The news for the Oyster Perpetual Sky-Dweller is the Oysterflex bracelet replaces the leather straps. It is the very first time that this innovative and sportive bracelet makes an appearance in this collection. It gives the watch a completely different look and offers quite a dynamic contrast with the gold cases. While the leather straps where nice, this underscores perhaps better the true nature of the Sky-Dweller, as a watch for individuals with a very active lifestyle.
