Visited an AD in May with the hope of getting a Zenith Chronomaster El Primero - which I purchased.

Same day, expressed interest in the new Air King and tried on the exhibition piece. Three weeks later, got the call and had the watch in my possession.

Six months for me, Northern California, no prior purchase history and no desperation.

You‘ve read the 32xx movement thread, right?

48 hours, as an out-of-state walk in.
Wrote about this surprise in a separate thread last month.

Thank you for the feedback!

UPDATE: Got the text today that I can pick it up when ready! Completely made my day. It’ll be my first time getting a piece from an AD and the wait time was just under 5 weeks.

Stay tuned for some photos soon!

Northeast here. Put in for it in mid April. Got it in December. Looks like mine is about the longest on the thread. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Did you end up getting it from Springers in Portsmouth, NH? I live 20 mins from there and just got on the list for an air king last week!
