The Rolex Air-King 5500 is the longest-running reference of the Air-King line, the stripped-down, no-date descendant of Rolex's Air-Tiger, Air-Lion, and Air-Giant tribute watches to Royal Air Force pilots of the Battle of Britain. Produced from 1957 until the late 1980s, the 34 mm steel reference paired a plain three-hand dial with a self-winding movement and Oyster case, changing only incrementally, in caliber and dial typography, across its three-decade run.

Masao Kusakari wears the reference as widowed pianist Fuyuki Kanda in A Man and His Cat, per costume-loan supplier Jackroad's records. (Jackroad)
