Replica Rolex Air-King – Vintage vs. Modern

The Professional Collection of Replica Rolex tool watches, the Air-King has always stayed on the fringe, more a cult favorite than one of the mainstream big hitters. However, during its time, it has given us a number of classics, including some truly great examples of unassuming elegance and stylish sophistication.

Rolex Air-King Ref. 14000

By the time the replacement for the ref. 5500 came along in the form of the ref. 14000, the various Luxury Fake Rolex collections were becoming a lot more consistent and standardized. Launched in 1989, it followed many of the design cues of its predecessor, with its stainless steel case remaining at 34mm, and keeping the same overall modestly simple styling.

The biggest changes to accompany this generation of Air-King Replica Watches were the adoption of a sapphire crystal and the introduction of a new caliber, the Cal. 3000. This was the first movement to give the Rolex Air-King the modern 28,800vph balance frequency, bringing the watch more in-line with the rest of Rolex’s offerings.
