Purely hypothetically but what would you choose given the chance between the 2?

beshannon · 1 March 2023, 02:08 AM

What is LHD?

tifosi · 1 March 2023, 02:11 AM

Neither

Left HanD.

Black SS SkyD for me.

I like the VTNR, but I would definitely prefer having a BLRO.

Driver8 · 1 March 2023, 02:19 AM

On the Pelagos LHD, the LHD stands for Left Hand Drive. In any event, it means left handed.

And because I'm NOT left-handed I voted for the SkyDweller.

Thanks, then I would want neither

Not an option in the poll.

Guppydriver · 1 March 2023, 02:27 AM

Man....

Very different watches (as in category).

Those with wrist smaller than 7in, I think would default to the destro.

That said, the Skydweller is in a different horological league and certainly is a more upscale reference with substantially greater wrist presence.

Unless you are in love with green, I'd say the Skydweller is the choice for most.

dafuture · 1 March 2023, 02:29 AM

I prefer the GMT. The SkyD is lovely, but a bit more heft than I prefer in that type of watch.

-94- · 1 March 2023, 02:58 AM

VTNR is my favourite Rolex so I voted for it!

Sky Dweller is something special and an horological landmark for Rolex. VNTR is something different for the sake of being different, essentially offering nothing new past the aesthetic. I suppose that in fairness you could say that the vast majority of new releases across the big brands are nothing more than new versions of the same thing.

Your watch, your money, your choice. Choice is good. We should be grateful for it.

JRell · 1 March 2023, 03:52 AM

Would vote neither. While I prefer the GMT and only like ceramic bezels, as a right hander I was forced to vote SD.

ltmgeller · 1 March 2023, 04:12 AM

Blue Skydweller, all day, everyday.

Crown on left side is more comfortable for sporty wearing not just looks. New first time selling left side watch.

You put it on the left side like normal, very good fitting watch.

Not for me I wouldn’t, it is to be worn on the right arm if I had it. To their own!

Yes! To their own no force like you said before. It’s beautiful watch on both wrists.

The force was what I would vote for based on my preference. You should wear it as you prefer of course!

Great feedback

Stan Cooper · 2 March 2023, 12:49 AM

I voted SS Sky-D, but only if your wrist can handle its size.

RJM25R · 2 March 2023, 02:32 AM

Skydweller in any dial/bracelet combination except white dial, in which case it would be the GMT with jubilee only

JPS · 2 March 2023, 07:10 PM

Good points

Linuxpenguins · 2 March 2023, 08:43 PM

SkyDweller 100%

1William · 2 March 2023, 10:35 PM

The SS Sky-Dweller is my favorite Rolex reference right now. You can not go wrong with any dial color or bracelet.

enjoythemusic · 2 March 2023, 10:49 PM

Since I'm not lefthanded the SkyD. Dad is a lefty and loves his VTNR.

Sky-Dweller is a special watch. No comparison between the two.
