Rolex Cellini "Egyptian"

The Rolex Cellini collection takes its name from the famed Italian goldsmith and sculptor, Benvenuto Cellini. The name was chosen for Rolex’s collection of refined and often gem-set dress watches as a means to celebrate the elegant lines and impeccable craftsmanship of the artist’s works.

This very rare design featuring a solid 18 k gold case decorated with pyramid designs to the top and bottom of lead to it gaining the nickname the Egyptian. Its the sort of design that may have been inspired by the Gerald Genta designed watches of the era. It is Gerald Genta that is credited with the design of the king Midas

This particular watch is fitted to a brown leather strap and has a case size of 24 mm x 35 mm and so is suitable for either ladies or gents

The manual winding cal 1601 allows a very slim case perfect for an elegant dress watch
