Rolex Oyster Perpetual Air-King 5500 'Tiffany co-signed' - 1979
Very special Rolex Air-King 5500 up for grabs.
Why so special? It's dial is co-signed by Tiffany & Co, that's why! The Air King is absolutely one of the best value Rolex's on the market, and probably one of the best vintage buys out there. This particular example may be priced higher than other examples, and seemingly not quite such good value, compared with any other Rolex's with a Tiffany co-signed dial it's a veritable bargain.
Featuring a 34mm case and oyster bracelet, date and gorgeous applied markers it makes for a versatile, elegant and very special piece.
Dial is in very good condition with all tritium plots in place, which have aged to a lovely pumpkin colour. Plexi glass shows some scratching, though could be polished out if desired.
Case hows signs of use and polishing as to be expected of a 40 year old watch, but overall very good. Numbers clearly visible between the lugs. A watch like this I'd rather see in this condition as there's less chance it's been tampered with by an unscrupulous vendor.
Bracelet is a 78350 with 11 links, and 557B endlinks. Will fit a 7.7in wrist.
Watch only.
