Slip a piece of vintage horological history onto your wrist with this Rolex Explorer, Reference 5500. Created as a quintessential utility watch, the Rolex Explorer line built its reputation on rugged dependability and understated charm. This example features a classic 34mm stainless steel case and matching bracelet, paired with a black dial for timeless appeal.
Powered by an automatic Caliber 1570 movement, this men's watch has a 19mm lug width. The bracelet fits a wrist size of approximately 15cm, and two extra links (about 2.0cm) are included so you can extend the fit if needed. Note that the dial is a refinished redial rather than an original.
This pre-owned watch shows genuine character from past use. The glass, bracelet, and buckle carry light scratches throughout, while the case and bezel show several thin scratches and small dents. The hands have heavy damage and staining, and the dial shows slight damage. As a used piece, its accuracy runs at roughly minus eight seconds per day, a reference figure rather than a guaranteed rate.
