Vintage Air King

[visualplane]

I've always liked the design and dial of the air kings, and i'm thinking about getting a vintage rolex after seeing someone with one. The problem is that it's only 34mm? Maybe a silver or white dial would wear larger? What other models are closer to 40mm with the same look? Thanks in advance.

The new Oyster Perpetual 39mm is a bit close, but I want something used and a bit beaten up. Nothing too new for me.

The one I posted in my thread is 35mm and I think the silver sunburst dial makes it look at little bigger. It doesn't look beaten up though but looks used due to the 6 marker being a little off. If you want it let me know and I can see if I can get it back from the dealer that is trying to sell it for me locally.

No problem here, I really like my 5500's!

I have 5500 and love it's simple and clean dial. It does not look small in me and my wrist is 6.75". No problem with the size.
