The History of the Rolex Air-King | Bob's Watches

Hello everybody, and welcome to the Bob's Watches video series. Today we are taking a look at one of the most under-appreciated, yet incredibly interesting, models in the Rolex catalogue: The Air-King.

Released in the midst of World War II, the Rolex Air-King is the only remaining watch in production from the original "Air Series." Released in 1945, the Air-King joined the ranks of the Air-Lion, Air-Giant, and Air-Tiger, all created to honor the RAF pilots of the Battle of Britain. As with many of their other models, the Air-King was designed with a particular type of person in mind. In this instance, it is pilots. Over the years, pilots have adopted the Air-King, with some companies, like Pan Am, giving them as gifts to retired pilots. The Air-King look is well known, and has become a highly prized collector's piece.
