Rolex designed the Cellini to be the preeminent symbol of elegance and performance. A premier dress watch, this Cellini has a timeless 18K white gold case, royal blue dial with gilt printing, and high-grade handwound caliber 1600 movement.
It is an uncommon reference that, while not a large watch, is pleasingly larger than the vast majority of the similar Cellini watches made in the era and has a 33mm diameter. While we have owned many dozens of Cellini's from the era, this is the first 3602 we have ever owned.
It has 100% Rolex parts and has just finished a true expertly done restoration. It presents in gorgeous condition - a 9.7 out of 10. Our photos couldn't begin to do it justice!
Its case presents as mint. Its original dial has been meticulously restored - the printing could pass as Rolex factory done to the naked eye. A Master Watchmaker has just overhauled the movement, which is near pristine. It continues to run true, keeping extremely accurate time on par with a new Cellini in our testing position.
For the finishing touch we have equipped it with a brand new leather strap and Rolex style aftermarket buckle making it ready for immediate enjoyment.
Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. warranty on the movement and its function, a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate.
A more than half-century old Cellini that presents like new!
