So fancied a newish Rolex for a while, due to recent seemingly bargain prices. It was between a green glass Milgauss or a SkyDweller, ended up buying a 2020 Skydweller in steel with white/ivory dial.
I know it’s quite a complicated movement but I’ve a year left on the warranty, in case of issues.
Any tips, good or bad with these?
Case/movement/bracelet/daily wearing etc?
Great watch, love the complication and the function. Did you get it on the oyster or jubilee?
If I had one I’d wear it daily. Quite a large watch but I assume you already know that. Great complication - don’t own one so can’t comment further. All the best wearing it. Martyn
interestingly, can i flip the question as the watch you now own is my out watch and i too have been watching prices fall but as my premium bonds only got £50 this month it may be a while yet :peaceful:, how do you find it? what size wrist do you have and do you find it big . comfortable, easy to wear under shirts, basically the questions you asked :-)
Lovely watch, favours a larger wrist and the right dial can make a world of difference.
For clarity, I don’t have it yet, need to get it shipped or more likely a visit to our Capitol to pick it up.
It’s on the oyster bracelet.
I do notice the black and blue dials seem more expensive but they’re really not for me, always preferred the off white dial in either the steel or white gold case, and as I don’t like Roman numerals, i went for steel. Also a LOT cheaper.Quote:

Wears big so as stated need fairly chunky wrists to pull it off imo.
I keep getting drawn to the white dialled on, looks stunning. Noticed a mint green one the other day, price was crazy stupid
It looks like it would wear big but guessing it wouldn't be any worse than a SD43
It's a fantastic watch, I don't wear mine often but I love it.

I love Skydwellers. That gold one looks amazing!
OP, assuming you've tried one on?
I think I tried one with leather strap.Quote:

Probably my most worn watch lately. Bought mine new when passing through the airport years ago - just a great watch.
For your delectation, this is the one I bought.Quote:

Lovely watch. That Paul Newman Daytona he has is a bit special.Quote:
