Enjoy.
I think it’s around the same size as yours mate, I think on oyster they fit me ok sometimes I need 1 extra the oyster bracelet sizes seem to differ dependant on the watch.

Jubilee you most probably will need 1 extra :)

Thanks. Good to know. I like the black Sky for sure. It fits you perfectly.

I am not a jubilee fan but really like the jubilee on black for some reason, and all my other Rolex watches have oyster. I don’t expect one soon but this inspiring.

Absolute stunner, Jay. I love the Sky-D on the jubilee - adds a touch of class to the sporty look.

Very nice to actually receive an allocated piece from an AD (lovely people who I stay in touch with).

So I’ll probably trade the old one for something else I want at some point now - I have 5 sky dwelllers currently I love them but two black dial ss is obviously overkill! Even if they’re on different bracelets.

Always been intrigued to see how the sky wears On a jubilee I had concerns about it being top heavy I do however still believe the oyster is far superior for this watch. But no concerns regarding top heavy or weight issues whatsoever.

I can of course switch bracelets between the white and black ss now as I see fit if I sell the old one.

Also officially listed myself for the platinum day date with diamond baguette dial. Quoted 3-4 years, I wasn’t on the list for anything else (hoping on a meteorite Daytona in white gold on bracelet but have Been told it’s close to a miracle to when I will actually get it but I have been promised I will get the first) so I thought with waiting times may aswell get on the list for something!

On a side note I enquired about a steel Daytona (just haven’t bothered asking before. Well I was told ten years ha ha… so there’s definitely a reason to justify a premium for this watch if you really want it.

Happy weekend wearing your watches everybody !


**edit** watch doesn’t actually fit me extended as far as I can on the clasp with the easy link open so am waiting for another link :)

Wow, Jay mate, you done good!! One of the coolest Rolex made! Enjoy…

Congratulations my friend, it looks absolutely perfect on you.

Glad to hear the jubilee suits you as well …. Although I knew you’d need at least another link or two

I always loved the Skydweller and was really looking forward to a dressier GMT watch. Unfortunately it looked too big on my wrist :-/

Congratulations. I picked up my black dial Sky-Dweller on oyster bracelet in March and just picked up a jubilee bracelet. Now I have the best of both worlds.

You only have 5 sky dwellers? There's got to be fifteen or twenty more variations available for your collection!
