Incoming. After 3 long months wait

Hi Guys

I want to thank you all for helping me making the decision on picking up this watch. see this thread below
https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=580234

After 3 long months, the watch arrived. Although not the blue dial that I originally put my name on, I still love it and super happy that I got it. Here are some pictures.
Watch is not sized yet, plus I am at work. So I can't put it on. It is sitting beautifully next to the D-blue that I am wearing today.

ha ha, It has something to do with the placement of the D-Blue, which is closer to the camera.
What ring command?

What ring command?
The bezel rotates in three positions. It is called a ring command. Setting date and month, time, gmt time etc.

One question for Sky-D owners.
What size of box did you guys get? I got a pretty small box, same as the box that my BLNR came with. It just barely closes with the warranty card, manual in it. Is that the proper size box?

Great incoming, it's a fantastic watch. And the black dial seriously 'rocks'. Big congrats, that is one incredibly functional, handsome, and unique watch. Hope it brings you much enjoyment. -Rick.

I think it should be a medium?

What does your white hang tag say?

It will have Oyster S or Oyster M on it. That dictates the size of the box Rolex intend to be supplied with the watch.

The box size is marked on the white outer box

Congratulations on the SkyDweller David.

I think you should have received a medium box. I did with my SkyDweller and the hang tag is marked Oyster M.
