Underpinning almost every swanky or blinged-out Swiss made fake Rolex is a tool-watch ethos. That means traits like practical design, legibility, robust build, automatic winding and, for the most part, simple functionality. It’s a formula that works exceedingly well and results in conservative watches that rarely require substantial updates. This is exactly why the the luxury replica Rolex Sky Dweller stands out: it’s the brand’s most complicated watch and, frankly, it’s pretty funky for a Rolex.
Aside from the time and date, most complicated 1:1 replica Rolex watches might feature a single additional complication such as a GMT or chronograph. You’ll even find a moon phase in the Cellini collection. Introduced in 2012, the Rolex Sky-Dweller fake for sale, on the other hand, features not only two complications, including a GMT and the rather involved annual calendar, but also unique ways of displaying information and controlling its functions.
The annual calendar tracks the month and date, differentiating between months with 30 and 31 days and only needing adjustment once a year, on March 1st. The best 1:1 fake Rolex‘s 9001 movement inside accomplishes this with only four additional gears on top of the existing architecture that displays the date — a solution that, by its very simplicity, helps keep the movement nice and robust. The display is equally unique, with an unobtrusive window next to each hour that symbolizes one of the twelve months of the year. For example, the window next to three o’clock will appear black or red (depending on the model) to indicate the month of March.
This is pretty complicated and unconventional for high quality copy Rolex, but in addition to that is an off-center 24-hour ring to indicate a second time zone. This is a healthy amount of displayed information, and it’s all controlled by a traditional crown — but with a twist, so to speak. The crown is used in concert with the bezel in a system the brand calls Ring Command. In this system, the bezel is used to select a mode (e.g., one of the functions), and the information is then set via the crown.
In the second position (the first is neutral) you can move the main hour hand back and forth in hour intervals independently from the minute hand. The next position moves the minute hand, main hour hand and the 24-hour disc. It might sound a bit confusing, but it becomes intuitive as soon as you use it once or twice, and is in fact a pretty elegant and innovative solution — not to mention handy for traveling. Finally the last position controlled by the bezel lets you set the calendar information (in both directions, it should be noted, unlike many common and lesser super clone watch movements).
Echoing its dive-watch cousin, Rolex’s Sea Dweller, the AAA replica Rolex Sky-Dweller‘s name tells you right away that it’s a watch for pilots or travelers. While Rolex also serves those general demographics with its GMT Master II and Air King, the Sky Dweller is meant for another level of globetrotter: the one flying first-class. Like certain other Rolex collections, the cheap fake Rolex Sky Dweller isn’t available in an all-steel model. The closest you’ll get is the most affordable configuration with a 42mm steel case and bracelet but a bezel in white gold.
That’s where the collection starts, at $14,800, reaching cruising altitude in full precious metals at almost $50,000. This is unambiguously a prestige statement watch that stands out even among top Swiss fake Rolex’s collections, and it almost feels out of character for the careful and calculated brand. But like any high quality copy Rolex, it’s got decent water resistance (100m), a solid base movement — and is made to be worn.
