RolexCelliniModel No: 4233/9

Inspired by the Italian artist Benvenuto Cellini and his work, Rolex Cellini was introduced in the 1960s as a line of sophisticated dress watches. At the time, Cellini was the only style in Rolex’s repertoire that focused solely on aesthetics and luxury, being a time-only watch. Mostly rendered in 18k gold with pure lines and in a harmonious silhouette, Cellini was that elegant wristwatch that could be easily worn with dinner jackets, elegantly slipping under a shirt’s cuff. Of course, today’s Cellini is a lot more functional with its latest models equipped with a moonphase complication in addition to date.

Here we have the reference 6229/9 from Cellini’s Danaos series in precious 18k white gold. From every angle, the watch exudes perfection. It is finely finished with the case featuring smooth curves and a cushioned profile. The curvaceous lugs, paired with an 18k rose gold bezel, hug the wrist effortlessly. The neat white dial is signed with ‘Rolex’ and ‘Cellini’ in clear text and is furnished with a rose gold coronet logo, six o’clock marker, and a slender handset. Attention to detail can be observed throughout the case and the dial.

At Second Movement, the pre-owned division of Ethos Watches, we adhere to a rigorous verification process where expert watchmakers carefully inspect every watch to certify its authenticity, ensuring it is not counterfeit. We also go to the maximum extent possible to ensure that the timepiece is not a stolen property and that all duties are paid. However, in the absence of any central database, a 100% verification is unlikely for any pre-owned entity in India. Nevertheless, we can still provide a provenance guarantee for watches purchased from Ethos.
