AD wait time for a 2022 Air King?

[observingwatches]

Hi all,

Does anyone have a general idea of how long I may have to wait to get a 2022 Air King, 126900? I have no history buying from an AD but started putting my name down at a few for this piece.

Thank you for the feedback!

what part of the country but a few months

Should be easy. My AD offers me that watch everytime i’m there.

Too many variables to give an accurate answer. Could be soon could be never. Hang in there and good luck

For the most part, I think this piece is an "if it'll be at all, it'll be soon; if it's not soon, it'll be never," similar to the Explorer or SD43.

Definitely not one to play AD games with, if you get strung along by one, go to another (unlike a Daytona, say, where "who knows, very popular" is in fact the truth).

A friend asked for one when it was first released, and just received it 2 months ago. No buying history either.

[Bulldozer]

2-3 months is what I was told.

3 and half weeks myself with little spend history.

Good luck, the watch is great

What zip code, Mr. Earth?

[Watchsprings]

Seems like an attainable reference with a bit of patience. A few weeks ago there were 3 or 4 incoming posts for the AK.

Europe (Germany) same with all explorer models. Both 36 and 42mm. But it’s more like relationship than location I think.

Ive been waiting over a year!

[TTkbd]

I just started seriously started checking out the AK today. It looks great online. Haven’t seen one live. I really like it.

Who can say? I waited 6 weeks. Merely 1 data point. Meaningless.

Wow.... Impressive

I have my name in for both the AK and Exp II. Crickets. Not complaining too much, I got BLNR in Jan 22.

I’m located in New York but travel to New Hampshire every so often so I’ll need to ask around there as well

You can probably get 2 of them within a month.

I waited a few months and then the big day came. I really do love this piece!!!

Check in at Springers in Portsmouth. No sales tax either. They are now a boutique. They may have restrictions on out of state sales however. That's where mine is from.

Poland: ordered 04.04, got the call yesterday, so ca. 8 months :)

I put my name down 1 month ago at the three Orange County CA ADs (Rubel, Hyde Park, and Tourneau). Crickets. My assumption was that one would call by the end of Q1. Let’s see…

In the meantime, yesterday I picked up the new rubber strap and clasp for the 3861 Speedy as it was in stock at Omega and that changed up the look of the watch.

Nice to know - my family is from Poland so interesting to see how long the wait is there!

I’d speculate 1 to 12 months.

[observingwatches]

Thank you for all of the input! Ended up putting myself on the “list” at a few locations - let’s see where it goes.

I’m patiently waiting since October.

[Michael1968]

I just register my interest yesterday but the SA told me that I have to wait about one year.

Should be rather quick. I would say anywhere between 1-6 months.
