A Rolex Unlike Any Other
The Iconic Legacy
The Rolex Air-King occupies a unique place within Rolex’s Professional collection.
Originally introduced in the 1940s, the Air-King was created to honour the pioneering aviators of Britain’s Royal Air Force following the Second World War. It became one of the longest-running names in Rolex history, representing precision, resilience and the spirit of aviation.
Reference 126900 marked the most significant evolution of the Air-King in decades.
Introduced in 2022, it refined the bold aviation-inspired dial while incorporating Rolex’s latest engineering advances. With redesigned crown guards, a straighter case profile and the exceptional Calibre 3230 movement, the 126900 elevated the Air-King into a thoroughly modern professional sports watch while preserving the character that has always made it different.
Unlike the Submariner, GMT-Master or Explorer, the Air-King has never followed the crowd. It has always stood apart.

The Air-King has always appealed to collectors who enjoy owning something a little different.
Its bold dial, combining large minute numerals with the iconic Rolex logo in green and matching green seconds hand, gives it an unmistakable personality. There is simply nothing else in the Rolex catalogue quite like it.
The upgraded Calibre 3230 provides a 70-hour power reserve, outstanding reliability and Rolex’s latest movement technology, making it every bit as capable mechanically as it is visually distinctive.
Presented as a complete set in immaculate condition, this is an exceptional opportunity to own one of Rolex’s newest Professional references.
Iconic Status
The rebel of the Rolex Professional collection.
While many Rolex Professional watches were designed for divers, mountaineers or international travellers, the Air-King celebrates aviation in a completely different way.
Its unusual dial layout is inspired by cockpit instrumentation, prioritising readability while creating one of the most recognisable designs in modern watchmaking. The introduction of reference 126900 refined that concept further, giving the Air-King a more purposeful case and Rolex’s latest generation movement.
For collectors, that individuality is exactly what makes it so appealing.
It is a Rolex that doesn’t try to imitate anything else. Instead, it has built its own identity over more than seventy years of continuous evolution.
