CLARIFICATION: My AD is NOT selling watches online, totally misunderstanding on my part. Sorry for any confusion.

If I remember correctly, that bezel has some interesting functionality for setting the time and date.

Wow, nice piece as the black face looks clean and the rubber strap really looks great
on the watch! Great combination. Can you share the info about the band?

Skydweller and SD43 are my two favorite models. Best of both worlds.

Only issue was that I never saw one in the flesh (wanted to see it first) and I was in another state and there was no way I could make it back in time before they closed. My SA told me no problem, I had first dibs the day they opened back up so I wasn't worried. Then earlier in the week, I got a call that they were taking their inventory online so I had to buy it or it would go online. I made the call to pull the trigger even though I hadn't seen one before.

First impressions, 1) I don't think it's as large as everyone has mentioned but I guess it's what you are used to. 2) It's a bit flashy, there is a lot of bling going on. 3) It is a little heavier than I imagined but it doesn't bother me. Lastly, I love the watch and extremely happy I purchased.

Pictures to follow..... With bracelet and with Rubber B.
First congrats on the SkyD and welcome to the SkyD club. I echo your sentiments on the watch.

Wear it in good health!

You are correct. The bezel has three notches to set home time, local time, and month & date.
