Opinion needed
I’m looking to add another piece to my collection and have narrowed down my options to either an Air-King or an Explorer 1. I’ve had the opportunity to try on the Explorer and definitely noticed how light and comfortable it is but want to try on the Air-King in person first. Just for reference i currently own a 114060 and a 116710LN.

Explorer I gets my vote, especially considering your other two watches.

Explorer I over the AK. I don't like the new AK aesthetic. It's too busy IMO.

I like them both - you can’t go wrong.
I like the Explorer because it is timeless and the AK because it is different. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Explorer gets my vote. Although biased owning one and the 114060 what is a perfect combo imho.
It´s all down to personal preference of course but the AK is a tad too different for my taste |

Explorer I gets my vote. The dial of Air-King 116900 is too busy.

Explorer 1. It wears well. It’s my daily wearer.
