I have had the Skagen Men's 809XLTTM Carbon Fiber Dial Titanium Watch for a few weeks now.  So far, no problems with cracking or scratching of any surfaces on the watch.  I must say, though, IT IS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL.  The pictures of the watch on-line really don't do it justice!  The way the light reflects off of the carbon fiber dial face is just amazing.

This watch is very slim, especially compared to a Steinhausen Chronograph and Zodiac Chronograph watch that I already own.  I LOVE THE LOOK OF IT.  You can hardly tell you are wearing it.

The watch band is similar to wearing a leather or fabric band, but since it is a chain-mail type material, it should last indefinitely, just like other metal watch bands.  no pulling of wrist hair here either.  Adjustment was simple, and putting it on or taking it off are simple!!

The only downsides to this watch are the fact that, at times, it may be difficult to actually read the sub-dials for Month, Day, and 24 hr. time.  It also isn't the brightest illuminated watch in the dark either after charging it in the light.  BUT I STILL LOVE THE LOOK!

This Skagen watch keeps perfect time.  Setting it up is relatively easy with the simple instructions!

I highly recommend it, and hope that I don't experience the watch dial/face cracking issues that have plagued a few others.

I also note that the dial size is true 40 mm.  A few other sites list it as anywhere from 35-38 mm, but it is indeed 40mm, which fits nicely on my wrist (which is rather slim for a 6'3" 210 lb. guy).  but due to the slimness of the thickness of this watch, it works perfectly.

Of course, AMAZON prices rock and are the best around!!
