The Skagen Falster is the Company's First Android Wear Product
References: skagen & fastcodesign
Skagen has released many hybrid smartwatches that offer the basic functionality of a smart wearable while still adhering to the company's minimalist philosophy, but the Skagen Falster is the first watch from the company to offer more than just the basics. The watch is an Android Wear product, meaning that it can run apps, play and store music, and check messages while still offering up the notifications and activity tracking of a more basic model.
The Skagen Falster still falls in line with the Danish company's design ideas. Its watch face is little more that a plain black circle. One of the models has a silver finish, but in either case the face is relatively staid. The company offers different band colors to add some personality to the watches, but even these bands are typically monochromatic.
