With all of us checking our cellphones every two minutes nearly 24-hours daily, it might not seem like wearing a watch is necessary or even helpful these days.

But for most men who do not wear any jewelry, wearing a watch is an important style element and an easy conversation starter.

Even for people with a few high-dollar watches in their drawers, you need an everyday option that is lightweight, durable, completely waterproof and sharply stylish.

For these priorities, we have the perfect slimline watch to recommend: the new 45-MM Skagen Havene. This is a bit wider and more masculine than the thinner styles of older Skagens.

Skagen of Denmark makes incredible-quality watches that are priced right and extremely durable. They are battery powered, so they do not go dead like a self-winding watch that will run out of juice if you do not wear it daily.

But the *best* part of Skagens?

They are some of the slimmest watches available at an price. The styles range from about 7-MM thick to about 9-MM thick for the Havene.

The Havene in brown is a seriously sexy timepiece, and is priced at $109. Also coming in black, these Havene styles have a leather band — but canvas, silicone and titanium mesh bands are also in the Skagen catalog.

For an ultralight and sexy new watch, these are a great choice.
