There has been an increase in popularity for vintage Air-King watches. In fact, actor Ryan Gosling was recently spotted wearing one on his wrist at the 2017 Golden Globes. The reference 5500 is similar to the watch worn during the celebrity-filled affair and boasts a brushed stainless steel finish, a 34mm waterproof Oyster case, and a sophisticated dial topped with silver indices and central sweeping hands. This particular men's Rolex is worn on a five-piece link Jubilee bracelet and Fliplock clasp. Collectors of all budgets will appreciate the affordable price tag that accompanies this ref. 5500.

Watch arrived overnight and exactly as advertised. Makenzie was terrific and made the purchase seamless. Can't say enough about Bob's quality and customer service.
The watch was in exquisite condition, superior to what was shown in the photos. The person who assisted me with the process was patient and very helpful.
Accurate description of watch. Purchase was straight forward. Watch was delivered quickly. Would/will buy from Bob’s again.
I couldn't be happier with my purchase. While not the least expensive option, Bob's service has been great. And, having had the watch assessed by a certified Rolex dealer in NY, I was assured not only was it in extraordinarily good condition cosmetically, the work done on the internal mechanics was excellent. I would recommend Bob's highly.
very accurate description but I assumed it would be in a Rolex box. Excellent service
Affordable. Great credit terms. Awesome watch.
A outstanding piece. Under rated by there scale. If this watch would have came with the original box it could be sold for new old Stock
Bob’s Watches is truly an amazing company. This was my first Pre-Owned watch purchase and it was an amazing experience. I had a few questions and they were answered immediately and unlike many other online dealers they actually have the watches in inventory. Placed my order at 4pm and it was at my door at 10:30am the next morning on the other side of the country. The pricing and experience are truly exceptional!!
Appears unworn - essentially brand new, but it is 58 years old....
