Icon20 Incoming! First rolex
Boys! First luxury wrist watch acquired! I tried it on in Rome this summer at their AD. The fluted bezel hit so hard. The gold really takes it to the next lvl, after trying it on I knew this configuration was the one for me.

Never imagined I would buy a TT Sky in my 4-5 years of wanting a Rolex. Pictures really don’t do it justice. The busy dial and complications are a W for me. Massive wrist presence vs other TT models I’ve considered. The RG Choco diamond DJ41 oyster was the alternative but I honestly found the proportions small vs the Sky.

My local AD laced me up 3 weeks ago after a number of drop ins. Took 4 months for me which is more than reasonable considering every AD says the Skydweller is scare in all metals. So far it’s been an awesome experience! Feeling Dj Khaled lvls of grateful

An excellent configuration - something about a black dial and yellow gold is just gorgeous! Congratulations and enjoy the heck out of it!

Most advanced Rolex complication, most clever use of the bezel, easiest (IMHO) GMT to read- what's not to like! A great first Rolex!
