No previous sales of any kind, 14 buys only, bad picture, only one picture, the watch looks bad like the Rolex crown on the dial does not look right but you cannot tell what it is because it is so unclear. I am going to ask him to post better pictures.

I know AirKing with dates are rare and they do exist, but the photo needs to be clearer.

Yes, there are two Air King references that come with a date function: the 5700 and 5701, the so-called 'Air King Date' models
The latter however, does looks like a Date(just)..

5700


5701

precisely
I had to look very close-but indeed it says date.
I dont know if it was an accident,but It would make me a little concerned.

He never responded so I reported him. Let E-Bay sort it out.
