Thanks for all the pics Larry, this one has caught my eye. Can you tell us please what's that blue lume? Please don't say "blue lume."

But, that's exactly what it is.............. Luminova can be tinted a variety of colors, and in this case....Blue In the new Millgauss it comes in orange, and there are some models with pink and green..

Someone posted that the Air-King would be 36mm by July 2008. See the comment in this article. Can anybody confirm?

I don't think so, but there will be 36 mm Oyster Perpetuals with all brushed links and case just as the Air-King. Those were advertised at Basel this year. Check out the Rolex web site.

The Air King Precision's look really good. But I like mine, which is a newer version with silver dial, white lume. Seems more rugged for some reason.

Well, 34mm is fine on me.... I should send a wrist shot in - I am only a little chap and got skinny wrists - I have tried on 40mm watches and they look ridiculous on me! And the AK lines are so-o-o-o classic - I feel like I'm wearing my grandad's watch!
For me, these bigger style watches are a possibly a temporary fashion statement and I think if I caved in and went for bigger, I'd regret it in the future. |

The latest Air King with the Blue Arabic 3-6-9 dial looks well good.
