Air-king Oyster, 40 Mm, Steel Oystersteel - 116900

• With its 40 mm Oystersteel case, solid-mesh Oyster bracelet, and distinctive black dial, the Air-King continues the aeronautical tradition of the original Oyster. The Air-King's iconic black dial combines large hour numerals—3, 6, and 9—with a prominent minute scale, allowing for optimal reading of sailing times. It bears the name "Air-King," inscribed with characters specially created for this model in the 1950s.

• Oystersteel:  Rolex uses Oystersteel to manufacture many of its watch components. Developed specifically for the brand, Oystersteel belongs to the 904L family of steels, alloys primarily used in the high-tech, aeronautical, and chemical industries, where maximum corrosion resistance is essential. Oystersteel is extremely durable, offers a high-quality finish after polishing, and retains all its beauty, even in the most hostile environments.

• The Oyster bracelet:  The Oyster bracelet is a perfect alchemy of form and function, aesthetics and technology, designed to be both robust and comfortable. It is equipped with an Oysterlock folding clasp, which prevents accidental opening, and the Easylink quick-release system, a Rolex exclusive. This ingenious system allows the bracelet length to be easily adjusted by approximately 5 mm, ensuring additional comfort in all circumstances.

• Movement 3131: This movement is a self-winding mechanical movement manufactured by Rolex. It is chronometer-certified by the COSC and offers excellent precision and reliability. It has a power reserve of approximately 48 hours.
