The Second-time Zone Indicator
The Rolex Sky-Dweller 326238 displays the time in two time zones simultaneously. You can read the local time with the conventional centre hour, minute and seconds hands. You can adjust the hour hand forwards and backwards independently in one-hour increments. Setting the hour hand does not affect the minute or seconds hands or the reference time. The date window always displays the current date according to your local time zone.
You can set another reference time or second-time zone on a rotating off-centre disc. A fixed inverted red triangle points to your chosen reference time. The disc’s 24-hour display allows you to clearly distinguish daytime hours from night-time hours in the distant time zone.
The Saros Annual Calendar
The Rolex Sky-Dweller 326238 has a reliable annual calendar named Saros. The Saros annual calendar can automatically differentiate between 30-day and 31-day months. It displays the correct date throughout the year. It requires only one adjustment a year. You need to adjust it on 1st March when February has only 28 or 29 days.
The date display is at “3 o’clock”. The month indication is in red, displayed in one of the 12 windows around the dial. January, the month indication will be at 1 o’clock, February will be at 2 o’clock, and so on.
The Ring Command System
The Rolex Sky-Dweller 326238 Ring Command System allows you to select and set the timepiece’s functions such as date, month, local time and reference time one by one via a rotatable bezel and the winding crown. It is a system of interaction between the case and movement for easy selection and adjustment of particular functions.

The yellow gold case back has fluting edges. The yellow gold Twinlock winding crown comprises a double system of seals, one inside the tube and another inside the winding crown.
The Rolex fluted bezel is a mark of distinction, always in gold. The Cyclops lens with a double anti-reflective coating magnifies the watch’s emblematic date display two and a half times for easy reading.

The Black Dial with a Sunray Finish
The Rolex Sky-Dweller 326238 dial is bright black with a sunray finish. A fixed inverted red triangle points to the chosen reference time. The disc’s 24-hour display clearly distinguishes daytime hours from night-time hours in the distant time zone.
The gold hour markers apply with a Chromalight luminescent coating that emits a long-lasting blue glow in the dark. The hour, minute and second hands are 18k yellow gold. The hour and minute hands are skeletonised at the base and applied with a Chromalight luminescent coating at their tips.
