    As a point of reference, the Air King is 34mm while Submariners are 40mm.

    If you like the sub but are concerned about size, look into the Tudor Prince Submariner. It was offered in a midsize at 36.5mm (same size as a Rolex DateJust).

    In 1990, I had the opp to buy a near-new Air King w/blue dial for $300. Didn't do it because I wanted a date watch, ended up with my Datejust, paid $1300. Still have it.

    My daily desk diver lately.

    It's time to get a new watch into the rotation but hard to find ones I like more than the ones I already have

    Y'all play in a different league than I do, but this was my 10th anniversary present from my wife and I just can't stop staring at it. Citizen Moon Phase Eco-Drive from their Signature Collection, got to be the most beautiful watch I own, really makes me think of brass-era quality and style. It was a replacement for the Eco-Drive she bought me when we got married, that recently gave up the ghost. Definitely a step up. :D

    That's a very nice gesture Chris, but considering all your support, it would be my pleasure to purchase it from you, but what a gift to have it customized though!

    Nice. Looks classy on your wrist.
    I like the Roman Numerals on the face - gives it a somewhat different look.

    You even have it set to the correct date - Friday the 13th. :)

    Thanks, I like the face too. I had one years ago that was the same but with a plain gold face. I like this one better :)
