Rare Bird ... But Desireable???
I have a shot at a pretty rare Rolex. A 5501 Air King, 9 million serial (mid 80's for the noobs). All original, and yes, SS/18K including the original bracelet. I haven't seen the watch yet, as it is a little drive for me and I'm just not certain I am interested. I have the appraisal from a very reputable jeweler I am familiar with (good to authenticate the watch - poor for actual value other than for insurance purposes), and I am not worried at all about the seller or my own abilities to recognize something that's "off". What do you guys think. I'm not going to reveal what I may be able to get it for.
What are your thoughts, my WIS, Rolex fanatic friends???
