This design looks like the dial of Milgauss.

That outline of a full dial is what is shown when a page is loading on the Rolex website. I don't think that is any indication of what the new Sky-Dweller will actually look like.

If it is a sky-dweller then one can fairly assume that it will be a watch with multiple time zones (hence the triangular indicator) and most possibly a chrono function that will time a flight.....
One might reasonably expect a date function.
It is going to be a huge surprise and really Rolex is changing so fast it is hard to keep up. For such a stick in the mud reputation it has in the last few years made some major steps forward in different models and designs.
I still expect that there will be some more newbies: e.g. a ceramic bezel no-date Submariner.

White on white? Not sure Toph.

Bill, I'm starting to lean that way myself. From the position of the triangle it could be pointing to a sub-dial of some sort.

Did someone say ceramic no date Submariner?

Dan2010 · 6 March 2012, 09:54 AM

Wonder who will be the first with some Dweller on Dweller action............................................ .......................Adding Sea Dweller and Sky Dweller models to their collection.

MK25toLife · 6 March 2012, 10:09 AM

A white bezel tho?

EDIT: Nevermind people are saying it's a dial

MoBe · 6 March 2012, 10:19 AM

How about a CaveDweller model and we can nickname it the Troglodyte.

bodybump · 6 March 2012, 10:24 AM

For now lets have a drink guys..

andrew79 · 6 March 2012, 10:41 AM

You can put whatever you want in there though so it doesn't tell us anything.

The red triangle is on the bezel which isn't shown in the picture. The numbers are either part of the dial or it has two bezels. Hmmmm.

Don't bet on it.

SUPERDOC · 6 March 2012, 12:41 PM

The more I see it, the more I am going to go on record stating my prediction:

I think that this is a sub-dial... That will be the date indicator..

Another dial may be a second time zone and a final one the second hand...or dare I hope for a moon phase....

Either way... i say the teaser is the date subdial!

And "sky-master" is too Omega-ish... Sky-dweller all the way....

It may be a sub-dial...but I don't think it can be the date. The radius of the dial is too small to fit 31 numbers (or 15 if only the even are shown).

Who know? It's fun guessing!

TheVTCGuy · 6 March 2012, 03:47 PM

Is it Thursday yet!?!?!?!?!?

I think it is a sub dial too and cannot wait until Thursday. I showed my wife this pic and she just rolled her eyes, said it looks like your other watch and walked away

I guess she just will never understand, I can only home my son is a WIS

Puffy · 6 March 2012, 06:58 PM
