looks much better to me in these shots than the marketing shots i initially saw, though still ongepotchket imo. definitely not for me, but i can see the skydweller having its place for some.

My first instinct is to slam the Sky-Dweller, but that one looks great. I wonder if they'll make one like that in platinum. Not a fan of the Roman numerals, or the bracelet, on the white gold version.

Ok. We can continue via an old thread. What do you think about my question in this thread?

I've never really been a fan of Daytonas, but this 1964 pre-Daytona is just awesome:

In general I just don't like the Sky-Dweller, but I do think the dial combination you chose looks pretty good for that watch.

Wow, no love for Daytonas.  I have always liked the manual wind Daytonas particularly those with the screw down purshers, but I can see why you like the non-Daytonas.  Actually, I'm not sure a 1964 Rolex chronograph is techincally a Pre-Daytona as the Daytona was already out in 1964 (although it may have been released prior to the Daytona, there have been several versions of chronographs that preceded the Daytona).  I believe Rolex continued to make that style along side the Daytonas for a few years.

I just don't love the Datejust II.  The proportions look off to me.
