Rolex OQ 17014

[Mr. K]

I am offering up for sale my beloved 17014 OQ. Reason being that I recently bought 2 new DJs and 2 jet skiis.

The History: (Although if you are looking at this watch, I assume you already know a bit about the history.) Estimated 25,000 were produced over 25 years. Those 25,000 produced included all the models sold making this a fairly rare watch. They stopped making the OQ in 2001.

The movement is an 11 jewel thermo-compensated, Rolex in-house, “Quartz chronometer” certified movement. Some say one of the best quartz movements every produced by any maker.

The Watch:
**17014, P serial number. I have asked on forums and know the last SS OQ was produced with the K SN, but have not found anyone with a K SN 17014, which I hope make this the last SN for this particular model.
**Condition is excellent, will let the pictures speak for themselves. No stretch in the band, but do not think this style of band was prone to stretch.
**Includes all the goodies shown;
- Original papers, chronometer certification, shown sold date of 1-17-02
- Boxes inner and outer
- OQ manual
- “The care of your Rolex” booklet
- “Your Rolex oyster” booklet
- a card from Rolex entitling you to one free battery change, open info on the back, a great collectible item with this OQ package
- The hologram removed and stuck to the box (the 17014 is faded, but I know it is from this watch because I removed it myself.)
- Receipt from Ben Bridge showing battery changed and pressure tested on 11-4-05

The Price: $2500

If interested please e-mail me at jmkawa@gmail.com as I will posting this on many forums, and in an effort to be fair. I will give priority to the first e-mails received at my gmail address. I am in Seattle in anyone local wants to take a look at it.

Thank you everyone for looking. I am hoping I can find a good home for this watch.
