This replica Sky-Dweller 326238 champagne presents the classic combination of yellow gold and a warm champagne dial — a pairing that has defined dress-sport Rolex references for decades. At 42mm, the full yellow gold case carries significant visual and physical weight, and the champagne sunray dial complements rather than contrasts with the metal tone. Ref. 326238 houses the Command bezel system that lets you adjust hour, date, and month through three rotational positions, making it one of the more mechanically interactive bezels in the catalog.

Case & Movement Specs

• Case diameter: 42mm
• Case material: 18ct yellow gold
• Bezel: fluted Command bezel in yellow gold
• Dial: champagne sunray with applied gold markers
• Crystal: sapphire with anti-reflective coating and Cyclops
• Bracelet: Oyster in yellow gold or Oysterflex rubber
• Functions: annual calendar, dual time zone, date

Champagne on yellow gold is the most traditional Sky-Dweller configuration. The applied markers match the case metal, and the sunray pattern radiates from center outward, adding depth beneath the sapphire crystal.

Caliber Breakdown

Sky-Dweller annual calendars distinguish between months of 30 and 31 days without manual intervention for eleven months. Only the February-to-March transition requires a single correction. Twelve month indicators sit at the outer rim of the dial — one turns red to mark the current month. The off-center 24-hour subdial at 12 reads a second time zone on a continuous scale, which provides a more intuitive readout than a rotating bezel or GMT hand for travelers who reference home time frequently. For a comparison of how each reference handles the Oyster bracelet, see the Sky-Dweller Oyster bracelet group. The complete Sky-Dweller catalog covers every metal, dial, and strap option in the current range.

How It Compares

Yellow gold champagne configurations predate the Sky-Dweller itself — the Day-Date has carried this combination since the 1950s. What the Sky-Dweller adds is complication depth: annual calendar and dual time zone in a 42mm case that sits larger and thicker than a Day-Date 40. The champagne dial softens the gold presence compared to a white or black face, which would create sharper contrast. This replica Sky-Dweller 326238 champagne is the heritage-oriented choice for anyone drawn to gold but wanting substantially more function than a simple three-hand dress watch delivers.
