Presenting an exceptional 1990 Rolex Oyster Perpetual Air-King Date ref. 14000, featuring a stunning Midnight Blue dial that gives this neo-vintage classic a distinctive and sophisticated character. Paired with the model’s signature smooth rounded bezel and perfectly proportioned 34mm stainless steel case, it embodies the understated elegance that has made the Air-King such an enduring favourite among collectors.

At its heart is the highly regarded automatic Calibre 3000 movement, renowned for its reliability, accuracy, and robust performance. Retaining its original Oyster bracelet, this Air-King offers the timeless versatility and everyday wearability synonymous with Rolex.

What truly sets this example apart is its extraordinary provenance. Accompanied by its original inner and outer boxes with Rolex cushion, original certificate and follow-up authentication certificate, original purchase receipt, instruction manuals, Rolex calendar, secondary sales receipt, and Rolex wallet, it comes with one of the most comprehensive paper trails we have ever seen on a vintage watch.

A remarkable opportunity to acquire a beautifully preserved Air-King with exceptional documentation, collectability, and enduring Rolex appeal.
