Detailed features

Case, crown and 42mm Everose gold build

The watch carries a 42mm Oyster case measuring 14.1mm thick, finished in 18K Everose gold for the warm rose tone of the genuine reference. The case alternates mirror-polished and satin surfaces along the lugs and flanks, matching the genuine Everose gold Sky-Dweller. The screw-down Twinlock crown at 3 o’clock seals the case for 100 meters of water resistance, which covers daily wear and swimming.

Ring Command fluted bezel

The Ring Command bezel is a rotatable fluted bezel that selects which function the crown adjusts. The bezel turns to three positions, and each position links the crown to the time, the local date, or the reference 24-hour time for the second zone. The 18K Everose gold fluting carries the classic Rolex bezel pattern, and this super clone follows the genuine reference with a firm, defined bezel rotation between each function setting.

Sapphire crystal and caseback

Scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating covers the chocolate-brown dial and protects the calendar and dual-time displays. The crystal sits flush with the bezel and gives a clear, low-glare reading of the month apertures and the 24-hour disc. The solid screw-down caseback seals the Caliber 9001 clone movement and supports the 100-meter rating.

Chocolate-brown dial with month apertures

The chocolate-brown dial carries a warm sunburst brown surface that pairs with the Everose gold case and the rose-gold hour markers. The annual calendar shows the month through 12 small apertures beside the 12 hour markers, and the aperture for the current month appears in a contrasting color. The date sits in a window at 3 o’clock, and the dial reads cleanly despite carrying two complications.

Saros annual calendar and dual time zone

The watch carries the Saros annual calendar, which needs only one date correction per year at the end of February. The Saros system tracks the 30-day and 31-day months automatically and changes the date correctly without monthly adjustment. An off-centre rotating 24-hour disc shows a second time zone in the center of the dial, so a traveler can read home time and local time at a single glance.

Hour markers, hands and symmetry

The watch carries applied rose-gold hour markers and hands filled with Chromalight luminous material for low-light legibility. The applied Rolex coronet sits at 12 o’clock, with “Rolex Oyster Perpetual Sky-Dweller” printed across the dial in fine text. The chocolate-brown dial, the 12 month apertures, and the central 24-hour disc give the 326235 a balanced, symmetrical face against the Everose gold case.

Caliber 9001 clone movement

The watch runs on a Swiss-grade automatic movement built to match the genuine Rolex Caliber 9001 in feel, frequency, and autonomy. It operates at 28,800 vibrations per hour, winds bidirectionally through a free-rotating rotor, and holds about 72 hours of power reserve for three days off the wrist. The caliber drives the central hours, minutes, seconds, the Saros annual calendar, and the dual-time-zone display.

Accuracy and calendar performance

Daily deviation holds within -5 to +8 seconds per day after factory regulation, close to the chronometer standard of the genuine Caliber 9001. The smooth sweeping seconds hand and the quiet rotor confirm the Swiss-grade build. The annual calendar advances the date and the month accurately, and the Ring Command bezel sets each function cleanly.

Oysterflex strap and Oysterlock clasp

The watch carries the Oysterflex strap, the Rolex rubber strap built over a flexible metal blade core for the structure of a bracelet with the comfort of rubber. The strap pairs with a folding Oysterlock safety clasp in 18K Everose gold that prevents accidental opening. The Sky-Dweller uses the Oyster bracelet, the Jubilee bracelet, or the Oysterflex strap, and the 326235 carries the Oysterflex and never a President bracelet.

Strap comfort and wrist feel

The Oysterflex strap fits close to the wrist and resists heat and sweat, which makes the 326235 a strong choice for warm climates and active wear. The internal metal blade gives the strap a firm hold without the rigidity of a steel bracelet. The 42mm case and the Oysterflex strap sit comfortably on wrists from 6.5 to 8 inches, and the Oysterlock clasp closes flush for a secure fit.
