Designed in the early seventies, this
Rolex Cellini represents the new era
of creativity with watches for women
becoming true pieces of jewelery.
Unseen on the market until today
and bought new by the consignorâ??s
mother, it is made of wonderful gold
hoops all linked together that give
this piece a lovely feel and flow. Fully
signed Rolex up to the clasp and
weighing in at an impressive 102
gramms, it is surely one of the most
unusual and decorative piece of the
Cellini line to appear at auction.
