Rolex Air-King Ref. 14010 Watch

Rolex Air-King replica is a “time-only” watch that Rolex has offered since 1945. It was named by Rolex founder Hans Wilsdorf, who wanted to honor the British Royal Air Force that was so highly regarded after returning from their missions in the 1930s. Rolex at one point offered an entire line of “Air” models, yet only the Air King remains.

At 34 mm in diameter, it is the smallest watch in the Rolex family of men’s watches. While many men today would scoff at a 34-mm wristwatch, the Oyster case adds a beefiness to the piece that makes it appear larger. If you are like me, you enjoy watches with history and ones of typical vintage sizes.

This particular models features a black dial, which can potentially add to the cost when overhauling the watch. Why, you ask? Because black, unlike white or silver, shows everything. The smallest speck or smudge shows clearly. It is always the goal of a watchmaker to have everything as clean as possible, but inevitably the black dials show more than lighter colors. Some will take that into consideration when pricing an overhaul. Now let’s really get into the weeds and move on to the movement itself! This Rolex Air-King contains Caliber 3000, as pictured below. One thing that Dave pointed out is that the movement’s model number is clearly listed on top of the automatic plate, making it easy for a watchmaker to quickly identify.
