Just don't see that happening.
THE SS YMII WAS NOT A SUCCESS BY ANY MEANS WITH SALES
AGREE WITH 20+ for SS SKYDWELLER.

I could see them making a dozen for gifts like the SS DD but never marketing it.

A lot of the other watches are now available in SS e.g. the Yachtmaster 2 finally made it and I was wondering how many of these Sky Dweller's they actually sell throughout the world in the precious metal's?

What's everyone's thoughts?
Right after the SS DD40

It would be around 20k.
I would buy it if it's in the right color way for sure.
All oyster bracelet watches are available in SS.

Not sure why adding the AC to the DD suggests the SKyD may come out in steel.

I believe the Sky Dweller line was from the beginning envisioned as a second all PM line-up to go alongside the DD.

I was off by a little bit . Still can't believe the yacht master 2 is 20k.......The skydweller is a steal and I'm on the list.

There's a stainless steel model now, it just has a fluted bezel. Fluted bezels are gold, that's while you'll see white gold listed on the SS models. $14,400.

I am very surprised but as an owner, I'm happy many more will get to enjoy a great watch! It's going to be a hot watch. SS blue dial looks fantastic!!

This was nice to read as Rolex rarely gives any real hints so many kinds of assumptions may come up. Congratulations for starter of the post for getting it right :)

I was very happy after I started this thread in January, must have made my wish come true. As soon as I saw it on Rolex website yesterday morning I ordered the Blue SS and am supposedly first on the list but we shall see.
