Let me narrow this down to what makes it extremely rare and actually something for the museum:
- ref 5500 (Air King case) - not so rare
- ref 5500 with the Explorer dial (but still the 34mm case) - rare and collectible
- ref 5500, Explorer dial and caliber 1530 (Super Precision) - very rare and not something seen every day
- ref 5500, Explorer dial, caliber 1530 and underlined "Super Precision" text - extremely rare
- re 5500, Explorer dial, caliber 1530, underlined text and then add double T<25 - I must admit, I have during my years never seen one before (I have read about it but I thought it was an urban myth that one actually exists

Thank you for breaking it down...
Very thorough observation and it is truly a rare variant of the 5500, I’ve seen less than a handful of it but most of them are in the auction. Sam
Thank you J!
To me explorer is a very cool watch. And perhaps it (1016) could be my only watch if I were only to choose one Sam
