This Rolex Oyster Perpetual, reference 5500, is a 34mm case in Steel and Yellow Gold used condition, featuring a White Sticks and Roman dial, a Fluted YG bezel, a Oyster Old Style bracelet, dated circa 1958. Priced dealer-direct and shipped fully insured.
Caliber 3230 powers the current 2020-present refresh, the 124300 and 134300 with their bold dials, while earlier OPs ran the 3130 family. That difference matters when you're paying pre-owned money, so confirm it alongside the serial year. From the 1926 foundational work to the ref 6050 classics and the 116000 workhorse era, this line stays steel and stays liquid. I deal these every day — let's get you a fair price.

Demand has outrun supply on these for years, and that's the whole story for a buyer. Wilsdorf founded Rolex in 1905, and the Geneva house earned its standing on waterproofing, automatics, and date displays. Precision and durability made the name; the market made it an asset class. Steel sports references sell over retail every day, so dealer-direct pricing and a wire payment keep your fair trade-level number where it belongs. Browse all Rolex ›
