Would you be in for this combo?

I definitely would. I love the sky dweller but imo the oyster makes it a bit feel cheaper then a DD, though this isn't through of course.

WatchLurv · 8 February 2020, 07:49 PM

Someone make a mockup then I can imagine it.

joli160 · 8 February 2020, 08:41 PM

That's actually a real pity that it's not on a President.
Too costly for me to mod it.

JSolution · 8 February 2020, 09:14 PM

Although I think it would look nice. I feel like Rolex should just keep the president for the day date

Pongster · 8 February 2020, 09:21 PM

Since Rolex considers it in the same classic plane as a DD and DJ, am actually surprised there are no president and jubilee variants.

The SkyD is not supposed to be a professional/sports model.

challer · 8 February 2020, 09:28 PM

I've seen mockups and an dealer and I tried it. It fits, the radius isn't perfect but with slight modification is it perfect. Of course, you'd have to get a PM DD bracelet and a PM SkyD. An expensive play

MTdweller · 8 February 2020, 09:33 PM

I think the SkyD works just fine on an Oyster bracelet.

1William · 8 February 2020, 11:22 PM

The only knock on the President bracelet is the lack of adjustment without having to remove links. The Sky-Dweller is way too heavy in PM not to have the right fit.

This is what 1/2 and 1/4 links are for

Exactly what I would’ve said. If anything the SkyDweller needs a mini glidelock.

Blasphemy

The more Sky-Dwellers the better. Still waiting for the Platinum Sky-D with ice blue dial and President bracelet

One&done · 9 February 2020, 01:06 AM

I would be in potentially but it would depend on how it sat on the wrist. It might move around too much with the head being bigger than the DD.

sapper · 9 February 2020, 02:23 AM

Justdate did a mock up in another thread. On the jubilee it looks too busy. On the president, perfect.

101031-28 · 9 February 2020, 03:16 AM

No, thank you.

cerendigit · 9 February 2020, 03:24 AM

lol Heck no. Rolex should keep the President for the DayDate.

I would understand if you wanted a jubilee on the daydate or a president on a datejust, but the skydweller?

porschejeff · 9 February 2020, 08:23 AM

Dilutes the DD branding.

EdwardC · 9 February 2020, 11:05 AM

Would be fun if this is what they will introduce this year

ruffa · 9 February 2020, 11:28 AM

I voted yes but it depends. SkyD is busy to begin with so it may be too tacky. But it might work.
