The Rolex company was founded in the early 20th century by Hans Wilsdorf and his brother. They began the company under a different name and moved it from Britain to Switzerland for tax reasons. After the move they renamed the company to Rolex Sa. Hans was determined to created a timepiece that was not only well above standards, but also affordable to the average person. Not realizing those two traits rarely go hand in hand, Rolex quickly became recognized as an elite among other watch companies. Many Rolex watches were designed to be useful instruments in the worlds of diving, racing, yachting, and flying.
In 1940, during WWII, Hans was intrigued by the fighting skills of the RAF against Hitlers Nazi movement. Winston Churchill had dubbed a select group as the few, and Rolex Sa produced a line to honor them which had appropriate names such as Air Giant, Air Lion, Air Tiger, and Air King. The Air line continued until the 1960s but the air King remained to continue on to be one of the greats in Rolex production.
Because of the cost of great watches, there has become a demand for a quality timepiece which is affordable to the average person. One of the results would be the replica watches. Almost identical, this replica has almost the same movement, design, and characteristics as the original. Stainless steel case and bracelet along with the automatic movement make this replica a watch in demand.
The Air King is made with the perpetual motion, much like the Rolex Air King replica watch, and has 904L steel case and bracelet which make it extremely hard to tell them apart. The advantage to the replica, though, is in the cost. The replicas are on the average about $7000 cheaper than originals. This fact makes it difficult to justify the expense when you are getting everything you need in a great watch.
