New Rolex 2020 SkyDweller OysterFlex! - Can Rubber Be The Answer??
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ม.ค. 2025
- The new Rolex SkyDweller with the Oyster flex strap is something I personally did not expect this year but I am also not surprised. For Rolex it was very easy play. Just put the rubber strap that has already been very popular with both the Daytona and the Yachtmaster on the the leather version Sky Dweller and wallah! When I first did a video talking about the new releases I really did not focus to much in this model because I thought it was a bit to bland. Now that I have it on my wrist I must say that I was wrong. This Oyster Flex strap was the last missing piece for the Sky Dweller puzzle. Since the SkyDweller has a much moire taller case opposed to the Daytona and the Yacht Master I tend to feel that it is a perfect match for the Oyster Flex due to the winglets that cause the strap to fit raised on the wrist. This tall case helps to balance the look out. The previous leather strap version did appear a bit big head at times, where as now with the rubber its is perfection. One of the best things that they added was the Glide Lock clasp that functions like a Submariner and allows you to make adjustments to the band size on the fly. I feel that Rolex should just add this feature to every model. Retail price is approx $41,000 and makes you wonder if it is worth paying the extra $8,000 and just getting the full gold bracelet instead.
Overall the look is great and especially with this rose gold and Rhodium color dial. For me this is the best looking combination. My final conclusion is that I like it but wonder if they should have kept the leather strap as an option and not discontinued it.

Great job, I think this watch is a home run. Absolutely Gorgeous
Glad you liked it.
LOVE it on the rubber strap, casual but still a bully. Sometimes bracelets are too loud (for me personally). The SkyDweller with the black rubber strap and a black t - and the Cuban link - perfect understated drip.
🙌🏼😎⌚️
Can you get this strap separate
Blue dial, white gold, oyster-flex sky dweller is the GOAT sky in my mind. Wow 😲
I agree. When i saw it on pictures i wasn't convinced but on your wrist it looks very good
Great video man. Love the way you talk about watches. Keep up the good work Eric.
Did not know that it has the glide lock. Very good improvement! I wish Rolex would make it easier to swap the straps just like VC with the Overseas. But for sure that is a strategy behind.
Great review ! I really love this watch on the rubber strap more so than the Daytona , the rose gold works and looks unreal .
The best looking watch from Rolex bar none imho…everything a gentleman would want, elegant, sporty, comfortable, practical and beautiful!
Eric ya gotta switch wrists for that red string lol
I think it’s crazy to see how much the watch game changes when I leave Miami. It seems like everyone in dade has a Rolex and then I go to Michigan and all I see are Casios and Omegas. Just some food for thought. Dale
You're gestures are already legendary! Love it, keep it up!
Do you consider this one a “heavy heater”?
Thanks Eric!
Will get mine tomorrow from an official Rolex Dealer in Germany; and for the regular price I can’t do anything wrong.
Merry Christmas everyone & for You Eric😎
Did the same last week from my Paris AD... Awesome piece, trust me
Nos hiciste esperar un día mas! Pero ya listo para disfrutarlo hermano!
Gracias!!
the road to 100k continues!!! great review as usual my friend!!
The best watch reviewed on this channel
Was waiting for this review.
💯🙌🏼⌚️😎

I think the Skydweller is a glorious looking watch , just fantastic .
⌚️😎🙌🏼
Best Rolex ever. I have a Steel with black Deal and black & red RubberB. Also a Rosegold with white Deal and gold bracelet. I'am so happy whit both !
Rubber B has a nice product
@@WatchEric Black with red strippes.
Is it possible to order an Oyster Flex bracelet from a Rolex AD???
I have the 2012 leather strap chocolate dial SD, I recently added black rubber B strap to it, absolute beauty!
cool video. The Oyster flex strap is not just a rubber strap tho. It is impregnated with titanium on the inside. I have the Sky dweller on yellow gold with a black dial on an OF and it`s my fav Rolex piece. It`s like you`re flexing without trying too hard.
Eric, you forgot to mention the lume on it.. It’s an Awesome watch i have the black dial and yellow gold oysterflex i was offered all 3 and the black dial yellow gold is the best imo it flows the best with the satin black rubber of the oysterflex . 🖤
Great Vid Eric...extremely nice ⌚. That oyster strap makes the watch look better and more comfortable.
Yeah I like this Sky Dweller a lot. Black dial with black strap looks great. And finally the glide lock.
I’m looking at this again. You might have influenced me.
Nice video mate.
you can get a vacheron Constantin overseas and a patek Philippe caltrava for the same price as the overpriced sky dweller 😂
Mr, please explain from investment point if its worth to pay for those plastic straps instead of full metal or steel gold links
HUBLOT was the pioneer of this! Gold and rubber☝️
Amazing watch
No doubt!
Da liegst Du leider falsch.
Still prefer massive gold oyster on any SkyDweller my dear friend... I deeply respect your opinion and love all your videos !🙏🙏🙏🙏your channel is the best 👌👌👌👌
Fair enough! Thanks man
Great video! Great thoughts! Keep em coming more... Great work eric! Love the watch too...!
Great review as always Eric! If Rolex colour-keyed the oysterflex to the dial that would be ideal for me, as I like “matchy-matchy” things according to my better half! Cheers from 🇨🇦
Matchy - Matchy!! lol.
Grey would look cool.
The real question is...can I walk into my ad and get one?🤣🤣
Yes u can
I just did
Just not the blue dial one.
Great insights Eric.
Thanks for watching!
Hi Eric. Yes, an excellent watch. Good luck.
The rose gold rhodium dial on the oyster flex stap is 👌.
Or as Eric would say "it shows your watch game is serious"
Love this watch! I have the all white gold model and it's a bit heavy and difficult to get the size right. Of all the Rolex models, this is the only one I would pay above retail for, just not too much over retail.
Hey Eric, how come steel rises more in value than Metals specially in auctions? Do old vintage rolex patek and AP fade and corrode more thru time?
I've been trying to buy that exact same watch for months. They are not available anywhere...:-(
This is an awesome looking piece 😎⌚️💥
💯💯
I would wear a rolex with almost anything. Great one Eric.
I have my DSSD on a RubberB until I head back to the office (whenever the hell that will be). Love it. Looks like a HUGE win for the SkyDweller.
Hey Eric.. love your reviews. Where did you get the red rope bracelet in the video? Looks good with the watch 👍🏻
I find the Sky-Dweller a very versatile watch, unfortunately it would be very large for my skinny wrist and it’s also a little bit to large also for a dress watch. But it’s indeed between sport and dress watch. A perfect every day watch. I also really like how the Oysterflex strap fits.
Correct its a dress/sports watch hybrid
Hi Eric, waht do you think about the new Rootbeer GMT in rosegold cerachrombezel? bestr. from Switzerland
Eric, notice Rolex changed the case slightly so the previous strap skydweller wont be compatible with the new strap. Just like how the full bracelet case wont fit the previous strap.
Eric DD40 YG or the new sky on a strap ?
Hey Eric, where do you get your colored bracelets. I dig’em brotha! Thanks man.
Great content Amsterdam Netherlands loves your content
Thank you!!
I prefer the Oysterflex Daytona with a black leather strap. The Oysterflex strap fits this watch so much more
GREAT VIDEO!AWESOME WATCH!GLIDELOCK ON EVERYTHING !!!!!!!! EXCEPT PRESY .OUR MINDS ARE BECOMING ONE
You got that right!
I want to know if I was to get the older one pre owned on a leather strap could I not just go into Rolex and buy a ouster flex strap and save my self a good few grand?
Got it in the all gold version. Love it.
Great review bro. I like this watch.
I appreciate it
@@WatchEric more blessings brother continue doing your best and have great and wonderful weekend.
Does the oyster flex come with end links or are the end links welded to the watch to prevent customization?
Eric, what are your thoughts on the new oyster flex skydweller vs an AP Offshore 44mm Chrono?
Way too different to compare. The AP is very sporty!
Great review as always sir. But this is a No for me. The sky is too classy to be on rubber. Yacht Master or Daytona makes sense.
Thanks for sharing!
I just bought the white gold Daytona with the "steel"-colored dial and black subdials, on Oysterflex (even though I already own the almighty steel in white and black, and yellow gold with the emerald green dial and black dial with champagne subdials). It's phenomenal and now I'm on the list for this exact Sky-Dweller. I have the steel with the blue dial and the two tone with the champagne dial but there's something about this one. I didn't realize how lucky I was for my AD to offer me a precious metal Daytona on Oysterflex. All of them are super hard to get now. It's insane.
The OysterFlex is my absolute favorite strap on just about every Rolex.
Why the red thingy on the wrist?
Great video, love the watch!
Agreed - fit looks much better. I’ve got a YM42 and I totally see what you mean. Agreed - Oysterflex writing on the strap is a no-no. Nice one my man 👍🏻
You said it best. This is an easy one for rolex. Easy win! 🔥
Great vid Eric, be so kind and tell me what meaning this red thin band has? Thanks man, if positive energy and protection from evil, I'd like also to get one!
I actually met eric this past february and asked him about that red string if it has any special meaning and he told me nah it doesn't. jus does it for the astectics
It's to ward off misfortune and darkness brought about by the evil eye, many Hindus wear it.
Amazing piece
Feel it looks better than on metal. Nice piece.
Glide lock a win, the oyster branded word on side big mistake! Anyways, great review as always E!
Hey Eric, great review but I just think that no one does a rubber strap better than the AP offshore! It looks great but I wouldn’t want to buy one. This would look cooler on my dad but wouldn’t be the watch I’d wear to a club with my t shirt!
Clean af!!!
Yo Eric what do you think about the Pepsi Meteor will it go up if I keep it?
Great video... what do you think of the Rose gold Daytona with the diamond Baguette pink dial?
I assume that by definition, the rubber watch is cheaper than bracelet, right?
I don't mind what they've done bringing out the rubber on it, but i'm more annoyed that you can't get the leather strap leaving the cellini as the only leather strap "dress watch" option from them.
I agree.
Love the sky dweller. Beautiful in rose gold with or without the oysterflex. But that price is steep!
Amazing watch. I think you underestimated the watch in your review. This watch is going to the 🌙 in value.
I feel the sky dweller is too heavy on the rubber strap .
Yacht-master and daytona
Feel much more natural on
Oyster flex
Good video E 🔥🔥🔥
Shame the bracelet and strap isn't interchangeable on the skydweller .
I like the yellow gold on a strap
That would be ideal
Looks nice & stunning 😀
Thank you! Cheers!
Eric what mm Cuban are you wearing?
Perfect size... looks great...
7mm in 18k
@@WatchEric thank you for replying
Not sure about how I feel on the Oysterflex on the Sky Dweller, I need to see more of these and try one.
I like the oyster flex Yachtmaster..... that works.
I love this watch. Since 24 h I’m a happy owner of it 🍀👌🏻🎄😍
Great video Eric. Beautiful watch. But that watch belongs on a gold bracelet all day long.
Very true!
Hi Eric. Great Video. Great Watch. I waiting for my Steelversion with Blue Dial. Greetings form Germany.
Thanks for watching!
Yes am that person who doesn't like watches on metal bracelets , prefer leather or rubber strap instead
"41 thousand dollars for a Sky dweller on a strap might be expensive for many, but for most is actually not too bad" Damn Miami is really crazy if 41K is not too bad.
Why the 5 penny piece of rope?
One of my favorite watches!
Gorgeous. But too pricey for a rubber strap let’s be honest. That white gold/blue dial alligator strap is ridiculously nice.
Its very nice in blue
Eric: where can i get this rubber strap?
It has to come with the watch
Love your show. I hv 18K gold Skydweller w/ stainless steel and gold strap. Could I just replace strap w/ the rubber one. Would it fit.
It’s all about the little rubber flaps. On the Rolex website under detailed specifications it says flaps. Flaps. It’s a new development in horology. Have Patek got a strong flap game going on for 2021? It remains to be seen how rubber flaps will roll out. Post Covid.
I would wear a Rolex with a strap . . . but I don't want people thinking I grew up in a broken home and without a father :-)
🤷🏻♂️
sick ass watch and strap
Magnifique ⌚ Wow
Imagine a artisans de geneve version of this watch,the La Montoya is my favorite rolex
When will you do a John Mayer watch rating video?
Rolex likes to state the Oysterflex is a bracelet. Still scratching my head on that one, despite any titanium cores in its construction. It’s still a rubber strap!
Lolol. I agree
🔥 🔥🔥🔥🔥
WATCH YOUR GAME 😮 0:15
Rubber is great, but mostly for car tires...
$41k wow, there must be a lot of people with some serious cash out there....Not sure I would drop $41k on this though.... I would much rather buy a pre owned rose gold Daytona with the ivory dial. The white gold , blue dial looks great , I would definitely put that on a rubber strap , the alligator strap looks gaudy as the watch is too big and bulky to be “ dressy” in my opinion. I see it more as a dressier sports watch due to the fluted bezel, but not a dress watch .if you don’t like the metal bracelet , I agree the rubber strap is the way to go. Also agree on the Oysterflex wording on the strap , I’m surprised Rolex would do that. It lacks class and elegance, something you would see on an Oris or Tag Heuer maybe ‘ although I don’t like it there too. Rubber straps are best left plain, or with a pattern , but no branding on them, that’s tacky.
lol you can buy a vacheron Constantin overseas and a patek Philippe caltrava for the price of this wolex overpriced sky dweller but people will buy it because the dial says rolex the only rolex I think is worth the money is the zenith Daytona in my opinion :)
