There is no other option if u have the funds set aside.

Rolex.c6 · 7 August 2018, 03:39 PM

I guess you should yes....

CoveWatch · 7 August 2018, 03:51 PM

If you like the watch then absolutely! I was on the fence for one and ultimately am getting a blue 15400 instead.. but it was a tough decision.. that blue skyD is beautiful though

joli160 · 7 August 2018, 06:31 PM

The only reason to buy a watch is if you love it, otherwise pass

1William · 7 August 2018, 08:56 PM

Go for it.

Bel · 7 August 2018, 11:08 PM

If you like it, and it looks good on you, and you can afford it, why not?

GoingPlaces · 7 August 2018, 11:10 PM

You gotta make that happen!

WAK4 · 7 August 2018, 11:13 PM

If you can afford it and will wear it, yes.

I'm not one to take advantage of my relationship with my AD to get watches to flip, or to get just because everyone else loves it

watchwatcher · 7 August 2018, 11:38 PM

You don't "have" to do anything. There are plenty of people out there that would think paying 14-15k for a watch was insane, to be honest.

But, if I had that same opportunity, I for sure wouldn't pass it up.

Vivalas · 8 August 2018, 12:04 AM

You cannot lose. Buy it.

Right!

Fort Rolex · 8 August 2018, 08:46 AM

By “have to” I meant that while timing may not be right (it never is right?) who knows when or if I’ll have this opportunity again.. Figure I can’t lose if I don’t love it so I ended up buying it and after having the 5th Ave service center adjust it for me I’m wearing it home.

Will post pics if I can figure out how to

Jimbogigolo · 8 August 2018, 09:25 AM

Yes. If you don’t want it... I’ll take it.

There's no downside. Buy and love it or buy it and flip it for a profit with minimal effort.

Les922 · 8 August 2018, 02:27 PM

Just out of curiosity I called dealers checking if one was available. One AD near my office just that day got a black SS in. I had to see it. I then had to have it. Crazy but the hunt is a lot of fun but owning it is even better. What a great addition.

chad362wiley · 9 August 2018, 03:26 AM

yes

FlyDuc78 · 9 August 2018, 04:07 AM

I happen to like it so I would I think it's one of the best complication watch Rolex has in its line up right now.

101031-28 · 9 August 2018, 04:10 AM

If you love the watch, yes! If you don't love it, I don't see the point in buying it unless you intend to flip it

Let us all know what you decide. It's a popular watch but wears a tad large for some to be comfortable with it. FWIW, I prefer not having to do anything but rather choosing what I want to do.

ra77man · 9 August 2018, 05:36 AM

As someone who bought and sold his blue Sky-D, I'd recommend bearing two points in mind before purchasing it:
1. After wearing it a couple of times, I didn't like how it sat on the wrist (bascially it doesn't sit flat and hug the wrist like to AP and Panerai do).
2. Very busy dial between 3 - 9, often interfered with telling the time at a glance.

Besides this it's an absolutely beautiful watch.

rcwatches · 9 August 2018, 05:53 AM

absolutely the prettiest dial of the stainless range. If you dont like it feel free to message me ill buy it!

SBC1986 · 9 August 2018, 07:24 AM

Haha. Yes buy it. If you don’t like it sell it at Msrp to someone else. Help bring the gray prices down ;)

moonk · 9 August 2018, 09:12 AM

Just do it

WJGESQ · 9 August 2018, 11:08 AM

At retail? Sure.

Cloudchaser · 9 August 2018, 11:09 AM

What time does your AD open? I mean, yes!

oldblock · 9 August 2018, 06:49 PM

Most people ask questions when they know the answer!!!

mahefa · 9 August 2018, 07:14 PM

Getting White ceramic Daytona is a lot easier than getting blue Sky-Dweller. So if you like it you should buy it. Next chance might take years to come.

It is excellent watch to everyday use, parties, wearing with suit etc. And it looks amazing!

holdtime · 13 August 2018, 02:15 AM

Buy.

CJY · 13 August 2018, 04:04 AM

Yous should definitely get it. Sky-D is the best and most versatile watch for your investment.
