What I'm asked about the Rolex Air-King 5500
What strap size does the Rolex Air-King 5500 take?
The Rolex Air-King 5500 needs 19 mm between the lugs, usually 16 mm at the buckle. It's the size I've been fitting on it for years.
Can the strap on the Rolex Air-King 5500 be changed?
Yes, and easily: the lugs are drilled, so the spring bar is pushed out from the outside with a thin pin, without opening anything. If you prefer, I do it in the workshop.
Can I put a leather strap on the Rolex Air-King 5500?
Yes, in 19 mm leather. On a 34 mm case a calf strap works every day; if you want something more, alligator.
Which strap do you recommend for the Rolex Air-King 5500?
A 19 mm calf strap, for every day. You'll find it ready in the 19 mm collection. If you'd rather have something built on your wrist, the Casati atelier.
