Had to show some love for my battery ticking little friend from my collection. It's just been such a pleasure having this watch thus far since it's so unlike all other Rolexes in my herd. The sturdiness of the bracelet combined with the white gold bezel and the cool "squareish" case is just genius.
Some pics:

I wish this case was offered still but with automatic movement

I am with you...The ticking is a bit annoying from time to time, I must tell you. The case, bezel, bevels and bracelet is just so well designed together that it makes up for the ticking IMO...

I love my ticker!!!

Floorguy · 23 May 2015, 06:37 AM

love that watch. Looks like the ap royal oak, to me. Forgive me, but which was made first?

up2nogood · 23 May 2015, 02:22 PM

I'm still trying to find a gold one that isn't too rough. I do like 'em.

Mr. Vegas · 23 May 2015, 03:18 PM

Very nice pics. I hope to own one someday!

Exactly how I felt when I decided to pull the trigger!! Since they don't make them anymore I am pretty sure prices will increase over time.
Both mine 6 months ago for 2530 Usd with full set. Last weekend one was sold at auction here for 4340 usd incl. Commission...

AP was first...some say that Rolex was "inspired" by the Royal oak model when they did this one...

The 19018:s are so cool. Really nice bracelet as well. I am also considering one in the future!

There's plenty of vintage Rolex DNA in the Oysterquartz case, especially from models like the Imperial and Viceroy

cop414 · 23 May 2015, 08:54 PM

Great pics guys, I would love to see Rolex bring the OQ back.

Furbo · 23 May 2015, 09:08 PM

I really like shape of oysterquatrz case, hope to own one someday.

Bugger. Been off the hunt for a while. Had to happen, damn that Murphy.

Beauties, guys. One of the few I never get tired of...

tommy91 · 23 May 2015, 11:22 PM

I passed on one of these in two tone, really good condition for 1900 euros a few months ago :( I wish I went for it

Brikev · 23 May 2015, 11:35 PM

I wore that model every day for 25 years (except when it needed the battery changed). it's built like a tank-indestructable- but it does tick loud- really loud. Wish I still had it, though.
