The Snob is a fun read, and your opinion may vary. Enjoy it (or not) for what it is.

As for the Sky Dweller...

I called the AD in Orlando Fl, and he is going to give me a call when the Sky Dweller comes in sometime around the fall .. So far I think it's a cool watch but I wat to see it in person and try it on before I really come to a strong opinion about it .. I was told it will only be offered in WG or YG and both should be in at the same time .. I'll let you guys know what I think when I see it

Strange comments about the Skydweller from watchsnob.

recently, I was able to talk to 2 ADs, friends of mine, that were in Basle and they saw the watch in the flesh and they say it really looks much, much better in person. They were quite surprised that the watch elicited the comments on its aesthetics.

For some, such as myself, it is precisely this that is the problem with the Sky-Dweller aesthetics.

(If they had put it in a GMT case with a white ceramic bezel, I would have been first in line.)

The watch snob is a controversy, its what makes people keep reading his review.

But i do think the guy has some serious taste and very knowledgeable.
And the controversies he made are rather funny..
