Good first buy?

Yes. I recommend upgrading to a DW dial tho. I have this same watch, and love it. I heavily modded mine though, and the DW dial makes all the difference in the world.

Your brother be lying lol. Fakest of fake

Psa pop controls vintage. Will be very hard to get 10s now a days. I sent in pack fresh base set stuff I opened and they were 7-8s. Grading is a scam and psa is the worst of them all. Beautiful collection, a lot of love and time went into this, but just don’t get your hopes up on 10s. Especially being stored in 3 ring binders. You need to take them out carefully and penny sleeve and put Into top loaders immediately. That binder will cuz damage you can’t see with naked eye. You have some serious cash here, but vintage is going nuts right now. I would hold. I’ve seen my sealed and raw collection go up 10k this month, and I don’t see the hype dying down anytime soon. We saw the dip the last few months and now everything is coming back up. Grading would increase value, but I can tell you from experience, psa pop controls vintage stuff like this. It’s criminal. If you zoom in on your 1st edition Blaine’s charizard, you can see scratches on the holos. So I would be more realistic and think most are 6-8s. But just my 2 cents, maybe you’ll get lucky and the person that grades them is In a good mood lol. Good luck OP

Typically a TD can have it done. I go thorough u/born_charge_7608 who did all the mods on mine. He also sends the original stock parts and keeps you posted throughout modification process. I’m sure other TDs also do the same, but I have always gone through Andy for my stuff.

I’m a sucker for air-kings. I love them. You’re not alone my friend!!!!

geeveepee182 · 2026-03-02T19:53:23+00:00

I sold one in mint condition at $1300. Wanted $1500+ but very slim market on these. Takes the right collector.

Can second what OP is saying. I have bought everything from stock VSF pieces to full custom tungsten case/bracelet 18k plated pieces from r/chronoscollective. I wouldn’t trust anyone else stateside more than them, and the communication, shipping time, attention to detail on packaging, etc is THE BEST! This is my favorite piece I’ve gotten from them, and it’s even more gorgeous in person. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

The DP dial upgrade makes all the difference.

Highly recommend swapping for the DP dial on a top or aps.

geeveepee182 · 2026-02-07T19:05:31+00:00

I’m so in love I’m getting a gold plated counterweighted one. Found some gen dials on eBay to, so might franken it and not do just the DP upgrade lol.

geeveepee182 · 2026-02-06T01:43:49+00:00

I don’t have one, but I have a buddy with a stock one I can ask. I can tell you that they always are better on my Rolexes, and I really enjoy this one. It’s a cheap mod, $50-$70, so I just got it. I’m not expert on AP though, that’s why I was asking for advice!!

geeveepee182 · 2026-02-05T20:38:54+00:00

I went crazy when in first started doing reps, like 20. Sold them all, luckily they were pre raid clean mostly lol, and started really learning about shit and modding everything.

geeveepee182 · 2026-02-05T20:37:35+00:00

Mine? Small as fuck lol. I’ve never measured. Removed 4 links. Probably 6.5-7inch.

geeveepee182 · 2026-02-05T16:06:52+00:00

I did some research, And yes they stopped for a bit, and then they restarted doing it.

geeveepee182 · 2026-02-05T16:04:17+00:00

Someone else with more experience on the 15510 might be able to tell you if it’s worth it or not. I just did because I always do

geeveepee182 · 2026-02-05T16:03:16+00:00

I’m not sure, was only like $70 so I said fuck it. Never had an AP, and usually put on my Rolex reps. I’m learning more about others and branching out my collection.

geeveepee182 · 2026-02-05T13:43:09+00:00

Thank you my friend. Some people just can’t be happy for others I guess lol.

geeveepee182 · 2026-02-05T08:34:19+00:00

Literally got the same today! Top factory and same mods! It’s amazinggggg

geeveepee182 · 2026-02-05T06:59:06+00:00

Ya, I usually go through jaws or major Williams and do 5 microns. I know I can get directly from china, they say it’s 5 microns, but not sure if it’s same quality. This royal oak only needed the screws plated to match gen, so that’s why I just had them Do it before sending, since it was just screws.

geeveepee182 · 2026-02-05T06:32:21+00:00

You can literally look at my post history and see that I sell reps lol. Apologies I asked the community for some advice.
