Pre-Owned Oysterquartz 17000

The Rolex Oyster Perpetual was born in 1926, as the world's first completely waterproof watch, closed like an oyster with the ability to keep water out of the case. It was not really until 1931 that the model became the Rolex Oyster Perpetual, when Rolex patented an automatic movement, ground breaking at the time, which allowed the watch to run "forever" with continuous use. The model is the basis for both the Rolex Explorer and the Datejust.

The Rolex Oyster Perpetual is usually referred to in watch contexts and among enthusiasts as a "one watch", i.e. a model that is suitable for the person who only owns one watch, which should work in all contexts. It has the elegance of a suit watch and the robustness of a sports watch. It elevates your combination of oxford shirt and Bermuda shorts, just as it adds a casual elegance to your flannel suit. The watch is the ultimate student gift or anniversary present.
