Yeah, I’m inclined to agree with this. I read this as Explorer II for some reason.
Have you seen how much they’ve come down in price? On this side of the Atlantic they’re selling for $5500-5999 all day long.
Edit: to clarify, I mean 14270 and 114270s.
JB-
Explorer 1s still expensive in the UK.
Found a 14010 and 14010m and these aren't too far away from that explorer 1 price if they come down in the UK. I would expect one to be a bit less than that hopefully.... maybe 3k14010/14010m very similar, the 'm' has the 3130 movement vs the 3000 but both look solid

If I were in your situation, I’d wait, keep saving and get the Explorer 1. It feels like the watch you really want, the Air-King really is very similar to the Speedking other than size. Some early Air-King-Date’s are 35mm btw if every mm counts…
