David was anointed as king over Judah in 1077 BCE, when he was 30 years old. Ishbosheth(Saul's son) ruled over the other tribes for about two years, but was assassinated(2Samuel 2:1-4, 8-10; 4:5-12) and his tribes then joined Judah, and made David king over all Israel.(2Samuel 5:1-3; 1Chronicles 11:1-3; 12:23-40). Between Hebron and Jerusalem, David ruled for over 40 years.

(2Samuel 5:4-10; 1Chronicles 11:4-9; 2Cronicles 6:6)

David was chosen by Samuel to be king, God told the prophet Samuel to go to the village of Jesse , and to choose one of his sons as the next king to king Saul. But God had other ideas and chose Jesse youngest son David, who was a young boy of about 17 years years of age as the next king.

He doesn't. Though, on occasion, he is depicted as wearing the magical ring of King Solomon. Additional Comment: No ring but he was given the 'Throne' of Earth to rule from.

Did Saul look forward to the day when David would take over his reign as king of the Israelites?

The evolution of Saul's attitude toward David ... as so clearly interpreted in the book on the subject by Rabbi Dr. David Novak ... is the gripping picture of the descent of a tormented soul into his own internal paranoid hell. At one point Saul was simply wary of David, because he imagined that David would try to take the throne away from his son, Jonathan. And then, seemingly the next day, Saul was ready to kill his son, because of Jonathan's friendship with David. No, the thought of David taking over the reign as king of Israel drove Saul to insanity.
