It certainly is a bit top heavy. Not a daily wearer for me - maybe a couple of times a week and on special outings. The rest of the time I find my Batman more comfortable. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Couldn't one replace the white dial for a blue dial at RSC? I think the fee for the dial swap would be much less than the premium you'd pay for a blue SkyD?

One more comment, and most folks here wont’ agree with it- the longer I wait for the watch the more I think I may like wanting the watch more than I may like actually owning the watch. If I’m not alone in this, Rolex’s shortage issue may backfire on them.

For sure there is always that risk but if you like blue dials then this really is a stunner, the sunburst effect really pops. It is a top heavy watch but you quickly get used to it...

It is top heavy. Wore my SD yesterday for a special day and was happy to put my Batman back on today for some pool action. As it relates to color (in the SD case white, black and blue) I really have come to the belief that there is no perfect or ideal color. I think the white as a whole is more elegant. I think the blue pops really nicely, maybe more so than white or black. And the black - well most of us with the sports models have been quite happy with black for decades. In other words you can’t go wrong. PS - wearing my white SD on Easter Sunday made it the perfect color for me. God bless you all. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I had both The white dials very underrated but if you can wait definitely go blue

I haven’t seen many SS sky D incomings. I’ve been told by more than 1 AD that Rolex considers the blue face a rare watch themselves and many dealers get 1-2 a year (supposedly). You will wait a long time my friend.
Why not get the white one, sell or trade it in and oay like 6k more and get the blue one from a grey. You won’t regret it and can take advantage of a premium on a new white face. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I would wait, the blue face will be worth it...not really a fan of the white dial on this reference.

I love the white. Was offered the white but decided to wait for blue. Either way you will love it. My blue brother says hello

I am convinced the beauty of the white dial cannot be properly illustrated in pictures. I have not seen the Blue, but if it is the same colour/effect as the blue DJ36, it is beautiful, but white is nicer.

I had my choice of all three colors and went with white. Honestly I don't understand the blue fascination nor Rolex' desire to make it scarce. To them it's just dye.
