Description
Our opinion: The explorer ref 5500 is an airking with a very rare matt explorer dial in new condition! different versions were produced, matt, lacquered… A real collector's reference. This one is from 1973 and is one of the first with a matte dial, well patinated explorer numbers 3_6_9. The watch has its vintage folded strap which is very long and in good condition. And the case is very little polished! A truly exceptional watch.
