Very nice watch, love the size, shape, colors. I'm finding the instructions somewhat lacking (other than the description on this site where it says "standard battery"), and I agree with the previous post about the date being really hard to read because, like the instructions, is very small - you almost have to be intuitive regarding what is on the dials and look at the close-up on this site to comprehend them without a magnifying glass. Had some trouble with the clasp as well, but finally got it - note: when loosened, DO NOT LET IT SLIDE OFF. It took forever to put it on again correctly. Also, skagen.com is down at this point. perhaps I'm being overly optimistic, so I hope things work out.
