Rolex Air King 126900

Rolex Air-King 126900 Black Dial

Pre-owned Rolex Air-King ref 126900 (2023) looks like its predecessor, ref 116900, but now with a few slight refinements to the dial and a brand-new movement and case, complete with crown guards. The caliber 3230 is Rolex's next-generation time-only movement featuring the brand's patented Paramagnetic blue Parachrom hairspring, Paraflex shock absorbers, more efficient Chronergy escapement, and longer 70-hour power reserve. Ref. 126900 still sports the charming Bloodhound Super Sonic-inspired dial, only now the large Arabic numerals are filled with Chromalight, and the 5-hour marker sports an "05" for better symmetry. It's the perfect entry-level watch for collectors in the market for a different aesthetic than other Rolex tool watches.
