Oysterquartz 17000 (1994)
 

Hi, Gentleman’s, ))) A few months ago I bough a Rolex OYSTERQUARTZ 17000 (year 1994) perfect condition. It was immediately sent at Rolex FRANCE for a complete service and to have a minimum of documents.

Here are some photos))

The bracelet’s massif, perfectly well the wrist, broad towards the case and narrow towards the clasp, which allows a pleasant freedom of movement of the hand. And I like the design so much!

Surprisingly, the serial number of clasp H correspond to the year 1983 (can be left in stock afterward 11 years? …)

The glass had been changed, you can see the letter S (SERVICED) inside the laser graved crown

In conclusion I can say that the watch is extraordinary, by his comfort and originality of the design, with dimensions and the dial of the Eighties. Considering, that the bracelets are still available on order (250 euros average), a new one had been ordered at WEMPE Madeleine Paris.

If someone has some information about caliber 5035 it will be great to share it ))

Best regards

Looks Great .... :thumbsup:

Great photos. The watch looks like a nice find!

stunning example :cheers:

Very nice watch!!! Amazing pictures!:thumbsup:

wow very impressive!!! i really want to get the date-just for my dad

Nice!!!

Beautiful Oyster-Quartz, enjoy it :thumbsup: However your clasp is not original and is incorrect for a 17000 bracelet, yours came from a 78360 bracelet. :read:

love it! thanks for great pics

Nice Oysterquartz!
 

Does it's ticking keep you awake at night? It's so loud!

Excellent !! I love it. I also want a camera like yours. Please give details.

Great OQ and even better pictures :thumbsup::thumbsup:

Thanks very much for this important precision, Wolfgang :thumbsup:
I'll try to find more about this bracelet

Thanks, guys for yours congratulations :bye:
I use an old (3-4? years) Sony SyberShot 5.2 MB. With gasp to slip.
Mode auto everywhere, even the zoom. Only chose mode macro and switch off the flash. All the other modes are less detailed and it's difficult to find a correct focus.
I tried different kinds of cameras, but only this one is correct for price between 300 and 450 euros. My point of view, of course :bye:

AKIRA....you are hired as the official photographer...:thumbsup:

What a photographer you are.. Top notch.:thumbsup:

Wonderful watch. I never appreciated the OysterQuartz until I did some research and found out how unique it is.

that is a great looking watch. I'm a little confused.... was the watch left new at the dealer for all of these years? and are you the first owner, or is it pre-loved? could you please tell us what you paid for it?

Also, does the second hand sweep like automatic movements or does it tick-tick like most quartz watches?

Thanks!

Enjoy your beautiful watch and wear it with pride, remember you are worth it!!!

Stunning watch and pictures. Is the camera a Sony F707?

Fantastic photos.
What is the accuracy like on the quartz?

Great photos, would be very nice in the Rolex Reference Library for this particular model Rolex Quartz :agree: :thumbsup:

That's a very unique piece and as others have said, great photography.

OMG, I don't know if I'm more impressed by the watch :cheers: or your photography!:cheers:

Congrats Akira on your :thumbsup: taste AND your skills with a camera.:thumbsup:

I know it's a little rude to ask... but we're all friends here:cheers:... I'd also be curious to know price?

great pics. i wish rolex had quartz on every watch. i find studying in library all day is not enough to keep my gmt running all day...every day i worry if it has stopped!

X2!

The photos are excellent. Very nice detail.

+ 1.000.000. And thank you for the details and the photos. They are EXCELLENT :cheers:

THANX for sharing your watch and PICS with us that watch is really cool!!!

Superb photos!!!! Very NICE!!!

Awsome photos and a awsome watch. I love the Oyster Quartz.:cheers:

Great watch!! Hope you enjoy it very much.
I got a similar one, and may be it would be of your interest to read a post I sent some time ago:
http://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=63775

Ticking is surprisingly loud and characteritic, isn´t it?

I found the oysterquartz.net web page, a very comprehensive and interesting web site were to find info about this Rolex variant, including about its movement.

Thanks for sharing your new watch!!
Kind regards, Abel
