Airking (that particular model) is one of my favorites. The only reason I chose Explorer I instead was because I prefer the 39mm on my smaller wrists. The AK pushes all the right buttons as far as I am concerned. Love the dial. Like the heft. Looks at home in the office or on the trails.
IMHO It is a COOL Rolex. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

The scarcity of all the other steel sports models has made people more closely consider the 40mm AK, instead of just dismissing it in lieu of a sub, GMT, or explorer. It's a great watch in it's own right!
Unfortunately, the enhanced scrutiny has raised the demand and prices a bit second hand over the past year or so, and it's not as attractive as a value proposition as it once was (then again, none of the Rolex's are!). |

Yeah. I paid Msrp plus tax. But I like new minty watches with my name on it and I’m willing to pay more. The price difference was about a grand. Well worth it to me to go new from AD.

What a beauty! That’s the great thing about Rolex watches, they all have a special appeal...if you told me a few years ago that I’d spend 13k on a yacht master I would have laughed... fact is it’s the most beautiful watch I’ve ever owned, hands down!

Typically this happens when people can't get what they want. Fall in love with what's left. Looks great man!!!!!! The explorers envious twin.
