Rolex Oyster Perpetual Sky-Dweller

Globalization has made traveling for business a must for many executives and professionals. As the name suggests, the Oyster Perpetual Sky-Dweller is a Rolex for those who spend time in the sky. If you're a frequent flyer, keeping track of time zones on your watch can be frustrating.

This beautiful timepiece is designed to remedy that. With a turn of the bezel, you can set your watch to two different time zones without stopping the watch. This allows you to tell the time in your current time zone while keeping your watch set to the time zone you came from. It also adjusts the date between months with 30 and 31 days, meaning you only have to adjust the date once a year on March 1.

Shown here in 18 karat white gold with a black leather strap and ivory dial, this wristwatch is built to go anywhere and go with anything. Golfer Adam Scott is featured in Rolex's ads for this model.

Styled with a classic blue sport coat and black slacks, the Sky-Dweller completes the look with an effortless elegance that is difficult to achieve with any other accessory. Though the 24 hour ring on the dial may not be aesthetically pleasing to everyone, it certainly gives the watch a distinctive look among other luxury wristwatches.

The watch features Rolex's 9001 movement, a self-winding movement developed by Rolex in 2012. This certified Swiss chronometer passed Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute (COSC) testing.

The suggested retail price for the Sky-Dweller configuration above (reference # 326139) is 37,700 Swiss Francs, or approximately $39,544 US according to the current exchange rate.

Rolex Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona

Introduced in 1963 to meet the needs of race car drivers, this timepiece features a bezel with a tachymetric scale, allowing drivers to measure their speed up to 400 miles or kilometers per hour. 

This is a versatile and elegant wristwatch for anyone with a need for speed. As global partner of Formula 1, Rolex still honors their traditional ties to motor sports. In the 1950s, they began their relationship with Daytona International Speedway, which became the inspiration for the Cosmograph Daytona. Rolex is now the official timepiece of the Rolex 24 at Daytona and the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

Though it may have been designed for race car drivers, this watch is both elegant and distinguished, pictured here in platinum with an ice blue dial and chestnut brown bezel. With a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal that is water resistant up to 100 meters, this high precision personal timing tool can go sailing on the open water with you, too.

Style and function are not mutually exclusive when you own a Rolex, as the Daytona model demonstrates. The suggested retail price for the Daytona configuration shown above (reference # 116506) is 71,500 Swiss Francs, approximately $74,997 US.
