Nothing Un-Rolex about an AK. Nice watch.

Crazy how I hated AKs and now they look awesome. Such a different watch compared to regular lineup

Thought this was a Cellini, that's a standard Rolex, more so in fact due to the Rolex colours, enjoy!

Not sure what you mean by unrolex. The Air King is classic and this new one is great. Enjoy

Just after reading the other forums it gets very controversial commrnts, some "purists" say it goes against the grain and it's "confusing". One reason I like it.
