Skydweller RG

Hi all,

Just picked up a preowned rose gold Skydweller from a reputable grey dealer. It’s one year old and looks great. The only thing is the color of the watch appears to be a little bit “dull”, the case and center bracelet aren’t as shiny as i would have imagined.

Is this normal? Do I need to clean or polish?

Thanks in advance.

Possibly unpolished if it’s a year old hairline scratches will take the shine away, which will appear from wearing it just once.

Wash it with dish soap and dry it with a microfiber cloth

We don't have any idea of what you're talking about without pics. Too many variables to even attempt an answer.

In the meantime, have you spoken to the dealer you bought the watch from with your concerns? That would seem to be the logical starting point. Good luck,

I have the RG skydweller as well and love it, congrats! If you aren't used to wearing RG it's much tamer than yellow gold. The bezel and center links give some pop as they are polished but it's still pretty mellow. A nice in-between for yellow and white gold for me.
Without pics we won't know if it's normal or something is off with yours.
