Rolex case problem
Hello everyone.
I have a question. I bought an old air king that has an unuseable case. The number on the case is 5502. I have (bought recently cheap) a rolex case with number 1501. Will this case fit the movement in my air king, or if not is there a way to find out what case(s) will, as there are cases for sale but I dont know which one can be used. I cant find an air king case in my price range. Thank you for reading this, OldKing. |

Try to find a case with Ref. 5500 as the measurements of 5500/5501/5502/5506 have been the same and the 5500 is the most common.
Also this would be a correct Air King reference, while the 1501 would be a Date... Bye Marko |

If you have the book "The Rolex Report" by John E. Brozek, you can look up the case styles.
