Rolex Sky Dweller in 18k Everrose Gold
Went to my local AD today and found my all holy grail. I know it's not for everyone, and for most, it's a bit flamboyant, but for some god awful reason, I have absolutely fallen in love with it. It also happened to be my first time trying on the Sky Dweller, and now I absolutely am smitten.
Anyone else own the Sky Dweller and willing to comment? Should I cave in? I am also considering the black face on 18k white gold bracelet. A part of me still thinks that over 30k USD seems a bit much for a Rolex, as that is entering gravelly close or already there to perpetual calendar Pateks. Thanks for listening to me rant! |

Best looking Sky Dweller model right there in my opinion...
That one is definitely on my radar screen -- the contrast of the RG and the sand dial are amazing! |

I absolutely love the SkyD. It is my favorite model rolex currently. I literally love every pm variation, I prefer the RG with chocolate, the YG with champagne, and the WG with ivory. I want them all haha. The only other watch I love even close to the skyd is the glacier platty ddii. I say pull the trigger on this one as it's a no brainer. I'm bias though

A cool watch but not my favorite. I think the dial is too busy and I don't need the functions. The new DD 40, that is a different story and can be had for less dollars.

This watch just seems so over the top esp when you can buy a pretty good car at that price. :)

I have seen a rose gold models in various dealers but didn't get warm to it, 326938 was once my grail. If I ever buy a gold Rolex watch, Sky Dweller with Roman Dials will be my first choice
