I am now officially an Air King club member :-)
Hello everyone,
This is it - I purchased last saturday my first Rolex, a mint january 2000 Rolex Air King, Oyster band with a black dial, 34mm, recently serviced. I just can't take this stupid smile away from my face since then. david |

007= No, I bought it at a jeweller last saturday but now I can't remember the name - not Sadan for sure though. I will check the certificate again... I brought it at Nisantasi's Rolex AD and they opened it up for me to check the inside + serial under the band, and also have a look at the joints and so on... this watch is wonderful.
thanks for your feedback everyone ! (but really i think i look really weird, looking at my wrist constantly... i guess it will fade away in time :-) |
