Single cuffs, natch.

I have never been a huge Air King fran. Cant put my finger on why.

Boom fake! Hahahah! Yes they are Trinity cuff links from Cartier. Dino has a pair as well. It's horrendously difficult to capture all three shades of gold on 'em (white, yellow and pink) in pictures.

Size. 34mm is too small for that style of watch, if you ask me. If you're smaller it might work.

Are HQ Milton and 10 past 10 the only "vintage" Rolex places in the bay area worth visiting?

"mimo's" Rolex is everything my Air King is supposed to be.

Nothing wrong with your Air King, mate. Enjoy it!

Very versatile.

My favourite here on TWAT

It's all a matter of wrist size for me. I am 6'2" 185lbs, but I have slender wrists that are best suited for little girl watches.

I know there must be a great meme out there for that.

Zenith Elite Moonphase Grande Date

Zenith makes a beautiful watch with great movements.
There are others I would choose before this design.
It is beautiful though.

I asked that same question here and here are the responses I got. After contemplating it for a while, I moved away from it..... (have to agree with Dino's view).

The Air-King is smaller (34mm). I'm not sure if that's what you meant.

I thought the new one is 39mm. I like 34mm, actually.

 

[TheWraith]

Nope, Air-King's are still 34mm. I like the version with the blue dial and arabic numerals best. Like the same version OP (though that one is 36mm), it's very Explorer-like.

I only know both of those from internet browsing but they seem pretty reputable and offer a wide range of vintage pieces. Could help take some of the anxiety away from buying vintage and hoping you didn't get shafted.
