Looking for 40mm air king case

[tony5haw2013]

Hi,

 

Im looking to buy a good quality, as close to gen 40mm case for the 14100.

 

Any ideas on vendors? I have seen some with rafflesdials but they look a bit too cheap to be true to the gen. Any advice here before i decide and buy one?

Welcome aboard!

I think you may be confused- the model 14000 Air King is a 34mm watch. The newer model- 116900 is 40 mm.

I don't know where you'd get the case by itself- might just be easier to buy the whole rep. Since it's a new model, parts aren't yet available for building one- you could always check ebay, but it typically takes a few years for the rep mfrs to catch up.

It probably wouldn't be too hard to find 14000 Air King parts since that models been out for a long time. The 5500 AK has been out even longer- since 1960 or so, I believe.

Thanks for the reply. I ended up going for a noob v10 submariner 116610 3135. Hoping to pick up some gen parts and build a franken that way. Have automatic assembly with rotor on the way. Looking for gen insert next.
