New Rolex Air King Date!

[RonnyColbie]

Hey guys,

So I purchased a 5700N Rolex Air King Date today and I have a few questions...

1) When buying the watch it came with the Oyster Band and tho the oyster band is nice sadly I like the Jubilee much better... So my question is... Why when I asked the lady at the sales booth to put on a Jubilee band she said she couldn't do that because Rolex doesn't allow people to change the band because it takes away from the original design and that is illegal? Sounds silly to me if the watch is real and so is the Jubilee band??????

2) If I do go to a private guy and have him switch the band for me if ever I send my watch into rolex do you suggest I take the band off and just send the watch in one its own for servicing? and is the really illegal?

3) Is the Rolex Air King Date really a watch that is collectable? The person at the shop said that the Rolex Air King Date was only distributed to the Commonwealth countries and not many of them were made, so basically my watch would never lose its value...

I paid $1800 for the watch and its in beautiful condition... did I get a good deal?


thanks!

Ron
