Skagen 958XLSL Watch Alternatives

Skagen 958XLSL Watch Alternatives

After watching the movie Drive, featuring Ryan Gosling, I thought the watch he wears was really stylish. The original watch in the film was a special model of Patek Philippe which isn’t available for sale, but if it did exist in real life then it would cost many thousands of dollars. So I looked online to find other alternative style watches which have a similar minimalist, classic design. One of the closest alternatives is the SKAGEN 958XLSL which is almost like a Drive movie watch replica (well, it’s very similar) but this watch is no longer in production either and is sold out everywhere online.

SKAGEN Men’s 958XLSL

The silver face and the small second dial makes this really stylish and a very similar alternative to the Patek Philippe Drive watch. The style looks pretty much identical. This is a slim watch and approx 39mm width. I’ve found other alternative Skagen (and other brands) styles which I’ve listed below.

 

 

 

 

Skagen Signatur Quartz Titanium SKW6419

This is a slim design and it’s similar but without the small second dial. It has a case size of 40mm. Analog quartz movement. Water resistant to 30m (100ft). So it withstands splashes but it’s not suitable for swimming.

Skagen Mens Signatur – SKW6391

Similar to the Drive style watch with a brown strap, 40mm wide. 7mm thick. Water resistant to 50m (165ft). This is a very handsome sleek and masculine watch.

This watch is costs a bit more but has the small dial on the face and shares similarities with the watch featured in Drive. I tried a Raymond Veil on recently and it was extremely good quality and well made. A very classic, but cool watch brand.

  • Stainless-steel round case

VW VOID Watches 


Another alternative brand to Skagen, with similar minimalist styling is VW VOID.  This model is the PKG01-SI/BL/WH. The PKG01 is a straightforward, slim timepiece with a minimalistic aesthetic. Within the stainless steel case is a Japanese made Miyota GM10 movement; this design driven watch is made to last. Following the modernistic design principle that form follows function, every detail of the PKG01 has been thought of.

Less is more has never been more evident than when looking at this minimalist wristwatch from Rossling & Co. Set in a 40mm stainless steel case, this Swiss Quartz watch features a simple white face with stainless steel notches in place of numerals. What really stands out, however, are the striking blue hands and subdial. The two, combined with the unique tweed strap, make it a striking and fun piece for all kinds of wear.
