Happy New Year to all

 

Thanks for sharing all the great pics and chats this year.

Wishing you all the best for the year to come.

Here’s a final shot for the year of the watch that was on my wish list at the start of 2023 and I was delighted to get the call for in Feb. I have greatly enjoyed putting through its paces ever since 😀, here it is in a beautiful Swedish lake this week.

Good health to you all. D.

Glad to see you’re treating your AirKing like the honest sport watch it is +++

Thanks you!

I promised myself when I got it that I wouldn’t mollycoddle it, and I’m mostly succeeding 😀 Happy new year!

Thanks Bill

But I could not resist it, which sounds a weird thing to be tempted by 🤔

Thanks Brandon!

Hard to believe but winter swimming is really popular here, so I guess living with the crazy Danes has rubbed off a bit. Have a great 24.

Took the plunge in the swedish lakes. Brave man!!!

I’m looking to get the Air King this spring. Are you happy with yours? Any issues? Does it run within the -2 + 2 daily spec? Best wishes for a happy and healthy 2024.

Great to hear you are looking at the AirKing. I’m very happy with mine, I like the fact that it’s a bit of an odd ball Rolex. I bought it as a casual watch that I can wear and enjoy on a daily basis and for me it fits that perfectly. I have not had any ti... 

Very nice Airking, dear Drek!

I bought its predecessor for my son for his 18. birthday. A great watch he loves immensely and wears almost day and night. 🙏☺️ All the best Thomas ...  

Thanks Thomas

That’s great to hear your son wears his watch daily. I like the previous interation too and it was the model that originally caught my eye 😀

What I definitely like more on your version is

the „05“ instead of the „5“ on the dial. For my taste more logical in terms of design. On the other hand I am not sure / indifferent regarding the optical effect of the new crown guards. They make sense for sure (design should always follow function), but...
