Hello all and thank you for having me! I'm excited to be here!
I'm a long-time watch enthusiast, and I've just procured my first Rolex. I fell in love with the Air King 116900 and after a few trips to some AD's, I finally found one! I picked it up and couldn't be happier with it. While I've noticed that this seems to have a polarizing dial, I find that the watch is a nice blend of professionalism, sport, and uniqueness. I love the traditionalist nature with it's splash of intrigue - it's bold, non-standard, and cool. |

Congats! The AK is a nice watch. IMHO it is often underrated.

Some of that "stuff" out there is beyond hideous. I keep coming back to Rolex/Tudor and now have a short list of their models for which to strive.
