Like many Rolex models, the Air-King was designed with a particular type of wearer in mind—in this case, pilots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"127\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"551\"\u003eHere we have an early 1980s version, reference 5500, housed in a classic and sturdy 34 mm steel case.

This particular example was commissioned by the Libyan company Arab Drilling \u0026amp; Workover Company (ADWOC). We believe the watch was gifted to an employee to mark years of service or another significant milestone in their career. The ADWOC logo is beautifully printed in red, with a drilling tower behind the lettering, set against a silver soleil-finished backdrop with crisp black printed text and the classic Air-King font.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"769\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1320\"\u003eThe watch is paired with an Oyster-style bracelet, ref. 78350, with end links marked 557 and a clasp stamped H.Further more the watch is accompanied with its original hang-tag bearing the serial of the watch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1320\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1530\"\u003eThe watch and its automatic movement have been fully serviced by our watchmaker and are ready for many more years of use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1530\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1653\"\u003ePlease get in touch to arrange a viewing or call and explore this rare and historic logo -Air-King in person!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1653\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1764\"\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1781\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-indent-level=\"1\" class=\"ak-ul\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1785\"\u003eRolex Air-King Reference 5500\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1818\"\u003e34mm steel case with smooth bezel\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1855\"\u003eSerial 7105xxx, dating to 1982\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1889\"\u003eSilver colour soleil finish dial with rare ADWOC logo\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1946\"\u003eRolex Oyster bracelet ref 78350 with end links 557\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"2000\"\u003eRolex Hangtag with serial of watch\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"2038\"\u003eFully serviced by our watchmaker\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"2074\"\u003eFree worldwide FedEx Priority shipping\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Rolex","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":61124510220618,"sku":"W-3616","price":6900.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0025\/2329\/9889\/files\/W-3616RolexAir-KingsilverADWOC-Dialref5500_418_1x1_1646f40e-ab62-4005-87c9-b10f6581ed75.jpg?v=1771356010","url":"https:\/\/bulangandsons.org\/products\/rolex-air-king-silver-adwoc-logo-dial-ref-5500-w3616","provider":"bulangandsons-backend","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
