Rolex Sky Dweller 326934 Box and Papers 2020 Brand New Unworn Silver/White Dial
This is a Rolex Sky Dweller 326934 with Box and Papers. This watch is brand new/Unworn and is from December 2020.
One of the more prominent watches in the Rolex line up, the Sky-Dweller is a timepiece that is a true testament to the ingenious creativity that goes on in the in-house manufacturing of this brand. The watch itself is protected by 14 patents, therefore, it would come as no surprise that it’s also one of Rolex’s most complicated watches. The craftsmanship alongside sophistication is displayed to the highest quality in the Rolex Sky-Dweller.
Another intricate feature on the Sky-Dweller is the revolutionary annual calendar. Belonging to one of 14 patents on this watch, the annual calendar is inspired by an astronomical phenomenon known as the Saros. The mechanism is based on a planetary system which includes the Sun, Earth and the Moon. How it works is explained by a fixed gear wheel in the centre of the movement representing the Sun. A secondary wheel (the Earth) engages with the centre gear wheel (Sun) and rotates like Earth’s movement does around the Sun. Although the Earth takes a full year to do this rotation, the movement is simplified to make a full rotation within a month, to be able to represent the thirty-one days. The Moon’s place in all of this is to represent the four months that only have thirty days: April, June, September, and November. The Moon gear wheel has four fingers to represent the four months. As the planetary gears work together and make its rotations throughout the year, the four fingers in the moon gear would get engaged during the thirty-day months. Once the thirty-day month is over, the date would be forced to jump two days to re-calibrate itself with the start of a new month. As the system makes its way through the twelve months, it completes one full Saros calendar cycle and repositions itself to its original place. Ingenious isn’t it?
All these characteristics are bought together and controlled by a genuine Rolex signature feature – the fluted bezel. This rotatable fluted bezel interacts with the movement to be able to control the previously mentioned three watch functions: Local time, second-time zone and the date. In many other watches, one would normally pull the crown to adjust the time and date. As with all of the movements produced by Rolex, the Sky-Dweller’s main engine, the calibre 9001 is also certified by COSC. The calibre 9001 was created in-house by Rolex. The movement and watch were first introduced in 2012 and it still is one of the most complex in-house movements created by Rolex.
However, Rolex was able to reduce the number of components used in this complex module down to sixty, just by allowing the fluted bezel to dictate which function needs to be changed. Once decided, use the crown to then adjust as required.
This Watch has undergone a thorough inspection of water resistance, accuracy, functionality and condition to determine the level of reconditioning required to meet our strict standards. It has also been referenced against technical documents and manufacturer records where available to ensure authenticity and a clean history.
Like all our watches, this watch has been inspected by an expert watchmaker and has been certified as 100% original. All our watches are tested for accurate timekeeping.
