Great choice. Did you go for the Sky Dweller on the leather strap? In which case Rubber B make a dedicated rubber strap for that reference which IMO looks great, and certainly doesn't cheapen it.

Yes, I ended up getting the Sky D on leather and have already ordered the Rubber B strap. Great minds think alike! Will post pics on both straps.

The Skydweller is a fine watch but it’s just too big in my view. Tried a couple on thinking it was the same case size as my DJ’s which is as large as I’d ever want to go, but I was wrong. It’s even bigger than a DJ2 so for me it’s a pass.
Now if they could get the SKD case on a diet, it would be a different story.
For me the GMT is the perfect size.

Here it is! I’m loving it so far! One pic in the sun and one in the shade. I haven’t swapped straps yet, but when I do I’ll add some more pics.
