Air King Full-Set
Sold
King of the Air!
Our reference 5500 on hand is an R-series, dates from 1988, comes as a full set and is probably the best Air-King in terms of condition that we have ever had the pleasure of offering.
The case shows no superficial signs of wear. The lugs are fat and the edges sharp. The case looks as if the watch has just come fresh from the factory.
The bracelet is in equally excellent condition with almost no stretch and all elements. The clasp also shows hardly any signs of wear.
The tritium dial is flawless. The hands were replaced with Luminova service hands during the Rolex CPO service.
In addition to its excellent condition, the watch comes with the original papers from Bucherer in Basel from 1988, the Rolex booklet and translation booklet, the original box as well as the Rolex CPO box, warranty (2023) and seal.
The condition and the set are simply fantastic!
