Incoming Air King 116900
Called into my A.D today to look at a Datejust. After looking at a few none sang to me.
I asked when they were expecting the new Baselworld watches to arrive. "Just had a delivery" he says, we have one in stock now, out comes the plastic coffin with a totally unworn Air King. I try it on and am very impressed. I go out of the store to wear it in daylight, being followed by a security guard. Apart from removing the stickers its not left my wrist since. that green logo. iPhone photo
