I have both and it depends on what you want. If you care about aesthics then go with the VC. If you care about complications, go with the skyd.

The VC has also gone up in market value quicker.

If you want attention go with the skyd.

If I were to get rid of one of mine it would be the skyd.

Skydweller is too large for my wrist so VC it is.

VC - you already have 4 Rolex, change it up a bit.

Ugh….that’s a tough choice…the blue dial VC is spectacular and it’s a couple notches up on built. if I were you, I’d get the VC. You already have a few Rolexes. But it’s real close call.

Assuming all watches purchased at retail, I’d choose SkyD over VC date/time, dual time and Chrono. But if being given one of these watches, I’d choose VC chrono or tourb over the SkyD.

What a great problem to have! 2 fantastic watches you can’t go wrong with. I’m of the opinion I need both of them….I don’t know how to choose just one.

I prefer the bling factor and innovative complications of the SkyD.

The VC has a beautiful movement but calibre 9001 isn’t exactly a slough either.

Wait a second! You’d choose a VC tourbillon over a SkyD???
No way!


OP, VC wins this one and it’s not even close.

Two totally different watches. Love them both
To choose one, depends on your taste, wrist size, your collection and availability at retail
I suggest you try them on before buying
