The Rolex Cellini collection holds a unique and understated place in the brand’s history. Unlike Rolex’s iconic tool watches like the Submariner or Daytona, the Cellini line is dedicated to refined, elegant dress pieces. Introduced in the 1960s and named after the Renaissance goldsmith Benvenuto Cellini, the collection emphasizes traditional craftsmanship over rugged functionality. Early models lacked Oyster cases, featured slim profiles, and were crafted in precious metals like gold or platinum. They often came with leather straps, minimalistic dials, and manual-winding movements. This particular model, reference 4113, is crafted in 18K white gold with a rounded rectangular case measuring 26 x 34 mm. The dial is a beautiful blue sunburst ("soleil") finish, with simple stick markers and non-luminous hands, complemented by a clean, silver-printed font. This fine dress watch comes on the pictured leather strap, fitted with its original Rolex 18K white gold pin buckle. Included in the sale are the original Rolex boxes (seldom-seen versions with Benvenuto Cellini’s face printed on the lid), the punched papers showing a sale in Monaco in 2004, a translation booklet, and the “Cellini” booklet. This elegant Cellini has been fully serviced by our watchmaker. This Cellini is low-key charm with old-school flair. If you like your Rolex with a side of elegance (and a dash of Monaco history), get in touch—we’d love to chat about this one.
