Congrats! A lovely watch indeed.
Been a long wait , but got the call this week and collected a watch I’ve been waiting for since I first read about it. Had only ever tried on a WG on leather which was stunning. First time I’d seen or handled a blue sky-dweller was this week when I collected it. Great looking watch, I think the blue dial looks better than the previous precious metal versions I’d loved. Feels a lot more balanced on the bracelet than the WG i tried. Seems to wear smaller than my SD43.
Anyway... really chuffed and bonded with it straight away ( this doesn’t always happen) . It’s a keeper and and complements my other keepers .
Congrats! A lovely watch indeed.
Congratulations. I do like the blue version and am a fan of the less appreciated sports Rolex.

Looks lovely.. Congrats
It’s a fantastic movement... great just playing around with it... although did have a scare this morning when the date hadn’t changed ( bit edgy with dates due to my Tudor gmt :lol:) , but realised I’d got the hour hand 12hours out !
Looks really good, health to enjoy. Interesting to read your comments 're size, a mate has both and he feels the sky wears larger than the sea dweller.

Peachy. I got one a few more months and love it more than expected
Where in good health
I love my SD43, that’s one watch that’s with me for life ... but it’s a watch That you know you’re wearing . Although the sky-dweller appears to wear slightly bigger diameter, the seadweller sits higher and feels like it has more heft.
Both these 2 are keepers, (along with the Tudor gmt assuming the date issue is fully resolved)
Very tempted with one of these - blue face looks great
First of, congratulations of the Skydweller, brilliant watch.
Your image is a perfect example of why i think the Skyd wears bigger than the SD43, the dial is that much larger, mine is also the white/silver which i also think give emphasises that impression.

Beautiful, congratulations.
Congrats- Always nice to achieve a goal - from the pics here, I really like/prefer the larger dial
Very nice.
Love this watch, very nice.

Congrats. I'm on the list for one and your pictures have reinforced my decision.
I love the blue datejust fluted dial, but keep reminding myself to wait for this to arrive. The Skydweller has that rare added benefit of being a Rolex with a complication and a cleverly delivered one at that.
Congrats!
Never really been into the Sky Dweller but these pictures have turned my head.
The next job will be actually sourcing one with a blue dial from an AD, which I believe is more of a challenge than the 116500.
Wish me luck...
Congratulations. Very nice watch

Congratulations, not only on acquiring your grail piece, but also your patience.
Congratulations!!
Looks really cool. Enjoy it :)
This one says hello!
Incidentally, I've also got a SD43 but not worn it yet. How do they compare on the wrist?

Put some pics earlier. Very different watches that I think are the perfect pair. Sd43 wears ‘ heavier ‘ but in a good way , it also has the brillian glide lock clasp which I’d have preferred to be on the sky. The sky seems to sit better on the wrist. Problem now is I can see my blro getting any wrist time

Beautiful watch. Roughly how long was the wait ?. I kove both the blur & whit dial versions.
Congrats, stunning watch and, like others, continues to grow on me every time I see ...... also interested in the waiting time on this one..... enjoy.
I put my name down the day it was released in March 2017. To be honest I wasn’t expecting one as nearly every dealer I’ve spoken too had either never had a blue one in or maybe only seen one through their doors.
Wow congrats. I hope the supply is slowly building up again as I’m still on the list for one.
Superb. Best Rolex for me.
Stunning dial ,sheer class
Blue dials with a bit of red for contrast are great,
Looks great congratulations
Firstly, to the OP, lm really glad that the watch is bringing you such happiness.
What l feel compelled to say, though, is that l think it's something of a shame that, due to supply and waiting lists, people are buying watches that they've not even had the chance to try on.
I suppose it's only the same as buying clothes from a catalogue, but lm not very fond of catalogues - l prefer to go into a clothes shop and actually see myself in the clothes before l buy them.
And, of course, catalogue clothing turns up the day after you've ordered - not months down the line.
Ok... that's that said! Enjoy the skydweller!
Let me know if the Arktis has to find a new home now that you have other blue dialed altenatives.

Congratulations. I love mine and the blue dial is the pick of the bunch.
They seem even rarer than Daytonas. My AD has only ever had one and others I have spoken to have never seen one.
Brilliant, very happy for you.
How long until you get the itch for the next one is the question ! Ha ha ha
A pic in today’s sun , on the dog walk :)
love it
Congrats, its a beauty!
I would so love one of these. Unfortunately I can't even afford to get on the list! One day...in the meantime, great pics from all the posters. Wear in good health!
