Id bet they would sell those. Other than the GMT, those can be had at discount on secondary market. GMT is real close to retail and tax

You would know more than me, but I thought Rolex had started to issue display pieces to distributors so there would at least be something in the window with explicit instructions not to sell them?
They are all working watches, and they will all be sold at some point. They just have to keep a certain amount in stock
New watch day. I really love the slim case height.
Nice, I like that.

Was surprised see Nomos as sponsor for a recent Gentleman's Gazette youtube video and that watch featured. Rare to see luxury watch brands as overt sponsors in that environment (undisclosed YT endorsements seem more their style).jh0400 said:

Back-to-back beauties.
This thread is finally coming around.

So according to this, they are modified movements so they don't work.

My favorite watch maker. Nice. Haven't seen that color combo before but I like it.

The sky dweller and date just were only off by 1 hr (going from saving time to standard) so I'm pretty sure those are real watches.

Is this an attempt to "flex" on me?
These looked real and were ticking as I walked past.
Maybe it's like the apple phone in the IStore where they aren't fully functional..... but I doubt it.
I realize this isn't Vegas or whatever watch jerkoff store you visit, I was just walking through a part of London and these were in the windowbafcing the street.
Do any of your dealers feel safe enough to display wares on the street?
Do they feel safe enough even letting you put one on?
I was just sharing a pic I took of a rolex dealer in London and you feel the need to what? Call me out? For what?
Piss TFO.
Take a breath and catch up on the thread and you'll see why I posted that.
I'm mad!

Sweet jesus that's beautiful. Never seen one on rubber! I'm losing willpower...
Getting this back to watches… never thought I'd like the yellow gold but looks nice with an Aggie ring. Was surprised.

The Sky Dweller has always been one of my least favorite Rolex models, but this version changes my mind. That combo looks fantastic!

Rubber strap with a suit? Really?

Yeah, but it's Oysterflex, so it gets a pass.

Nope.
No doubt its bad ass but you could save yourself 20k by buying the two tone on jubilee bracelet and swapping it out for a rubber b. Everest may also make one for the sky dweller but I doubt it. Either way, I tip my cap to you.

No, that part is terrible haha. I also don't care for the bracelet. I tried on an Oysterflex. I didn't like it at all.
I should have been more clear - I hadn't seen the Sky Dweller in yellow gold with a white dial. That is what I like!

Just playin y'all, the skydweller in any configuration is pimp. Just when it comes to rubber straps on this particular page of this particular thread, the polaris is pimp-er
Somewhat related: have we discussed breitling buying (and planning to bring back) universal geneve, and much more related: the jlc polaris is strikingly similar to the ug polestar...is the polaris an homage?

UG had/has? some really sharp watches
A step back from a gold Sky-Dweller or Polaris, but took this on in trade last week and have really been enjoying it since then. Very versatile sports watch, and with the popularity of integrated bracelets I don't see this discussed as an option as much as it should be.
If anyone wants a Zenith entry for their collection, I'll let this go for $3,600 (full kit).
Very nice. I've decided my next watch is a Nomos. I look forward to posting this year.
