As you know, I bought this Rolex Air King 116 900 and enjoyed it immensely for two weeks before it has been stolen to me.
But sometimes, a bad thing can generate a good thing.
Thanks to the incredible generosity of this Community, I received another Air King, yesterday, to replace the stolen one.
I am very moved by all the initiatives, generosity, solidarity and efforts from you all, gentlemen and friends.
Thanks to Michael C for having made this possible, to Christian In Denmark for gathering all the funds, to Mike H for his efforts in finding an Air King, which is not that easy, to Arie the crazy Dutchman, for having taken 5 hours of his time to pick the watch and to the Rolex AD, for keeping one available, which is not such an easy thing, and to each of you, for your generosity, support and messages of friendship.
I still don't know what to say or write, I am so moved by this chain of gestures.
Another important thing is that my daughter was present, when I picked the watch in Spain, and when I received it this Saturday. The Air King is a watch she loves a lot. She was very sad, when she was told that the watch was stolen, and very surprised and moved to see it replaced.
I will develop later on the watch, but I first wanted to thank you all.
Let's celebrate that moment with some pictures freshly taken, yesterday.
And a static shot, to end in beauty.
Once again, thank you, thank you, thank you...
All the best,
Nicolas
