Very nice indeed. It's getting very hard to find a full set OQ with correct box and books, and in such great shape these days.

Congratulation. It seems to be mint. I was looking for
long time before I found the watch that was in good condition.
These are rather rare nowadays.

New to the Quartz Rolex. Have two day-dates but would like to try an Oysterquartz. Being a beginner in the Rolex world, I was wondering if the Quartz Rolex is looked down or thought to be inferior because of the quartz movement?

It's only looked down on by the uneducated. The 5035 movement is a hybrid quartz/mechanical movement that was five years in the making. It's a superb watch with a case design firmly rooted in Rolex history.

It should not be looked down on. Probably one of the most accurate quartz movements ever made.
