The first quarter of 2022 sees Rolex releasing the latest creations of its emblematic timepieces. With their enhanced aesthetics and technologies, the new watches serve as a testament to the brand’s perpetual quest for excellence. Rolex, with its in-house mastery of watchmaking expertise, ensures that the timepieces offer the same promise of outstanding quality as their predecessors. As with all Rolex watches, each one comes with Superlative Chronometer certification, its status symbolised by the green seal, and is offered with an international five-year guarantee.
OYSTER PERPETUAL AIR-KING
The new-generation Air-King continues to celebrate the pioneers of aviation, offering enhancements that provide optimal navigational time readings. Presented in a completely redesigned 40 mm Oyster case, it sports a crown guard and straight sides like the majority of Professional category models. Its distinctive black dial displays 3, 6, and 9 numerals marking the hours and a prominent minute scale which, thanks to the addition of a '0' before the '5', features a more balanced appearance as each five-minute interval is now marked by two digits. An optimised Chromalight display with long-lasting blue luminescence guarantees maximum legibility in dark conditions. The same material, which is exclusive to Rolex, also fills or coats the hands and triangular hour marker at 12 o'clock and the 3, 6, and 9 numerals, ensuring higher visibility. In a first for the model, its Oyster bracelet, which sees its center link broadened, comes equipped with an Oysterlock safety clasp. The self-winding calibre 3230 nestled within enables the display of hours, minutes, and seconds, and offers a power reserve of approximately 70 hours.
