New Aquisition.....

This is a pretty cool item IMO, an all original and like new Oysterquartz #17013 with white Roman dial and everything that came with the watch as new including the gold Quartz plastic tag! It's also a late 90s model which seem harder to find than the more commonly seen early to mid 80s models. Apparently this watch sat at the AD for awhile as the warranty paper shows a purchase date in Dec. of 2001
