Hi I've been left a Rolex Oysterquartz 17013. Unforunatly the movement is heavy damaged and totally useless. I'm been trying to find a Oysterquartz 5035 movement but with no joy!! Does anyone know if it is possible to use any other Swiss Quartz movement. Any help will do
These watches are increasing in value , due to their rarity which was mainly down to the fact that they were not that popular originally i'm afraid , so not as many were sold as their mechanical siblings , and now some of them no longer work the ones that do are fetching good money , and are collectable due to their scarcity .
With that in mind I personally would recommend sending it back to Rolex , where it will come back like new , guaranteed and be good for many more years and increase in value further.
I would definitely not be putting in a non genuine Rolex quartz movement it personally.
Yes I am guessing they are many, it is just about physical size. I doubt very much you are going to get model numbers and help in how to it on a watch forum. It was a big mistake selling the damaged movement.
