how to use watch market data to inform your collectingThe current market and sartorial context are, then, perfect for the Rolex Air-King, a watch we detailed the entire history of in our thoroughly researchedrecently. Vintage modes are almost all 34 mm, though there are a smattering of 36 mm models as well as the modern iterations at modern sizes.
This 5504 is being offered by Craft + Tailored and hails from 1959, making it early in its production run. This example features a beautiful case with well-preserved lines, but the real star of this watch is the dial. This dial has aged to a warm off-white color with signs of age under the hand stack in an even, appealing manner. Age also makes itself known at the perimeter of the dial, but without intruding too far into the dial’s center.
This particular 114210 is available from Bob’s Watches and gets a silver dial with blue lume hour-markers. The turned bezel is a throwback touch, while the rest of the watch attempts to push ahead, making this something of an outlier when it comes to Rolex watches of this era. This watch uses the same caliber 3130 you’d find in other dateless watches from Rolex, such as the Explorer 1 and the Submariner.
