Elegant. Robust. Timeless. Versatile. Perfect.
Named in 1945 by Hans Wilsdorf in tribute to the Royal Air Force pilots who were already wearing his Oysters during the Battle of Britain, the Air-King is one of Rolex’s oldest collections – and the only one whose name explicitly commemorates a category of users. Eight decades later, its fundamentals remain those of the day it was launched: a robust Oyster case, a reliable automatic movement, great legibility and a compact format.
This superb Rolex Air-King in steel, a reference 14000 produced (serial number F90xxxx) in 2005, features a smooth steel bezel and a beautiful, pared-down black dial with luminous baton markers and hands (SuperLumiNova-based).
In pristine aesthetic and mechanical condition, recently serviced by an experienced watchmaker, and entirely original down to the bracelet clasp code (also produced in 2005), this example concentrates Rolex’s very DNA: clean lines, purity and elegance, durability, mechanical reliability, and exemplary comfort on the wrist, and is today equally suited to both men’s and women’s wrists.

Condition

This Rolex Air-King reference 14000 from 2005 is presented in pristine overall condition.
The case is in near-new condition, as is the deep black dial which shows no defect.
The self-winding mechanical movement, Rolex caliber 3000 certified “superlative chronometer”, was fully serviced before the watch went on sale by one of our experienced watchmakers and runs perfectly.
The Rolex Oyster “semi-rivet” steel bracelet, reference 78350/19, end links 557B, clasp code MA3 (produced in March 2005) is very well preserved, with no stretch. The Rolex crown stamped on the clasp is crisp.
An Air-King of exemplary quality!
