New Airking reference

FrankyTanky · 25 May 2019, 06:50 AM

I'm thinking about a air King date in the U.K.

scotrick · 31 May 2019, 11:31 AM

Good choice, a little harder to find but very wearable!

Timekeep111 · 31 May 2019, 03:08 PM

Love the new air kings.

scotrick · 2 June 2019, 11:56 AM

Wasn't a fan at first but growing on me, was a difficult leap from my 5500's but the new one is not bad on the wrist.

Just joined the Air King club. Picked this up a local AD while searching for a GMT. I don’t understand the vast dislike for this watch. It’s a fun reasonably priced addition to my small collection. I think it looks great.

It's very comfortable - nice and tidy.

I've been an air-king owner for 2 years now, it's about time for some pics.

Picked this one up in Milano and its been my daily wear ever since.

It looks like it has been dragged across the concrete floor. It is definitely well worn.

Now that watch has a story ..I forgot about that infamous Air-King
Well done on the restoration....as they say it works

It has a cool patina due to its slight wear.
I remember when that watch was one of the most famous on the internet

Looks great bud! Ergonomically I still prefer the contours of the 5500 on me but that's why this watch has such a wide range and long duration of appeal!

Looks great Matt!

juktagt · 14 August 2019, 01:45 AM

So I ran a check on the time keeping of my Rolex Air-King 14000 from 1991- it’s running at -1 sec per day. Quite remarkable I think.

Jafoh2 · 6 October 2019, 06:03 AM

Can anybody tell me what Air King this is? I can't seem to find one with this face. The band is with the watch. Could you put a value on it?

garbanzo · 6 October 2019, 06:07 AM

Looks like I haven’t joined this club yet, so here we go - this is my 20-day old

Nice. And welcome!

Paul H · 6 October 2019, 06:21 AM

This watch is most elegant because of its simplicity. Has the Air King ever come with a black dial?

Paul H · 6 October 2019, 06:48 AM

I will correct my previous question. What I meant was to inquire as to whether or not older Air Kings came with a black dial. I understand the new ones (116900) do come with black dial but most of the older Air Kings appear to come with lighter or blue dials. I have not seen one with a black dial.

They sure did, and very smart they are!

tanask211 · 6 October 2019, 12:10 PM

Seriously I didn't like it when it was launch but having seen it in display in AD.. It started to grow on me therefore it became on 5th watch in my collection.
