Finally got my Skydweller!
Took a few months but yesterday I got TWO calls from two different ADs that the 326933 white dial came in. What are the odds? Picked it up this morning and even got a little swag!

My first Rolex at 58. Sold my company and decided it should recognize my 23 years of dedicated service with a Skydweller LOL

Thanks for the advice and guidance some of you offered me about going grey or waiting

Thanks! Yea I love everything about it. It's not an iconic Rolex at this point, but I wanted something that could be an every day watch and work with a t shirt or a suit. I know it's a bit lazy but I like not having to fix the date 6 times a year and having a quick view of my home time when traveling

7 1/4" circumfrence with 2.5" top width. It fits good and there is still room. 7" would probably also fit comfortably, I'm guessing

Would you guys say it's personal preference in terms of SkyD on wrist sizes.

I think I have a small wrist size, and I thought it wore just fine when I tried it on at an AD, though probably the largest I could wear.

This is me wearing a 42mm

Absolutely. If you like how it fits then that's what matters. I was just assuming it might be uncomfortable below 7" but I was guessing

Comfort wise, it felt Ok, heavy of course.

But to your point, I wonder if it would look awkwardly big.

Good for you! I was 59 when I got my first Rolex after working for 35 years I rewarded myself with the AK first and a few months later the DJ41. Never too old to get your first Rolex. Congrats and enjoy that baby..

I am 58 and bought a Sky Dweller recently... is it a 58 thing? :)

My first Rolex too.

Congratulations - it looks terrific. It's a lovely complication, so clever.
