A Rolex Cellini, reference 3804, in 18-carat yellow gold with a gold dial and the hand-wound calibre 1601, on a black leather strap, offered as a watch only.
The Piece
Rolex was founded in London in 1905 and moved to Geneva in 1919, and the Cellini, named for the Florentine goldsmith, has long been its line of slim dress watches in precious metal.
Reference 3804 is a round dress watch in 18-carat yellow gold, with a gold dial and a hand-wound calibre 1601. The crown is plain and the black leather strap closes with a gold-plated pin buckle.
The case is 31 mm (1.22 in) across, and the strap fits a wrist of about 19 cm (7.5 in). The serial begins 428. The crystal is clear, the case shows light scratches, and the dial has slight marks and a gentle ageing. It is offered as a watch only.
