When I was looking at buying a Rolex a number of years back, I narrowed it down to two, Explorer 1 (39mm) or Milgauss GV.

After trying on the Milgauss I was a little disappointed if I'm honest (to shiny, and just didn't feel right) and blown away by the Explorer 1.

It was an easy choice in the end and thanks to Dom H. it arrived a few weeks later.

Having come across the 2016 Air King I think my choice would have been a whole lot harder.

I have been looking at a few reviews on YouTube of the air king and it really looks nice and well proportioned.

Yes and at nearly 2k cheaper as well.
The dial has grown on me too.

Not only case and bracelet, but the same mechanism as the Milgauss, with the same antimagnetic properties.

How is the watch working out for you btw.
Any pictures.

Lucky lads and congrats. I only came across them on YouTube the other day.
Still happy with the Explorer 1. Would have been tearing my hair out though if it had been an option at the time.

Wish I had your problem of needing another link for my new air king smile. Health to drive.
