Since I own the z-blue Migauss, I never considered the Air-King. As I have always been drawn to unusual watches or "less loved" ones, Air-King came up in my research. So, had it delivered on Jan. 2nd, 2020.

Couple of pictures or it never happened.

Nice King ! Enjoy !

Looks great! Busy dial but to me it’s one of the most readable at a glance.

Nice watch. Enjoy! Did you get it from an AD. If so did they have it in stock or did you order before the price increase and it just arrived.

BigBoy17 · 6 January 2020, 01:32 PM

Years ago i didnt much like this model... but im starting to come around. Congrats

I bought it from a TS here on Dec. 31st at 2019 price. Paid, what I would have to my AD prior to the price increase.

Congratulations! Love the font of "Air-King" and the use of the green and yellow.

Congrats on the purchase. On the hunt myself, glad to see your transaction went well

sunnygps · 6 January 2020, 03:52 PM

Thank you all. I would say, this one is different and I like it. Easy to read, however I wish The 3,6,9 were lumed.

Ian Macdermott · 6 January 2020, 07:01 PM

Congratulations great looking watch

I was torn between the Airking and Explorer 1 ended up with the Explorer new from AD.

newportwatchguy · 6 January 2020, 07:22 PM

Congrats! Wear it in good health

I have 8 Rolexes (with #9, a Skydweller due here on Tuesday), including the new Air King model. While I wear all of them from time to time, the Air King is my ‘go to’ everyday wear watch. I love its simplicity and size. I think Rolex did a great job when they redesigned it....I do not care much for the vintage Air King, but this one is really cool IMO.

You’ll love it, wear it in good health!

1William · 6 January 2020, 09:31 PM

Congratulations.

Congrats on your new Air King!

JayHantz · 6 January 2020, 11:39 PM

Congratulations, definitely a unique piece!

Rori · 6 January 2020, 11:44 PM

A beautiful reference from Rolex. When I first learned about this model name and googled it I was expecting to see a GMT hand since it’s name hint to pilots or aviation.
Love the dial design language. Very modern.
Congratulations.

JoseR · 7 January 2020, 12:41 AM

Good choice.

My first Rolex.

rmlovett1 · 7 January 2020, 12:46 AM

Very cool! Congrats!

Willows · 7 January 2020, 12:57 AM

Congrats! The Air-King 116900 is my daily wear. There's something so special about it!

sunnygps · 7 January 2020, 01:05 AM

I hope Rolex continues with this model - same dial, skip the faraday cage to deduce the case depth and 72 hour power reserve. It will be an awesome watch. Leave the faraday cage to the Milgauss line.

BrianSims · 7 January 2020, 01:42 AM

just cool

shawn13ca · 7 January 2020, 02:28 AM

You'll like even more when they discontinue it!

Nadi090 · 7 January 2020, 02:34 AM

Great dials and easy to read...
Nice one..
