The classic Air King with a bold dial 

Description

The Air King possesses  everything that make Rolex watches so succesfull. The Oyster case is sturdy and waterproof, yet still slim and discret (especially here in 34mm). The easily adjustable bracelet and the automatic movement make it a watch that is both comfortable and practical. The Air King adapts to every situation, both at work and on vacation.

Air Kings are quite low key, they stay under the radar. And that's one of the reasons we love them. But the warm Salmon dial gives it a bold look. The numerals at 3, 6 and 9 o'clock underlines the sporty and practical fonction of Rolex watches.  .

How to wear it?

The Air King model rhymes with versatility. This is the watch to wear daily, whatever the situation, without fear of damaging it. It will be perfect with a casual outfit. In the summer, the pink and brown reflections of the dial will definitely bring of touch of color to your outfit. 

Why did Françoise choose it ?

Françoise will never stop recommending Air Kings. To her mind, it's the quintessence of Rolex watches. 

The Salmon dial brings a feminine twist, an alternative to the sleeker dials of other Air King models.

History

The Air King line was launched to honor the exploits of English Pilots during World War II. It quickly became the typical and simplest Rolex : waterproof, automatic, practical with clean and simple dials. The 5500 reference was such a success for Rolex that they kept it for 37 years in production. The reference 14000 took over the 5500, bringing modernity to the line and confirmed Rolex as the the king of watchmakers.

Authentication

Every piece undergoes a two-step expert review before joining our selection.

Françoise and her team, collectors and horology enthusiasts for many years, examine it first.

Our partner watchmakers, with whom we work closely, then carry out the technical authentication.

Condition

Our photographs are true to life: taken in-house with a macro lens, they capture every detail of a piece with precision — including marks or scratches that may be less visible to the naked eye.

We never retouch a watch's condition; only the brightness of the photograph may be adjusted.

Serial numbers are removed from photographs to protect the authenticity of each piece.

Shipping

Worldwide shipping and insurance are offered for each item upon receipt of payment.

Any customs duties and local taxes, which vary depending on the country of destination, remain your responsibility.

In Paris, hand-delivery is possible by appointment, once funds have been received.

Return and refund policy

Despite photos and descriptions that we hope are as accurate as possible, we know that the relationship with a piece of jewelry, a watch, is above all physical.

That's why we offer a 14-day return period, no questions asked, with a refund within 5 days of receiving the watch.

However, the watch must be in an aesthetic and mechanical condition similar to when it was sent.
