A great new thing that I find very nice is this “little” Yacht-Master in titanium RLX. This new regatta chronograph has been designed for lightness. This is only the 2nd Replica Watches that Rolex has offered in Titanium RLX, after the Oyster Perpetual Deepsea Challenge.
This 42 mm diameter watch may appear imposing but ultimately remains relatively elegant and sporty. Its grade 5 titanium alloy selected by Rolex makes it a super light and ultra-resistant watch. The bracelet is also RLX Titanium with beautiful brushed surfaces. The watch offers a high level of finish with alternating polished, shiny and technical satin surfaces.
I find the bezel sublime, a bidirectional rotating bezel featuring a matte black ceramic Cerachrom disc with raised and polished numerals.
The New Rolex Sky‑Dweller 2024
With its unique features and distinctive display, the Rolex Sky-Dweller is made for those who travel the length and breadth of the world. It has two time zones and an annual calendar, no less. For this new 2023 version, Rolex has made some aesthetic changes by unveiling new versions of this Rolex Sky-Dweller. And finally, more technical developments with the arrival of a new Caliber.
Three new variations with a dial, black, green and blue. I must admit that the blue version is really very nice. It combines a beautiful sunburst dial with a rose gold case and bracelet. We find the famous Saros annual calendar which offers a super simple reading of the months.
Concerning the caliber, it is the 9002 movement which powers this new Sky-Dweller. The 9002 movement is the evolution of the caliber? …all in heart…9001. The Sky-Dweller has fitted this 9001 movement since its launch in 2012, it is among the most complex movements created by Rolex watchmakers.
This new Caliber 9002 displays hours, minutes, seconds, date and month, as well as a second time zone over 24 hours, a GMT. Technically speaking, the movement has all the new improvements possible and imaginable which make it a relatively reliable and precise caliber.
