Brand New Air-King (3months waitlist)

Hi All,

Just got my Air-King last week and I gotta say it is absolutely stunning, especially when you actually see it than in pictures.

I have a question that has been bothering me ever since I got it resized. How many links of the bracelet (oyster) does it come with from the AD?

Posting pics soon!

Thank you!

Yessir, I got 11 right now on it and 1 in the box. Dont know why I suspected another 1 was removed, felt a lil tighter than I imagined it would be. Also thought it came with 13 link for some odd reason

Also don't forget to try opening up the Easylink in the clasp, if it's feeling snug.

I got the version that takes the OG clasp. There’s a pin buckle version too. I went with Everest because they’re the only ones I saw with a full green option.

The AK oyster only comes with 12 links, no extra is included. I had one link removed to fit correctly, so I have one extra link..
