I tried on some pre owned 5 and 6 digit subs. I had gone through some threads and it probably gave me some pre conceived notions and exaggerated the differences in my mind, but I definitely liked the 5 better. I tried on a DJ and although it may seem boring in comparison I actually enjoyed it. This was all at a grey that had a double door security system, which again made me wonder why I can't just go into an AD and skip the Shady guy and the likely shotgun underneath the case.

Hope the picture attached!
If you do find another Rolex you like, I would try to sell the Air King as you will get more than if you trade.

Some like the 5, some the 6. You really liked the DJ??? I would focus on that! Its not boring at all. Its a very well made, comfortable, luxury watch with great guts.

Interestingly enough, I still can't tell if Rolex is truly what I want. It just happened to be the first "luxury" brand I thought of. If anything, the lack of supply and AD exp. is a huge turn off. Although as some of you suggested, I will try a couple of different ADs as not all are the same. I agree once the economy turns we may all have our pick, and then some!
