Rolex Air-King 14000 'Blue Dial' + Box & Booklets (1997/1998)

The Rolex Air-King ref. 14000 was introduced in the 1990s and stayed close to the original design. With a 34 mm case, a sleek dial, and an automatic movement, this is one of the more understated Rolex Air-King models.

The Rolex Air-King 14000 was delivered with various dials, such as silver, blue, and black. Additionally, there are variants with classic stick indices, as well as versions with the distinctive 3-6-9 numerals. This model is known for its simple appearance and is often seen as a classic, everyday vintage Rolex.

The (neo-)vintage Rolex Air-King we have here dates from around 1997/1998 and is in beautiful condition, with its razor-sharp 34 mm case. This certainly makes us happy! The sporty yet elegant matching blue dial with 3-6-9 hour markers ensures that this watch is perfect for daily use and suitable for any occasion. This Air-King is, of course, equipped with the well-known sporty Rolex Oyster bracelet, which is period-correct with its U clasp code and shows slight, acceptable stretch for its age.

This watch is equipped with the reliable Rolex calibre 3000, which was checked and did not require servicing this time, allowing it to keep time neatly with an amplitude of 285, a deviation of 0 to +2 seconds per day, and a beat error of 0.0 ms, ready for years of wearing pleasure!

Additionally, this stunning blue Rolex Air-King 14000 is delivered with its outer box, box, booklets, calendar, Rolex wallet, and of course, 24 months warranty on the movement.

Rolex Air-King

The Rolex Air-King originated in the 1940s, during World War II. During that time, Rolex supplied watches to pilots of the British Royal Air Force, who relied on precision and reliability. After the war, Rolex introduced the "Air" series, with models like the Air-Lion, Air-Tiger, and Air-Giant. Ultimately, the Air-King remained as the only model. Since 1945, the Air-King has been a simple and recognizable watch with a clear link to aviation.
