I alternate back on forth with these 2. Lately I’ve been wearing the Wg ivory dial. Love the Sky D!

I tried on the blue yesterday. I was kind of solid on black, but I wear blue jeans all the time, so this one would work as well.

I am sold on the Oyster, as it takes some of the bling away (I'm not a blingy guy).

The comparison pic is my BB monochrome that I love. 7.5" wrist and the SkyD works well, I think.

It's just a waiting game. (I'm getting too old to wait much longer. Haha)

Just picked up an oyster bracelet from the AD. Good to have as an alternative to the jubilee. Took about a week to come in and cost around $1600 after tax.

I let it go because I also convinced myself that it was difficult to maintain and needed to be worn consistently in order to avoid setting it. I traded it in towards a platinum Daytona. Eventually, I let the Daytona go. I really fell in love with the black dial Sky D on Oysterflex strap and ended up with it.

What is interesting is that once I got the three command ring setting positions down, how much my perception of setting the watch changed. It is my favorite Rolex watch. The setting, literally is what sets it apart from my pov. There is no watch I own that is easy to set. Time is easy to set without the question of AM or PM. Date is quick adjust as it can be set forward or backwards. The month is easy to set by just spinning the date setting. No watch I own is anywhere near as slick.

The Oyster flex strap with the Glide Lock clasp really adds to the whole backage making it instantly adjustable and extremely comfortable and also a bit more low key. I truly love my Sky Dweller.



My idea of perfection!!

I share the same sentiment.

No other watch packs all those functions into a single package, makes it so easy to set, guarantees a decent level of WR, is automatic winding, and built to Rolex’s reliably robust standards.

A true grab-and-go, set-and-forget watch for the world traveller.

Was too nice to pass up. This is my favorite color combo of the entire sky dweller lineup. The sky dwellers are my favorite of all Rolexes now!
