A rare and stunning piece of Rolex design and manufacturing history, this Rolex Oysterquartz Datejust screams late 1970's early 1980's design with its flashy angular features and Royal Oak-esque integrated bracelet, powered by the incredibly precise and robust in-house Rolex 5035 movement this timepiece is built to represent the Quartz era centuries into the future.  This beautiful unpolished example is in excellent all original condition, freshly serviced and ready to wear with minimal bracelet stretch, light surface wear throughout and nice reflective champers along the case and bracelet.  The full length solid link bracelet and 36.5mm diameter case give this watch a strong visual and physical weight on the wrist with heavy solid 18k yellow gold center links and bezel.  A unique yet quintessential 1980's vintage Rolex of the highest quality in every regard.
