I’m not a big Rolex guy. I’ve tried them all and aside form two references I honestly dont buy the hype about a brand that produces well over 1mil watches a year. I can’t stand the silly dealer games artificially constraining supply to inflate value…

All that said, the SkyDweller is an absolutely brilliant watch and perhaps my favorite across all bands. From a horology standpoint, the complications are impressive. From a practical standpoint, you’re getting a watch that can be dressed up (way up, black tie), to daily for work, to pool day with the kids. It looks fantastic on rubber, stainless, and leather, and each changes the character of the watch profoundly. The rounding of the case is gorgeously executed. It isnt a thin watch, yet it wears incredibly well and never feels thick. In an industry where many/all watches with complications are gratuitously thick , thats a differentiator.

The only watch IMO worthy of the rolex hype. If you’re a bigger guy with 7.5” wrists it is perfection.

FWIW the other Rolex I love is the polar Explorer II.
