Description: Rolex Air-King Ref. 5500! This is a great vintage 1970's Rolex Air-King ref. 5500 on the 7835 Oyster bracelet with original matching punched papers! The papers are filled out with a sale date, however I can't decipher the year. The watch is in a 34 mm stainless steel case and will fit 19 mm straps. The case, crystal, and bracelet show scratches. The bracelet shows minor stretch from wear, and the crown is well-defined on the clasp. The "S R2" date code on the clasp indicates it's newer than the watch (1993 production) and was a service replacement.Serial number 3354XXX, dates to 1973. Model and serial numbers are readable between the lugs, however the corrosion on the serial number side makes it difficult to read.The watch features the 26 jewel cal. 1520 automatic movement. All functions work properly, however we do not know the service history on this watch and do not guarantee the time keeping. Currently the watch is running a little fast, showing around +22 seconds/day on our timing machine. Servicing/regulating this vintage watch after purchase is recommended.We did NOT get the original box. What you see is what you get. PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU ARE AVAILABLE FOR DELIVERY. We only sell guaranteed 100% authentic high end Swiss watches and accessories. No warranty implied or otherwise is provided on watches and watch accessories sold on eBay.
