Rolex Datejust Oysterquartz Owner Review : Impressive, gorgeous and precise

The OsterQuartz model 17014 is a treasure in several ways: 36mm. of white gold, the bezel shines brightly, fluted for connoisseurs, the 3 hands also in white gold, the small detail that changes everything to my taste, the rest, case, Jubilee bracelet and clasp are in steel, the shape of the avant-garde case, since already on the Rolex market in the 1930s, then 1940 under the names of Rolex Viceroy, then the Oyster Imperial, so the OysterQuartz with its 1977 design is a relatively young model in comparison. Imagine the Rolex philosophy is totally respected from 1977 to 2002 years of production, its design has not changed, only a few details have arrived, such as the engravings on the flange (the crown at noon, Rolex, Rolex, Rolex, Rolex going all the way around the flange then the serial number at 6 o'clock). The Luminova, replaced the tritium, and then that will be it. The OysterQuartz DateJuste is so incredible for me who swore only by mechanical movements with automatic winding or manual winding, and one day in an article I came across a model reference 17000 the simplest model, but by no means a low-end model, all Rolex are precious watches and all exceptional, then while searching, because it is not very easy to find this model, I came across a model that at first seemed dull to me, since the dial is black, but what class, on the wrist it is absolutely sublime, the settings are super simple. In short, the 5035 quartz movement is at the cutting edge of all points of view. Technologically, a 32KHz oscillator and a thermo-compensated quartz movement. For those who know the beast, it is the Holy Grail, for the others, explanation; This means that the watch is incredibly precise (crazy for 2024), because the quartz is kept at a constant temperature. In terms of finishing, you have to see it to believe it, but the Oysterquartz movement is finished like a mechanical movement, with Côte de Genève, perlage, and so on. It works with a battery that will be changed between 24 and 36 months, with the gaskets changed, for its water resistance, this little job is done at Rolex to be sure that the watch is and will remain 100% water resistant. If I had to convince some of the readers, I would simply say that it is a Rolex, brand connoisseurs will understand, the others too bad...!! But what an immeasurable pleasure to have the honor of owning such a model.
