Air King 5500 may be ? My first Rolex, bought in 1975 (yes, I know, it's a lot of time ago). Always cherished, never used after the last service made by Rolex and full set. Enjoy Nicolas.

The fundamentals by Rolex, with elegance. Thin 36 mm case, superb dial. Not the reference you see every day. Julie, my business partner, has great taste in watches. One of her favorite Rolex ( she owns three ). Best, Nicolas ...

Yes, but with a" linen " dial. [nt]

OK, I know this sort of dial for a Datejust but I don't remember it on a AK. [nt]
