This is my second Skagen watch.  Had to buy a watch band adjustment tool, $2 bucks on ebay.  Took out some links,  but be very careful.  The crystal face is easy to scratch.  When i was removing the links for a proper fit, one end of the band wiped around the hit the face of the watch, even though the protector was still on the face.  My first Skagen watch had a flat face, this one has a convex face, so i'll most likely get more scratches in the future.  But it looks sharp.
