[powerfunk]

Good post, Larry!

For the record I'm inclined to agree with my buddy joe100's research determining the 6500 and 7784 Air Kings probably never existed. I'm thinking somebody looked at the number inside the caseback instead of between the lugs, put it in a book, and the rest is history.

[Edgardro]

What about dress watches 1940's-50's?

[DG123]

Current Rolex Air King is reference #116900.

[scooba]

Great Post ,

A few missing. 116500 , 126710, 126600

[Spectre38]

I didn't see the Oysterdate Precision 6694... did I miss it?

[koshiru]

Daytona 116503 missing

[dknt88]

lets also not forget the current DSSD 126660

[SeeDweller]

Larry,
Thank you SO very much for the work it took to put this list together. While some of you have all of this in your minds, some of us still need these references.
I was just looking at a listing for an older DD, and I saw that he had papers for a Ref 6611. I was SURE that this was not a ref for a DayDate, and had all kinds of bad things going on in my head.
Checked your list, and . . . sure enough, there's the 6611 in the DD list! Powerful to have information, it is!
Thank you again for your devotion to TRF!

[dknt88]

Also forgot to mention these 3 studs:

1) white gold GMT2 ref# 126719BLRO (blue or meteorite)
2) Everose gold GMT2 ref# 126715CHNR (rootbeer)
3) "high jewelry" white gold Submariner Date w/ factory sapphire & diamond bezel/case lugs/crown guards, ref# 116659SABR

[koshiru]

Great stuffs Larry, very useful reference, thanks for compiling!

[foxytimes]

Impressive list. May I add the DD 181xx models like 18108, 18129 or 18148 with their diamond bezels or alternate sapphire and diamond bezels? Thanks for the compilation.

[onemoreplease]

Thank you all for these reference numbers. May I also add Ref# 116600
This is a Seadweller SD4K 4000. Produced 2014-2017.
Thanks
