Hans Wilsdorf, in 1945, introduced an aviation-inspired âAirâ series. Many RAF pilots started buying these Chronometer timepieces for their accuracy and endurance; the models included Air-Giant, Air-Lion, and Air-Tiger.

In 2007, they introduced the Ref 114200, the first Air-King to be COSC certified. Rolex decided to discontinue the Air-King in 2014, replacing it with the Oyster Perpetual. This decision was reversed in 2016 when they launched the ref 116900, which was discontinued in 2022 and then replaced by the Air King 126900. The tapered lugs gently curve over your wrist, and a lug-to-lug length of 50mm and a thickness of 13.5mm ensure a comfortable fit.

The black dial features an inverted triangle at 12 oâclock, followed by 3, 6, and 9 with 60-minute numerals coated in Chromalight to provide a long-lasting blue luminescence. Mercedes hands with a green centre seconds hand add a pop of colour, they are coated in Chromalight. At 12 oâclock, a yellow Rolex coronet, with all the text, was expertly applied to the dial. On the reverse, a coin-edged screw-down case back, inside an automatic Rolex Cal. 3131, 31 jewels, 28,800 beats per hour, the movement is encased in a protective Faraday cage, a Bidirectional Perpetual rotor, Paramagnetic blue Parachrom hairspring, and stop-seconds/hacking function, Superlative Chronometer (COSC Certified + Rolex certified after casing the watch movement).
