Very nice indeed. Thanks for sharing. Does the second sweep like a wrist watch?

OYSTERMANN · 14 June 2008, 08:12 AM

How do you, or did you, manage to get one of those?

David its a dealer display quartz clock. No sweep.

Still a very nice piece as most were given away after new display items arrived.

Thanks Wolfgang, it's a lovely piece. I can but dream....

stevemulholland3 · 14 June 2008, 08:17 AM

do you want to give it to a good home of a collector who will cherish it until the end of time?

fastorange · 16 June 2008, 05:32 AM

Thanks Wolfgang, that info was greatly received, any idea of dates and how many were manufactured.
Thanks,
fastorange.

colemanitis · 16 June 2008, 05:34 AM

Whoa! That clock is awesome! I've never seen one of those before!

Harry_III_UK · 16 June 2008, 05:39 AM

Interesting - does the clock actually have a Rolex Quartz movement inside?

Also - who makes the Airport clocks?

Are they made by Rolex or just branded as Rolex?

Hi oystermann,
it was a wedding present from a family member.

fastorange · 16 June 2008, 05:44 AM

yes the battery compartment is stamped with gold coloured lettering

stevemulholland3 · 16 June 2008, 06:26 AM

I dont believe that the movements are rolex.most likely they are movements from another swiss co. like movado.

shoppy · 16 June 2008, 07:11 AM

Beautiful photo and watch.

RW16610 · 16 June 2008, 07:30 AM

Oh I have always loved the dealer display clocks from Rolex! The one I want is the GMT or Submariner, but have not seen any on ebay in ages.

ROLEX MAN · 16 June 2008, 12:04 PM

wow it's lovely!

Lol-x · 16 June 2008, 12:20 PM

My understanding is that the airport clocks are manufactured on behalf of Rolex by a third party.
