Rolex 5500 1967

For your consideration and views a 1967 5500

5500 3.jpg

The Description
Rolex Gilt Explorer dial Precision with stainless steel Oyster bracelet.
This model combines the case and movement of an Air-King with the 3, 6 and 9 dial format of the Explorer. The model was originally made available exclusively to British military officers through the NAAF, before later becoming available for general sale.

This particular example is a 'Precision', dated from 1967, and features a glossy, gilt dial that is in very good overall condition. The dial exhibits signs of age, which is to be expected from a watch that has, in all likelihood, had an eventful and active life.

This watch comes with a black dial with white baton hour markers and Arabic numerals at 3, 6 and 9.
