Rolex Sky-Dweller Steel 326934 - 2018

Rolex Sky-Dweller Ref. 326934

The Rolex Sky-Dweller with reference 326934 from 2018 is the ultimate statement for cosmopolitans, frequent travelers, and lovers of highly complex mechanics. When the Sky-Dweller was first introduced in 2012, it was a small revolution: it is the most technically sophisticated watch in the current Rolex portfolio. With the introduction of reference 326934 in 2017 – combining elegant White Gold accents with robust stainless steel – Rolex made this horological masterpiece accessible to a broader circle of collectors. The 2018 model perfectly captures this modern, luxurious travel spirit and offers an unparalleled presence on the wrist.

• The patented Ring-Command system: The true genius of the Sky-Dweller lies in its operation. Instead of using a multitude of pushers, the watch’s functions are controlled via the rotating bezel. By turning the fluted White Gold bezel to different positions, the crown can intuitively and playfully set either the Date, local time, or home time.

• The ingenious annual calendar (Saros system): Inspired by the astronomical phenomenon of the Saros cycle, the watch’s annual calendar independently distinguishes between months with 30 and 31 days. The Date only needs to be manually corrected once a year – on March 1st. The clever detail: the current month is discreetly displayed via twelve small windows on the outer edge of the hour markers (e.g., a red field at 8 o’clock stands for August).

• Two time zones at a glance: The local time is read via the traditional main hands made of White Gold. The home time (or a second time zone) is displayed on an off-center, rotating 24-hour disc in the center of the dial. A fixed red triangular tip indicates the corresponding hour and, thanks to the 24-hour scale, prevents any confusion between day and night.

• Exclusive material combination (White Rolesor): The striking 42 mm case and bracelet are made from extremely durable Oystersteel (904L stainless steel). The legendary fluted bezel is crafted from solid 18-carat White Gold and gives the watch its typical luxurious sparkle with every movement of the hand.

• The masterful manufacture caliber 9001: At the heart of the watch beats one of the most complex movements Rolex has ever developed. The automatic caliber 9001 is protected by seven patents, features the paramagnetic blue Parachrom hairspring, and offers an excellent power reserve of approximately 72 hours. It is certified as a Superlative Chronometer (-2/+2 seconds per day).

• Sovereign protection and night readability: A scratch-resistant Sapphire Crystal with the classic Cyclops lens at 3 o’clock protects the dial. Thanks to the Twinlock winding crown, the Sky-Dweller is water-resistant to a depth of 100 meters (10 ATM). The Chromalight luminescent material ensures a long-lasting blue glow in the dark.

• The sporty Oyster bracelet: This luxury travel companion is worn on the three-link Oyster stainless steel bracelet. Equipped with the Oysterclasp folding clasp, it features the practical Easylink system, allowing the bracelet to be extended by approximately 5 mm in no time on warm days.

• A modern classic with cult status (vintage 2018): A Rolex Sky-Dweller 326934 from 2018 represents the perfect symbiosis of traditional haute horlogerie and modern Rolex aesthetics. Due to its technical finesse and sporty-luxurious appearance, it is one of the most sought-after and value-retentive models of the brand.
