SKY-DWELLER

Description

The Rolex Sky-Dweller in 18 ct yellow gold with a champagne-colour dial is a marvel of horological engineering, designed for the global traveller who demands both precision and elegance. This sophisticated timepiece combines the robustness of the Oyster case with the ingenuity of a dual time zone display and an annual calendar.

Crafted from Rolex’s own 18 ct yellow gold, the Sky-Dweller’s 42mm case gleams with a warmth that complements its champagne-coloured dial beautifully. The dial itself is a testament to Rolex’s attention to detail, featuring a fixed inverted red triangle that points to the wearer’s chosen reference time on the off-centre 24-hour disc. This intuitive display clearly distinguishes daytime from night-time hours in the second time zone, ensuring the wearer can keep track of time across the globe with ease.

A standout feature of the Sky-Dweller is its Saros annual calendar. Marked by a deep red rectangle in one of the 12 windows around the dial, this ingenious mechanism simplifies the calendar function, requiring adjustment only once a year in March. The date is linked to local time and changes automatically as the traveller moves across time zones, showcasing Rolex’s commitment to functionality and user convenience.

The fluted bezel is not just a decorative element but a core part of the Sky-Dweller’s functionality. It is integral to the Ring Command system, a Rolex innovation that allows the wearer to easily set the watch’s myriad functions, including the dual time zone and annual calendar, by rotating the bezel and adjusting the crown.

The Sky-Dweller is presented on a solid-link Oyster bracelet in 18 ct yellow gold, known for its durability and comfort. The bracelet is equipped with a folding Oysterclasp and the Easylink comfort extension link, allowing the wearer to adjust the bracelet length for optimal comfort.

This timepiece is powered by the calibre 9002, a self-winding mechanical movement entirely developed and manufactured by Rolex. It offers a power reserve of approximately 72 hours and features the brand’s Superlative Chronometer certification, ensuring outstanding performance.

The Rolex Sky-Dweller is more than a watch; it’s a companion for the world traveller, a tool for the sophisticated explorer, and a statement of unparalleled craftsmanship and design. For those in Dubai looking to add this exquisite piece to their collection, it is available at The Watch Meister, where a selection of Rolex watches represents the pinnacle of luxury watchmaking.
