The word “Rolex” has a powerful meaning in the horological realm. Different categories of watch enthusiasts interpret this term differently. Some might associate the brand’s name with status, wealth, and high social positions. On the other hand, another category associates the term with sports, durability, performance, and strength.
In my opinion, Rolex is more than that. I relate this definition with a reliable partner of the most iconic historical achievements in different fields. The brand was there to support pilots during War. It was also there to support the Mariana Trench exploration. Last, but not least, it is the brand that turns the horological industry to 360 degrees, when it comes to breaking the borders in terms of innovative mechanisms and revolutionary designs.
Thanks to the talent of replica manufacturers, I have the possibility to have a piece of the brand’s majesty on my wrist. I know that it is hardly believable that a replica watch can replace the value of a genuine one, but, unfortunately (or luckily), a qualitative replica Rolex is all I can afford. With a little luck, I know (from my own experience) that I can own a replica timepiece that can serve for as much as 5-7 years, or even more if I handle it properly.
From all Rolex collections, I have a special attitude towards the Sky-Dweller series. I adore its complexity. It makes the watch resonate with my strong temperament. I want to share my experience of wearing a replica Rolex Sky-Dweller, as well as its features and specs. Maybe, you will find it as great as I do.
Short general review
The genuine collection was presented to the audience in 2012. The first variations came in the gold version, while the following iterations came in combination with stainless steel. I embrace this model, particularly for its complexity. As far as I am acquainted with all Rolex collections, the Sky-Dweller represents the most complicated series of all.
The watch features both an Annuals Calendar as well as a GMT, all incorporated into the watch mechanism. Generally speaking, the Sky-Dweller is a pretty showy timepiece, coming in a 42mm case. The original model weighs about 175 grams and I suggest you look for the same weight if it is a replica version. The huge difference in weight (of the replica version) is a sign of poor replica quality.
My favorite tone
While I and my wife were picking the dial color of the replica Sky-Dweller 326934, we both concluded that the blue sunburst dial was the most vivid, appealing, and dynamic. In addition, this is the tone that reflects most playfully the color combinations when in motion. The variations between light navy transitioning to dark blue to almost black look spectacular under different light angles. I can’t say that it feels light on the wrist. I do feel that specific heaviness reminiscent of the qualitative materials used in my replica watch. Despite the heaviness, it falls comfortably on my arm and compliments fantastically every polo shirt I wear.
In general lines, it looks bold and strict on the wrist. The amalgam of complications speaks out loud that it is a Rolex, even without looking at it from a close distance.
“Feeling” the watch
Honestly speaking, I tried to meditate for a while trying to understand what attracts me the most in it. I certainly feel comfortable and confident with it on my wrist. And let me tell you that, in fact, it’s not just because it is a Rolex replica. It is also because I feel like I can control several time zones and this makes me feel assertive. Moreover, I feel like I am always being connected to the “Here and Now” due to the date and month display.
In addition, the replica watch is my loyal partner in any activity I perform. I don’t have to worry about washing my car (I do it by myself and I adore it) while wearing it. Its water resistance capacity is reliable and does not make me concerned about potential water damage.
At this very point, I want to mention that I bought a waterproof replica watch that was not a cheap one. In case you plan to buy one, make sure that your replica Sky-Dweller is waterproof tested. Not all replica dealers perform tests and therefore, not all of them can guarantee waterproofness. You would better pay some extra money to have an infallible waterproof replica, rather than pay less and get susceptible to water timepiece (it’s put to you though).
Components beauty
The polished center links of the bracelet confer even more aesthetic appeal to the overall watch design. However, these can be susceptible to scratches. Since I am a pedantic person, I take significant care of my replica watch. In case you are a more ignorant person towards your accessories, you might quickly “gain” a scratch that would impair the aesthetic view of the bracelet. Therefore, my suggestion is that these replica watches are intended for accurate, responsible, and attentive watch enthusiasts, with all due respect.
Honestly speaking, I’m not a frequent traveler. I usually go on holiday twice a year and therefore don’t use the GMT function as frequently as I should. But, this complication has a sentimental role for me. The second time zone, apart from the one I live in, indicates to me the time of the country I was born in and where my parents currently live. So, I always stay connected with my childhood place. Setting the GMT function is more than easy. You can follow the instructions right here, in case you find any difficulties.
Due to its complex dial and mechanism, the watch might be difficult to read by people with slightly impaired vision. As a result, this replica timepiece might not be the best gift for adult men prone to having visual affections. In this context, I would better recommend a larger Panerai, if you permit.
Final thoughts
Considering my preferences and tastes, this replica watch completely meets my expectations. It has personality, boldness, and complicated architecture that I find phenomenal. The specific style of the timepiece is suitable for temperamental and vigorous men. In case you view this replica watch as a potential choice, consider the fact that its legibility is moderate to difficult (for some persons). But, if you embrace statement timepieces as much as I do, you don’t have to think twice.
