goods and products can be defined with three words: robust, simple, and beautiful. All Skagen Denmark watches carry forward this legacy.
The brand is named after a Danish town, Skagen. Skagen continues to be one of the most picturesque towns in Denmark. The town of Skagen is a major inspiration behind the design and aesthetic of the brand. Kattegat and Skagerrak are two major water bodies around the town. The brand’s logo is directly inspired by these two water bodies.
Skagen under the Fossil Group
Skagen Denmark is not a Danish company, though Danish culture lies at its heart. It was established in 1989 in the United States of America. The market of Skagen is spread across continents – from Europe to Asia to Oceania. Among the different headquarters, Skagen Hong Kong’s head office has been very successful in spreading business across the globe. Its lucrative business model was impressive to another watch giant, the Fossil Group. Presently, it operates under the Fossil Group as a subsidiary.
Skagen Smartwatches
The market has been dominated by fusion smartwatches. Its wave is expected to last a lot longer, as even some premium companies are beginning to participate in this sector for the young consumer.
Skagen has also been striving to join the debate about the best wearables available. Skagen smartwatches are easy to use and customize, with a variety of digital and analog features.
Skagen smartwatches are constantly developing from one model to the next. They maintain the good elements while responding to market feedback. The new Skagen Falster 3 is a fantastic option.
