1978 Rolex OysterQuartz 17000 MK1
The grand daddy of all OysterQuartz collectibility: reference 17000 with MK1 dial — simple, and clean: ‘ROLEX DATEJUST’ on the top half, and ‘OYSTERQUARTZ’ on the bottom half. If you’re looking to add the OysterQuartz to your collection, case and bracelet sharpness are a must. Being over 40 years old, it’s exceptionally difficult to find the MK1 OQ in this condition. Lume plots and hands have aged nicely, a nice contrast to the black dial. Open 6s and 9s on the date wheel. Super cool vintage vibes with this one, with sharpness that rivals your pal’s Royal Oak from the same era. It’s the OysterQuartz to collect.
