Alex's Comments: It's rare to find excellent, honest, original 5500 Explorers on the market nowadays, with so many examples having badly refinished or imitation dials. This is perhaps the best example I've come across, with a perfect Tritium matte dial, with very attractive luminous, and a strong, clean case and bracelet. It even comes with its original Rolex guarantee, original purchase receipt, and some Rolex service paperwork which details the "Explorer dial". Overall, an excellent example of an increasingly rare vintage Rolex.
