AD called; I responded. My latest acquisition.

The underrated Air King, but I love it! On a Rubber B strap.

Congratulations. Looks great. Did you put the rubber b on yourself or did the AD do it for you. The reason I ask is that my AD refused to put the Everest rubber band on for me. Said they could get in trouble from Rolex.

Thanks for the compliments. From photos, I wasn't too sure I’d like it but it’s vastly different in person. I love it. I put on the rubber strap myself No problem; I have several Everests and Rubber Bs.

PS. The black rubber strap has emerald green flanks. A novel style from Rubber B.

Awesome!! Congrats! Such a great watch and it only gets better as the days and weeks pass. I received the call a month ago for mine and I am amazed daily by the never ending personalty. I promised my son one of my others if I got the call so he's happy too now with a five digit black beauty gmt.

Enjoy it in good health!

Very nice.

I recall seeing one on similar black strap with a green stripe.

Not sure of the strap brand?
