How to choose a men's watch — six steps

1. Set a budget. Decide what the watch may cost, and filter by price. Most watches here cost between DKK 1.500 and DKK 4.000. The automatic watches start at DKK 1.495; below that they are quartz. Reduced items are under sale with the previous price and the discount.
2. Choose a movement. Quartz runs on a battery, is very accurate and asks nothing of you day to day. Automatic is wound by your movements and has no battery — good for someone who wears the watch every day. Solar is quartz charged by light.
3. Find the size. Measure your wrist just above the bone. Under 16 cm, around 34–38 mm fits; 16–18 cm, around 38–42 mm; and over 18 cm, 42 mm and up. Also look at the lug-to-lug distance and the thickness if the watch needs to fit under a shirt cuff.
4. Think about water. 3 ATM withstands rain and splashes, 5 ATM a shower, 10 ATM swimming, and 20 ATM and above diving. If the watch is going in the water, choose dive watches or sports watches with a bracelet or rubber strap — a leather strap can take neither bathing nor swimming.
5. Choose strap or bracelet. A steel bracelet can take anything and is adjusted by removing links; a leather strap is warmer and lighter and suits a classic watch. Rubber and textile are for sport and summer.
6. Find the style. Classic watches go with a suit and the office, chronographs give a sporty look with a stopwatch, and sports watches and dive watches can take more. A Swiss Made watch is assembled and inspected in Switzerland.

If you are unsure, try the watch at home: you have a 99-day right of return from the day you receive it. Just wait to have the bracelet shortened until you are sure — once it is shortened, the 99-day right of return no longer applies, and if you withdraw within 14 days, we deduct the loss in value. You can also ask Nord, our assistant, or write to us.

What water resistance means

ATM, bar and metres say the same thing, but the figure is a pressure in a laboratory, not a depth you can dive to. As a rule, 3 ATM withstands rain and splashes from a hand basin, 5 ATM a shower, 10 ATM swimming and snorkelling, and from 20 ATM the watch can be used for diving. A leather strap can handle neither bathing nor swimming, whatever the watch itself can do. If the watch is going in the water, look for dive watches or sports watches with a rubber strap or bracelet, and read about care in how to look after your watch.

Delivery, returns and complaints

Delivery takes 2–3 working days from our own stock and 7–10 working days from our remote stock, counted from your order — the product page says where it ships from. We confirm your order within 24 hours. We only deliver in Denmark. Shipping costs 39 DKK, and the parcel is insured for the item's full value; in Kredsen, shipping in Denmark is free from Silver on orders over 799 DKK. The watch comes in a box, new and unused. See delivery.

You have a 14-day right of withdrawal and a 99-day return right from the day you receive the item — the 14 days fall within the 99. Start in the returns portal. You pay the return shipping yourself; if you use our insured return label, we deduct 39 DKK from the amount. From Gold in Kredsen it is free. The return right applies to items without signs of use, in the box with everything that came with it and any links that have been removed; if you withdraw within the 14 days and the item shows signs of use, we deduct the loss in value. Read more under returns.

If there is a fault, you have a 2-year right to complain under the Danish Sale of Goods Act — it is mandatory throughout the EU and applies to everything you buy from us. Open the case in the complaints portal before you send the watch — then you get a label, we pay shipping both ways, and we write to you once the watch has been examined.

Should I choose automatic or quartz for a men's watch?
