Hello!

Kaneko from Commit Ginza will introduce some recommended watches!
Today we have a rare Boys Explorer.

Rolex Boys Explorer Mirror Dial
Ref.5500 Serial.12 (manufactured around 1965)
Cal.1530 FF57/7205 Clasp code 64.4 Back cover 65.2
Accessories: Main unit only
SOLD OUT!!

This time we will introduce a product that was sold to the UK for a certain period of time.
We have another rare Explorer/Ref.5500 in stock, so let us introduce it to you right away!

This is a popular vintage model that is sold every time it arrives, so
If you're looking for it, be sure to check it out!

This model is an Air King/Ref. 5500 with an Explorer dial, so it has a small size of 34mm.

This photo compares it with Ref. 1016/mirror dial (right).
It's hard to tell from the photo, but the 5500 has a 2mm smaller case size.

Recommended for those who feel that 1016 is a little too big!

The dial is a mirror dial. The gold lettering is very cool.

The evaluation of mirror dials varies greatly depending on their condition,
This particular watch has a shiny mirror dial with a strong sheen.

The dial has some small scratches,
More than that, the condition of the mirror is too good,
I don't think it will be of any particular concern.

Check out this beautiful mirror dial!!
It's beautiful.

The jet black and shiny mirror dial of this watch is outstanding!!
This is a condition that is rarely seen.

While many of them have lost their luminescence,
The index luminous material is also in very good condition!

The needle luminous function was corrected in later years,
The atmosphere is not spoiled at all!

The condition is good, with some scratches appropriate for its age, but no major scratches and it is in fair condition for a vintage model.

The middle case is also sturdy and not overly finished!

The bracelet is a rivet bracelet stamped with the 4th period of 64.

A rivet bracelet is an essential feature for a mirror dial!

Bracelets that match the age will have natural wrinkles!

If you're looking for one, grab it now before supplies run out!!

Wrist shot!!
This top-class shiny jet black mirror is an irresistible gem!!

Boys Explorer "Ref.5500/65"
This is a highly recommended item with an attractive jet black mirror that maintains an outstanding glossy finish!!
If you are looking for a stylish mirror dial with just the right size, be sure to try it on!
The overhaul has also been completed at our affiliated workshop!
Customers looking for a vintage explorer,
Please consider this.
