Anyone have Sky Dweller (gold) that is able to allow you to adjust the Month? I followed the instructions on YouTube of the replica and everything seems to work except the Month. The bezel turns but as you rotate though the date in the cyclop, the Month doesn’t skip over.....

the month function is completely manual bro, just do it manually once a month, it doesnt actually jump with the date

Your model does not have an adjustable month indicator, it is fixed. Your bezel moves to three detented positions to mimic the positions of the gen bezel, however moving the rep bezel on your model does nothing else besides rotating its position. It's a useless function, but hey it appears to work like the gen so it may fool some of the people some of the time. Just don't show it to anyone unless its August, lol.

You’re in luck OP - just 20 days until you can wear it! Imagine if it was stuck on June...

I thnk you're right. I've been look at the threads and Youtube on how to adjust it. I know Noob Sky Dwellers allows you to mimic the gen like month adjustment but looks like mine is stuck in July. So this watch was new and factory just set it to August? There has to be a manual way to move it. Somehow it's set for August and now is July so soon I can wear it once a year!.

The new Noobs are the only ones the rep factories have produced that have an adjustable month indicator. All others ever made have a fixed month indicator ring (or no month indicator ring) glued to the backside of the dial. They are mostly all fixed at August, though I have seen some on DHgate where they are glued to a random month window. I modded one so the month indicator ring could be rotated manually but had not finished making it work without taking the caseback off. I'm glad Noob finally did this, it's a well executed feature. There is really no hope for you to ever move yours unless you want to devise a way to brute force jury rig it like I did.

Very informative KJ2020. Thanks you for the detail input. I am ok for fixed August date. I had hope mine was able to move the Month but looks like only th e Noob is able to do so.
