Thanks, PM sent!

I haven't yet, but I have pretty small wrists and I like the vintage look of the smaller size. I have seen plenty of photos on Instagram of the 5500 on the wrist and I'm convinced it's the one for...

Thank you mondie, that would be great. That's incredibly kind.

Amazing, thank you!

I was climbing round those parts in the summer!

So after staring longingly at what seems like hundreds of Rolex Air-King 5500s on Chrono24, I'm ready to buy and have found a couple of options.

Thanks Nick - despite being in London I haven't managed to locate any that I can go see! Lots in Germany and Italy on Chrono24 though.

Thanks Nige, it looks very nice, although I've got my heart set on the 5500 - I love the simplicity!
