	The 114200 is the modern Air-King: launched at Baselworld 2007, dropped from the catalogue in 2014, a 34mm steel Oyster running Cal. 3130 with a Parachrom hairspring. It is also the first chronometer-rated Air-King in the line's history. Every earlier reference ran sub-COSC, with dials reading "PRECISION" or "SUPER PRECISION"; the 114200 arrives with "SUPERLATIVE CHRONOMETER OFFICIALLY CERTIFIED" on the dial and the Air-King finally joins the tier the rest of the Rolex catalogue had occupied for decades.

Clarify 114200 2007-2020 reading: reference number reused for OP-34 post-2014, not continuous Air-King production (primary-sourced via rolex.com Wayback)

	A few secondary outlets stretch the run "until 2016," which conflates the discontinuation with the line's return on a different reference. The primary editorial — Monochrome, Siems, Robb Report — consistently gives 2014 as the production end. 2007–2014 is the active span.		A few secondary outlets stretch the run "until 2016," which conflates the discontinuation with the line's return on a different reference. The primary editorial — Monochrome, Siems, Robb Report — consistently gives 2014 as the production end. 2007–2014 is the active span.

			Rolex's own archived catalogue offers a likely explanation for the 2007–2020 reading some specialist sources give. The bare reference number 114200 does not disappear from rolex.com after 2014 — it stays live on the official site through August 2020, then drops out entirely by September 2020, the same week Rolex replaced the standard Oyster Perpetual line's 116000, 114300 and 176200/177200 with 126000, 124300 and 277200. That later run of 114200 carries plain "OYSTER PERPETUAL" dial text rather than "AIR-KING" — Rolex appears to have reassigned the reference number to the Oyster Perpetual 34 once the Air-King name moved off it in 2014, rather than continuing Air-King production to 2020. A source reading '2007–2020' is most plausibly tracking that reused catalogue number rather than a continuous Air-King run. This article's 2007–2014 Air-King figure stands; the 2014–2020 continuation is a different watch under the same number and is not covered here.

	The reference is recent enough that most surviving examples are documented through dealer-market sales rather than catalogued auction lots. Christie's is the exception: the "Jewels and Watches Online: La Dolce Vita" sale 21040, lot 136, a full-set Domino's Pizza 114200 from c.2013 with case number 96A51575. Phillips, Sotheby's, Bonhams and Antiquorum have not catalogued the reference.

	The 114200 runs Cal. 3130, the same movement fitted to the contemporary 14060M Submariner and the ~~14270~~ Explorer and used across the Rolex time-only catalogue from 1999 / 2000 through 2018: 28,800 vph (4 Hz), roughly 48 hours of reserve, hacking seconds, bidirectional self-winding, and the blue paramagnetic Parachrom hairspring Rolex rolled out from c.2005, present on the 114200 from launch.		The 114200 runs Cal. 3130, the same movement fitted to the contemporary 14060M Submariner and the [[Reference:114270\|114270 Explorer]] and used across the Rolex time-only catalogue from 1999 / 2000 through 2018: 28,800 vph (4 Hz), roughly 48 hours of reserve, hacking seconds, bidirectional self-winding, and the blue paramagnetic Parachrom hairspring Rolex rolled out from c.2005, present on the 114200 from launch.

	Jewel count is contested. Erik Slaven at Monochrome and Robb Report both read the 114200-era Cal. 3130 as a 31-jewel movement, up from the 27 jewels of the Cal. 3000 in the [[Reference:14000#movement-notes\|14000 era]]; Marcus Siems' Air-King family history gives 27. The 31-jewel figure holds the majority position, and nothing in the production record points to a running change inside the reference. The disagreement reads as a source error rather than as two configurations.		Jewel count is contested.

	The 2014 retirement is similarly consensus. The Air-King line is dropped from the catalogue at Baselworld 2014 — Robin Nooy at Monochrome (March 2016) frames the 116900 launch as a return after the line was "dropped from the collection." The 2-year hiatus from 2014 to the 116900's 2016 launch is the longest gap in the Air-King's continuous catalogue presence since the 1945 introduction.		The 2014 retirement is similarly consensus.

	A small handful of secondary outlets imply the 114200 ran "until 2016" — conflating discontinuation with line return. The primary editorial (Monochrome, ~~Goldammer~~, Robb Report) consistently gives 2014 as the production end and 2016 as the line return on a different reference. 2007–2014 is the active production span.

	The 114200 is recent enough that most surviving examples are documented through dealer-market sales rather than essay-grade major-house lots. The Christie's "Jewels and Watches Online: La Dolce Vita" sale 21040 lot 136 (a Domino's Pizza 114200, c.2013, case 96A51575, full set) is the documented major-house anchor. Phillips, Sotheby's, Bonhams, and Antiquorum carry no documented 114200 catalog essays in the auction record.
