Haute Time: Haute Living’s Exclusive Access And Video Of The Rolex Oyster Perpetual Sky-Dweller At Basel...

On Saturday I was able to get a first look at Rolex with our watch writer Carol Besler. All I can say is, what an opportunity to look and capture on video the Sky-Dweller. This is one of the most amazing pieces from Basel World and a huge honor that Haute Time was able to get an inside look at the Rolex Oyster Perpetual Sky-Dweller. This piece for Fall of 2012 will be one of the hautest watches to get on the market.

The watch currently has 14 patents, five of which are new, so this is definitely a piece that Rolex created for  Basel Wolrd 2012. It comes with Dual Time Zone and 24 hour display and the combined display of local time via centre watch hands and reference time via an off-centre disc makes the Sky-Dweller easy to read with a very cool looking face.

The watch has a fixed red triangle that indicates the reference time and the 24-hour display allows the wearer to distinguish daytime and night-time hours. The watch has the saros annual calendar, which is a ingenious patented mechanism inspired by an astronomical phenomenon that is able to differentiate the brand from 30 to 31 day months. Wow, very cool! I hate to always have to fix my watch otherwise. The watches come in white gold, yellow gold (my favorite) and pink gold with a alligator strap.
