Rolex Air-Tiger pic

Does any one here have a picture of an original Rolex Air-tiger. Not one of the later Tudor air-tiger but and original Rolex air-Tiger.

Thanks,
Gantrell

Thanks for the pic but no, That is a vintage air king, but back in the 40's and 50's there were multiple "air" lines out simultaneously, Air king, Air Lion, Air Giant and Air Tiger. Later Tudor had a model called the Air-Tiger also. However I am hunting for a picture of the original Rolex Air-Tiger. But until now it has been very elusive.

Thanks,

Where is your guess of where this thread is going? The OP requested a photo of a specific model Rolex, simple as that.

I'm not sure why you would consider the Bartmoon "smilie" to be appropriate.

There was a Rolex Air-Tiger and I'll do my best to find a picture of one.

Posts such as these really belong in the Vintage Forum, where all the vintage experts hang out.

Here's one. I don't know if it's the one you're looking for, though.
