THE NEW ROLEX SKY-DWELLER WITH OYSTERFLEX BRACELET COMFORT EXTREME
Originally launched in 2012, the Sky- Dweller is now fitted for the first time with the Oysterflex bracelet, which debuted to great acclaim in 2015 on the Yacht-Master and appeared on the Daytona in 2017. This is the first time the bracelet has been applied to a watch outside the professional sport range and the first time it has been used on the Sky-Dweller, debuting on the 18k yellow gold model. The Oysterflex may look like a rubber bracelet, but it is much more than that. It is made of a very soft, flexible elastomer with an internal cushion system that makes it extremely well fitting and comfortable. The elastomer is molded to fit over a flexible metal blade made of a titanium and nickel alloy, so you get the strength of metal and the comfort of rubber-like elastomer, along with a sporty look. The Rolex Glidelock on the Oysterflex bracelet has six notches of approximately 2.5 mm, allowing the bracelet length to be adjusted easily, up to 15 mm.
