would be very nice. I would think with a little bit of searching a nice one could be found within your price range. I am personally looking for a vintage Air-King and when the right one comes around I'll know it. Enjoy your search.

For Airking you need to change the clasp for a shorter one, specially for woman. They only have this short clasp for the 19mm bracelet. Best Walter ...  

Here the short clasp!

I tend to agree with Nicolas on a Vintage Rolex Air king. In addition you can dress the watch for every occasion.

You can buy colorful nato straps or vintage leather or even colorful leather. It will make the Air King a queen for every occasion. ...
