My Rolex Oysterquartz 17000 & Bob's watches

[Draxler]

Hello to all Dear Rolex friends on this planet!
Today I recive package from Bob's watches and inside was my Rolex Oysterquartz from 1978, MK1.
First of all, I wolud like to say, that my experience with Bob's watches were great. I'm from Slovenia and I saw Rolex Oysterquartz MK1 in Mint condition on Bob's watch page couple weeks ago. Immediately I send them mail and later we have a few phone calls.
Lady, salesgirl Miss. Madison Bray was very, very friendly and kind. She answer to all my question and for me she really is a Rolex Pro. Thank you Miss. Madison Bray & Bob's watches, I will be back soon ;-)
And here we go with the photos:


















Greetings to all, from the only country in the world with word LOVE in it's name ;-),
SLOVENIA

I'm usually a mechanical watch kinda guy, but if you're gonna go quartz, Oysterquartz is the way to go. What a beautiful watch and movement. It looks great. Enjoy.

Gotta say that the Oyster Quartz is growing on me.

Congrats

Looks like 1 of the 1st Oyster Quartz. No chronometer wording on the dial. These watches use the Mark I 5035 movements. They were not submitted to the COSC for "official" testing. Nice find

Beauty!! Congrats.

[Draxler]

Black & White is very cool

Serial number is 5.4 million, which is pretty close to the 17000's introduction in 1977.

It's in awfully good shape for 35 years old

Congratulations on a beautiful Rolex

That is an awesome watch, been looking for one but the ones I've seen are either too beaten or too expensive.

Oysterquartz is truly a unique watch, and for a quartz, that's a very beautiful movement. The first time I've ever seen it!

[watch watcher]

Stunning. For lack of better words, it's a very masculine looking watch. I love the angularity of the case, the chunky (large) bracelet links and the austerity of the monochromatic look.

[SCsailor]

Stunning watch. I've bought two from Bob's and was completely satisfied each time.

[GTS Dean]

Very nice aquisition!
