Design and Material:
The 42mm Oyster case of the SKY-DWELLER is meticulously crafted from Rolex’s proprietary Everose gold, a unique alloy designed to preserve the luster of pink gold while enhancing its durability. The warm tones of Everose gold lend a captivating richness to the watch, making it a statement of refined luxury. The fluted bezel, a distinctive Rolex characteristic, adds a touch of sophistication to the overall design.
The dial of the SKY-DWELLER Oyster complements the Everose gold case with a chocolate brown hue. The sunburst finish on the dial not only adds a layer of complexity to its appearance but also plays with light to create a dynamic visual experience. The hour markers, fashioned from Everose gold, are filled with Chromalight luminescent material, ensuring optimal legibility in any lighting condition.
Complications and Functionality:
The SKY-DWELLER Oyster is celebrated for its intricate complications designed to simplify the lives of frequent travelers. The watch boasts an annual calendar, automatically adjusting for months with 30 or 31 days, requiring only one manual correction per year. The dual time zone feature is particularly useful for those who traverse different regions regularly.
The innovative Ring Command bezel facilitates easy adjustment of various functions, including setting the date, local time, or reference time. This user-friendly design ensures that despite its complexity, the watch remains intuitive and accessible for daily use.
Movement:
At the heart of the SKY-DWELLER Oyster beats the Rolex caliber 9001, a self-winding mechanical movement entirely developed and manufactured in-house. Renowned for its precision and reliability, the movement boasts a power reserve of approximately 72 hours, ensuring the watch remains accurate and functional even during brief periods of inactivity.
Bracelet and Comfort:
The Oyster bracelet of the SKY-DWELLER Oyster is crafted from Everose gold, providing a seamless integration with the case. The three-piece links deliver a balance of strength and comfort, while the Oysterclasp ensures a secure fit on the wrist.
