Rolex has completely redesigned the case construction and shape, replacing the once-curved Datejust-style case lugs with the straight, tapered lugs that are the hallmark of many Rolex Professional Series models. In addition, to further position the imitation Rolex Air-King as a prominent sporting product, Rolex has added a winding crown guard for practicality and enhanced sporting aesthetics.
Featuring a wider center bracelet and an updated Oysterlock safety clasp, the new Air-King, while at first glance similar to its predecessor, features several new improvements that demonstrate Rolex’s commitment to continuous improvement in the pursuit of excellence. Rolex wanted to create better balance and symmetry on the dial, noting that every other minute scale has two digits; adding the 0 before the five ensures that the minute scale looks consistent, purposeful, and well-balanced throughout.
In addition, Air-King now benefits from an improved Chromalight display, with the handset 12 o’clock triangle indicator and 3, 6, and 9-hour markers receiving a luminous finish. This update provides better readability in low-light conditions and makes the watch more of a product.
Even the movement of the new replica Rolex Air-King has been updated to caliber 3230. Released in 2020, this movement boasts a 70-hour power reserve and the COSC certification, ensuring an accuracy of +2/-2 seconds per day. It measures 40 mm and is water resistant to 100 meters with an anti-reflective coated crystal.
This updated Air-King, further respecting Rolex’s rich history with aviation, is sure to have a unique identity to appeal to those with a passion for aviation and travel – or anyone looking for an incredibly well-crafted timepiece to accomplish any task.
