This is the first Rolex we ever photographed at Baselworld. Today, I somehow regret my choice of not getting a Rolex reference 114234, since it is pretty hard to find one, it is still very appealing and, if you manage to get your hands on a (new) one, you can forget about paying its original price. That blue dial with its big applied Arabic numbers in an orange hue boasted a richness and a mixture of colours that somehow broke the linearity of most of the Rolex Oyster timepieces.įor a brief moment, I experienced the very same sensations when I got to see reference Rolex 116000, but, somehow, I couldn’t quite feel the same warmth that the Rolex Air King radiated and those 2 extra millimeters of the case were not enough to convince me to take the final step. Some years ago, I almost bought a Rolex Air King reference 114234 but the 34mm– diameter case represented (and still does) a psychological limit I couldn’t possibly overcome, probably because of the size of my wrist that equals 20cm approximate.
