Welcome fellow Canuck!! I guess my first question would be do you like the watch and if it was looking like new would you wear it? I would prefer to look at it this way, for the cost of 500.00 est you would have a watch that would sell new for 3300.00! Now that model has some other things going for it, The Air King date was a watch more common in the Canadian market and with original papers and box etc, should get a bit more for it. If you don't care to wear it and it has no sentimental value then if someone told you could spend 500.00 and get 12 to maybe 1500.00 back would you?
Cheers from the "WET COAST" !!

I wore it for a couple of months .... I never wear watches and it has no sentimental value. So what is unique about an Air King date ? And I am guessing at the $500 ... maybe it could cost $600 to fix up?
