Rolex Oysterquartz Datejust Ref. 17014 – Rare Buckley Dial
A watch that sits in a category all its own, the Rolex Oysterquartz Datejust Ref. 17014 is already a unique chapter in Rolex history — but this ultra-rare Buckley dial configuration elevates it to true collector status. Produced in 1982, this reference blends cutting-edge quartz innovation with timeless Datejust design and an exceptionally desirable dial variant.
The standout feature is the original white Buckley dial, featuring painted Roman numerals and a bold black handset — a layout seen on only a tiny fraction of Oysterquartz models. With Tritium lume plots, a sapphire crystal, and the elegance of a white gold fluted bezel, it’s an extraordinary fusion of sport, elegance, and rarity.
The 36mm stainless steel case carries the unmistakable angular silhouette of the Oysterquartz line, sitting sharp and assertive on the wrist. Inside, the Rolex Calibre 5035 Quartz movement offers legendary precision and reliability, paired with a quickset date function for everyday practicality.
Finished with the correct Rolex Jubilee-style bracelet (Ref. 17010), this watch presents as one of the finest and most desirable examples of the entire Oysterquartz range.
