Pre-owned Rolex Air-King ref 5500 (1981) is a second-generation model produced from the 1950s to the 1980s. Many variations came to market then, including the massively popular all-steel ref. 5500 for sale here. This model is, arguably, the quintessential Air-King. It features an approachable 34mm waterproof Oyster case, a matching three-link Oyster bracelet, and a silver dial decorated with tasteful hour markers and Tritium. Watches with the distinction "Precision" on the dial typically use the caliber 1520. Furthermore, the dial has developed patina throughout, adding to the watch's vintage charm. This is the watch to buy if you're in the market for an entry-level vintage Rolex with immense character and history.
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....
