Airking 114234 has 18k white gold bezel. It is the only airking in the current line with a gold bezel.

Yes but it's a sapphire crystal. The 114234 bezel won't fit a 5500

.

In the 90's there was in 34mm AK 140xx SS only and model OP 34mm 142xx with gold.

If you can source the following bezel, it will fit an AK :

I don't think so, cause the cases aren't the same. But it needs to be tried to be sure ...

All Air Kings are 34mm (except the 5504 which is 35mm). Bezels are never interchangeable between sapphire and acrylic models as far as I know.
