The Skagen Falster Gen 6 smartwatch has been launched in India carrying a steep price tag, and an impressive array of features. The Skagen Falster 6 series is based on the Gen 6 smartwatches from Fossil. However, the Fossil Gen 6 adopts a slightly different approach as far as the design is concerned. To recall, the Falster Gen 6 Smartwatch made its debut for Android and iOS users back in August 2021. It is also the first smartwatch to come with the Snapdragon Wear 4100+ platform, which was launched in 2020.
According to the popular watch and jewelry brand, the Snapdragon Wear 4100+ platform offers radically upgraded performance. Aside from this, Skagen claims that it minimizes power consumption.

These include black case, charcoal, and silver-tone color options. Furthermore, the straps use high-quality stainless steel mesh, leather, and silicone.
