Rolex Air-King — gold-capped 40-micron yellow gold over steel, sunburst champagne dial with applied gilt dart markers, Cal 1530 Super Precision. Image source: Bonhams auction 29125 lot 51 (May 2023, c.1960 example, hammer USD 2,550). Used here as representative gold-capped Cal 1530 Air-King example — the 5502 and 5506 sister references share identical architecture (40-micron gold-capped Oyster, Cal 1530 Super Precision, alpha hands, Kessi Frères case construction) and differ only by reference number and distribution channel; visual representation applies equally to either reference per the documented parallel-production convention.
