Notes

Rolex created the ?Cellini? line to pay homage to Benvenuto Cellini, the celebrated Renaissance period artist, who was well known as the goldsmith to kings and the Popes of the period. This reference was produced from 1969 through 1978. This watch is illustrated in ?Rolex, Collecting Wristwatches?, by Osvaldo Patrizzi, 2001 Edition, p. 85.
