Couple things to think about:
1. If you consider the SD4K to be top heavy, you may not like the thickness of the Skydweller either. I think it looks great on you, but it is on the larger side.
2. I think the Sub would be redundant, but the Skydweller would fill a really nice place in your collection (dressy watch, white dial, etc)
3. You'll find the Skydweller to be much harder to come by in the future.

I think the Skydweller is the pick regardless, but IMO it's easy once you factor in the SD4K in your collection

The SkyD in white is the all-round watch from Rolex. You can dress up or down and it has an awesome movement providing GMT and Annual Calendar complications. What's not to love?

True point.

This a good example of how lighting plays "tint-changing games" with the white dials. Amazing.

Sky D. I’m hoping to get the TT Sky D but would take anything but PM.

I have a similar sized wrist and I think the SkyD fits just fine. I would make sure to get a snug fit though since it is a bit top heavy.

It looks good in your photos. I love mine (black dial). One of the best they have ever made.

They are all nice but I would go blue with white as a close second..

HogwldFLTR · 15 November 2020, 09:09 PM

OP, the first photo makes it look too large for you. I got rid of mine just because of the size. No sense in owning a watch that doesn't look right!!!

The SkyD will bring balance and variety to the collection. The Sub is more redundant given the SD4K - which I bought and sold because it was too top heavy. The Skyd, while large, wears much better.
