This vintage Rolex Air-King 5500 Oyster Perpetual Precision stainless steel wristwatch is in like new condition and keeping excellent time.
As you can see from the photos, the case, bezel and bracelet are in such excellent condition most likely only ever polished once or maybe twice at most. Very sharp chamfered edges throughout the case and lugs with a smooth bezel in very sharp condition. The bracelet is in excellent condition with the correct 7835 bracelet and 357 end links. The origianl dial is quite a rare textured dial almost like a linen dial, with the original hands in superb condition.
The acrylic crystal in very good clean condition with some minor marks on it, not very visible with the naked eye.
Please bare in mind that there will be some very minor wear marks on the case, bezel, clasp and bracelet due to its age, but still very clean and an honest example, one of the best we have ever seen.

Featuring a 34mm case housing the silver dial with silver batons, this 5500 model is a classically stylish timeless timepiece. The automatic movement has been thoroughly checked by our watchmaker and is in full working order.
Without any additional features such as a rotating bezel, chronograph registers, or even date complication, the Air-King ref. 5500 boasts one of the cleanest and most understated Rolex designs of all time.

As a testament to its rock-solid reliability and timeless good looks, the reference 5500 Air-King remained in production for 37 years, and stayed largely unchanged the entire time. While the Air-King has always been considered one of Rolex’s entry-level collections of watches, its classic design and top-notch build quality have made it a popular choice for celebrities and politicians alike.
