Rolex Cellini Blue Dial ref. 3805 White Gold

This watch is in excellent condition for its age, with light scratches on the white gold case. There is also minor tarnishing on the 2 o'clock marker.

The "Cellini" name encompasses a wide variety of Rolex references across over five decades. Initially conceived as a pure dress watch, it featured design cues typical of the era such as exotic dials and irregularly shaped cases. Over the years, the collection evolved as tastes developed. The Cellini line was arguably the most dynamic of Rolex's families, and today exists as precious metal watches with a simple yet elegant round case.

ROLEX

Known by many simply as "the Crown", Rolex has certainly done much to deserve its reputation. From its founding just over a century ago by a German immigrant in the UK, Rolex has grown to become an international behemoth, recognisable (and indeed visible) across the globe.

Compared to other modern watchmakers, Rolex is in the near-unique position where its vintage watches have developed an almost entirely distinct collector base. It's no surprise, however, given the diversity and iconic status of so many Rolex models. The vintage Rolex community has arguably brought vintage watch collecting into the mainstream by shedding light on the beauty of old, worn watches which had so long been ignored by most.
