Rolex Air King Linen 1972
The Air-King is one of the last under-the-radar models by Rolex and has all the classic styling one could ask for from the Oyster Perpetual family. This reference made simplicity its asset - in this case, the clean silver dial is accented with applied indexes for clear legibility and the broad batten handset adds an overall elegant look.
This particular piece from 1972 is notable for its impeccable condition and stunning silver linen dial with the original Oyster bracelet in outstanding condition.
