Why the Air-King is iconic
Part of Rolex's line honouring aviation pioneers since the mid-20th century, the Air-King was reintroduced in its current form in 2016 with a bold 40mm case, prominent 5, 10 and 15-minute markers, and a dial referencing early cockpit instruments. It occupies a distinct niche between Rolex's dress and tool watches.

Is the Air-King a good first Rolex?
