Neither. But if one was free, the milgauss. The current AK is really the most atrocious Rolex ever made.

MilgaussGV or Air King
Milgauss.
I recently read that the AK and the Milgauss share the same Movement/internals. Just a different case/branded. Something to consider when dropping a few G’s on a watch. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Easy AirKing.. The Z Blue is a watch for rappers! Some noteworthy reviewer called it the worst watch on the planet!

I absolutely love both models. I just had the same exact choice and went Air-King. I'm really loving it. But I would say it depends on your style of dress. If you dress a bit more formally I'd go Z Blue; if more casual then the Air-King.
The Z Blue is definitely more stunning, but for a daily wearer it's hard to beat the Air-King. Black dial, 40mm, stainless steel Rolex in the professional range. It's far less funky on the wrist than in pictures. |

I like them both, although my Milly is white. That one gets the most wrist time...

I came in here ready to vote for the Milgauss because I love my GV.
But you specified the Z-blue and a daily wearer, and in my mind, the AK might make the better daily piece. I think it would work better on different straps or NATO, and just work with more styles and more casual. |

If I HAD to pick between these two, and they were free:

I think it’s hilarious the hate the AK gets. I own a pepsi, coke, black GMT, etc....and still find myself most drawn to the AK. it’s a sharp watch.

Z Blue is my vote.
But if you want the ultimate three hand, no date Rolex - Exp1. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I’m a big fan of the Z blue. I don’t own one (yet). I think the AirKing would probably be a better one-and-only/all the time watch just due to black dial. That said, for a one and only, I’d throw black Milgauss into consideration

Black dial Milgauss for me. But, if that AK had full lume, I would buy one in a heartbeat.

MilgaussGV or Air King
It’s the Air-King for me. I’ve tried both. In my opinion the Air-King is better suited for an everyday watch.
One can argue about the green sapphire crystal and extra polishing of the GV but the pice difference is difficult to overcome for basically the same watch. Ultimately, it come s down to preference. Peace! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |
