2025 Rolex Land-Dweller With Oddball Escapement Cal 7135 Leak?

You could get a very nice Land-Dweller tan by lying underneath that tomorrow 😉

Long ago, in Terrasolum, alongside their vibrant bodies and crystal cities, the Land-Dwellers revered an artifact known as the Solum Chronus—the sacred wristwatch. This luminous object was forged from the deepest layers of Terrasolum's soil and crystal veins. Its face bore no numbers, only shifting runes that whispered the heartbeat of the earth. It was said that the Solum Chronus did not measure time in hours or minutes; instead, it connected its wearer to the very rhythm of the land and guided them in moments of doubt.

The wristwatch was entrusted to the Sentinels of the Roots, who guarded it as the holiest symbol of Terrasolum's laws. Legend spoke that the Solum Chronus could only be worn by one destined to unite the earth and sky—a prophecy whispered by elders but feared for its implications.
When Kael found the luminous wings in the roots of the crystal tree, he also discovered the Solum Chronus buried beneath them. As he held it, the runes glowed with a vibrant cobalt hue, mirroring the curious dual colors of his body. A voice seemed to echo from the watch, urging him to place it on his wrist. When he did, Kael felt the pulse of Terrasolum, the sorrow of its isolation, and the longing of the sky to reunite with its kin.

The Sentinels of the Roots, seeing Kael adorned with both the wings and the sacred wristwatch, were struck by fear and fury. "The Solum Chronus does not belong to you!" they roared. But as Kael spoke, the runes began to glow brighter, their rhythms synchronizing with his every word.
"The Solum Chronus is the key, not the barrier," Kael declared. "It does not bind us to the earth alone—it reveals the harmony we were always meant to embrace."

When Kael leapt into the skies, the Solum Chronus radiated light, sending waves of energy through Terrasolum. The floating islands began to drift closer, their waterfalls cascading into the earth's embrace. In the generations that followed, the wristwatch became a symbol of unity, worn by leaders who bridged the realms of earth and sky, reminding all of Kael's courage and the truth he revealed.

And they all lived happily ever after.

There’s always one in every Rolex thread. Doesn’t matter what the topic is.

As expected. Zero substance. Just generalization and regurgitation. Like I said, there’s one of you in every Rolex thread.

Did they also copyright Cellar Dweller? 😁

Well, well, well.

It seems a great calibre. Bravo rolex.

With that caseback I think the 36 version will be a better purchase. A good point is the scale of the rehaut. I like the oyster case, bezel and bracelet. I don't like the dial.

Honestly, an accuracy close to absolute zero was what I was expecting for this calibre. My mind is set on the ufa from seiko.

Agree.

Also expect that no parts will be available outside of Rolex service centers. You or I could probably get our cal 7135 serviced 20 years from now, but wouldn't hold out a lot of hope for whomever we pass it down to 40 years from now.

Seems a little alarmist. As long as the brands train independent watchmakers in how to service these movements (Which Omega does for the co-axial) there's no reason to think they can't be repaired over a lifetime.

Parts availability may become a problem 50 years on but isn't that already true of 50 year old watches now to some degree?

I'd be curious what @Archer thinks about modern movement longevity.

I like the overall look and a thinner watch is great. But when I look at the dial, I can’t unsee these horrible looking 6 and 9 numbers. They really ruin the dial aesthetics IMO.
