My wife loved the watch - until the crystal cracked down the middle  (w/o any shock or abuse) after just a couple of months.  Reaching Skagen is very hard - they want you to return it to the retailer which is hard when it's an online store that wants you to contact the manufacturer.

If you google for this "cracked crystal Skagen", you will see that many people have had this unfortunate experience - this a design/manufacturing problem for Skagen they do not seem to be addressing.  Given that they know it's a problem, they should not be charging for repairs!

so this went from a really nice gift to a dud in very short time.
