Rolex Air King Black

Rolex reference numbers 14000, 116900, and 126900 are all available in the black dial option. The Rolex Air-king is available in a few different dial options. These include the black dial, white dial, blue dial, and salmon-pink dial. The most popular of these variations is the black dial Rolex Air-King. This particular watch signifies the classic styling of the watch and makes the numerals more prominent and easier to read.   The salmon pink and blue dial options are unavailable on the latest variant and were limited to Air-King reference number 14000. Denoting that a particular dial color is the best is purely subjective. While some might prefer the salmon-colored dial, others like the white one. Therefore, we have stated that the Rolex Air-King Black dial is the most popular model based on its demand and growing sales. Not only that, but the numbers speak for themselves. It is why Rolex decided to offer the latest Air-King reference no. 126900 in a black dial option only.
