2001 Rolex Air-King 14010 Silver Dial

Case: The unpolished 34m case is excellent, showing light to average wear from use. The stainless steel engine turned bezel is also in excellent unpolished condition, showing light wear from use.

Dial: The silver dial is excellent, showing no visible wear. The original factory hands are matching.

Bracelet: The 12-link Oyster bracelet is excellent, showing only very light stretch for its age. The clasp is stamped with a matching 2001 date code.

Accessories: None.

Notes This particular watch has some funny and unique wear to it that is definitely not from being actually worn. The sharpness of the graining of the unpolished case, the clean sticker, and the stiff clasp all lead me to believe that the wear it shows is from sitting in someone's top draw for the last 24 years. Occasionally bumping against a set of keys, maybe a AAA battery, or some change every time the draw is opened or closed. Why someone would decide to bench this watch rather than wear it is beyond me. But I hope whoever ends up with it gives it a much more exciting second life.
