Air King question
Hey guys,
I've never seen air king on the dial with that typography. But I think that´s quite an early Air king too. Give it a look, Is the rial real of aftermarket? Thanks http://www.ebay.com/itm/ROLEX-VINTAG...item41830ec978 |

Just realized something, does it actually say "SUPERLATIV CHRONOMETER"? Or is it just me?

Definitely a re-done or fake dial. 1005 was an Oyster Perpetual anyway, but Air Kings did often have a 1005 case back fitted originally. It all depends on what the side of the case says, and I can't see that.
