The first commercially available 1:1 replica Rolex Air-King debuted in 1958, hot off the heels of the GMT-Master. These were the glory days of smoking cigarettes in first class PanAm seats. But the original perfect fake Rolex Air-King came about during the 1930s “Golden Age of Flight”, when pilots were honing aircraft engineering and commercial flight existed only in their imaginations.

The original Rolex Air-King replica for sale featured enlarged 3, 6 and 9 numerals (much like the Rolex Explorer), rendering its dial legible mid-flight, but was far simpler in build than the GMT-Master. Now, celebrating its 65th year, the Air-King has undergone several evolutions; but you may recognise the name from its association with the now certified-grail Domino’s Pizza luxury fake Rolex.

These are simply aaa quality replica Rolex Air-Kings customised with the Domino’s logo, gifted to top earners within the company. During the time, somewhere in the ‘80s and ‘90s, the Air-King was known as a ‘starter Swiss movement copy Rolex’ with an $800 price tag, and yet this was enough to incentivise employees. Now, these Domino’s Air-Kings are sought after amongst a whimsically-minded type of collector and have skyrocketed in value on the secondary market, trading for as high as $19K. That’s a lot of dough!
