Coming back to the name of the model ‘Cellini', the Rolex has decided to name its luxurious collection after the popular Italian goldsmith and sculptor, Benvenuto Cellini as it is the ideal timepiece for those who have a true appreciation of true artistry.

The Rolex Cellini collection was the handiwork of Rene-Paul Jeanneret, who is the man who had helped steer Rolex towards making watches for professionals in the 1950s. The Cellini was introduced in the 1960s and they were modeled in a very stylish, yet timeless Art Deco look. The extravagant design of the watch is particularly enchanting, while its excellent precision stays true to the well-established Rolex standard. In an attempt to provide a classic alternative to the sporty Oyster collection, Rolex launched a number of Cellini models throughout the course of its corporate history. The Rolex Cellini Danaos, the Rolex Cellini Cestello, and the Rolex Cellini Quartz are no longer manufactured. They offer deep insight into the history of the legendary Rolex brand
