The air king also is anti magnetic like the milgauss. That alone makes it a steal.
Not anymore
The explorer is extremely bland. The Air King is striking and quite unique. Air King all the way.
Dude, the gloves. They're so distracting. Either get gloves that fit or take then off. Please.
Airking has the anti magnetic cage for the movement that's the reason it is thicker
That's right, but anti magnetic cage sounds like a joke compare to the Omega's 8xxx calibers.
@@mstislav007 rolex use si spring in tudor its more like budget option
@@mstislav007 true, but 4500gauss protection is still better than nothing. it's not the 15000 the omegas have, but it'll suffice for most fields encountered on a daily basis
I love the Air King and have one. People hate on it just because.
same I love mine! i was so leaning towards and Explorer, until my AD had both and I was able to try both on. went AK!

It's a real toss up for me. Love the dial numbers on the air king, but the explorer's lume looks better.
Thanks for the comparison!
Hi everyone. Great review and I have owned and sold every sports Rolex including the Sub, GMT, Explorer 1 and 2. Hindsight is a great thing 😢. Anyway I bought the Air King last month from my AD and it outshines them all. A unique Rolex and this one will be passed down to my son!
Im happy for you Mr. Allen
Did you mention gauss cage
Keep 'em coming guys, you're my equal favourite watch channel!
I owned the 214270 Mk2 but didn't keep it for long, just didn't really bond with the look and wearability of it.
But I've owned my Milgauss (exactly the same case as AK) for over a year and absolutely love it. The 40mm AK case wears like a dream, looks awesome and feels super comfy. The Expy 39 looked and felt a bit like a dinner plate on my wrist.
The Air King has a little bit more wrist presence than the Explorer.
Well said Drew. It really has and compared to that Milgauus with the Micky Mouse second had ....no brainer
@@andrewallen2038 Yes, that second hand on the Milgauss is a total deal-breaker.
The Air-King looks like it should cost $2500 more than the Explorer
Rolex Airking is named “Rolex Bloodhound”
RARE KINGS ONLY!
also sir you forgot about the soft iron cage
Jack Tsai what do you mean by that?
3131 is with magneticshield and is 2mm thicker.
I'd also throw into this comparison the 39mm Oyster Perpetual. I think it's a three horse race between the three of them. Here is the 39mm Oyster Perpetual -- th-cam.com/video/cV-5fTeXgQU/w-d-xo.html
Seriously? .. Apple loops library for your music 🤣 . I was using that piece for background music for a podcast in 2005. Ah well .. guess I appreciate the callback. And the Air King is superb. So much so I recently bought one.
The Air King is starting to get hard to get which tells you something.
these watches are not “very very similar”. the air king is more similar to the milgauss
I bought a new Explorer 214270 last year and totally love it. It is endlessly satisfying to wear and beautifully made. The bracelet and clasp are wonderful. Love it to bits. Would never buy an Air King or Milguass, they are both just party tricks that get unfunny very quickly. Also you are showing the old Explorer which was cheaper than the $6500 you quote. The new one, my version, has lumed 3-6-9 and bigger hands. It's a beauty.
I too noticed he was showing the older Explorer which isn't as nice as the newer one, the lume on the 3, 6, 9, is a necessity and the shorter minute hand on the older Explorer looks awkward.
Explorer is understated and almost bland but won't date
I believe people purchase the Air King because they think the price will skyrocket after Rolex retires the model. And it will. I love my Explorer I
I definetely prefer the Explorer over the Airking
Is ex more thinner??
Yes.
Air King has itt by a mile, dial, case build, hands, Flieger numeration, & large crown, would love to own itt. Thanx. P.S. Tx
UUGH, this guy is the worst!
[looking at the watches]
One of the most noticeable differences is the price?
And then he says it’s only a hundred dollars!🤯
poor watch... on your hands..
I have rolex explorer
Explorer is so dull and uninspiring
Airking is king milguss movement
I personally think the new airking is a joke
At least your watch won t look generic every time you see other people wearing it
Explorer is the best!
