1973 Rolex Cellini Vintage Mens Midsize Handwound TV Watch, Ref. 3805 - 18K Gold

Rolex

Item No. 6908

Today's offering showcases this gorgeous ref. 3880 "TV shaped" Rolex from the Cellini Collection.

Rolex designed the Cellini to be the pre-eminent symbol of elegance and performance. A premier dress watch, this Cellini has an 18K gold case indexed bark finish textured bezel, strong black dial with 18K gold coronet, and high-grade handwound caliber 1600 movement.

It is 100% Rolex down to the original hands, winding crown and buckle and presents in perfect condition - a 9.8 or 9.9 out of 10. It has just finished a true expertly done restoration.

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 keep very accurate time.

For the finishing touch we have equipped it with a brand new leather strap and the watch's original Rolex 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.

An over four decade old Cellini that presents like new!
