Notes: ROLEX, CELLINI, REF. 3808 WITH MATCHING BRACELET, WHITE GOLD A fine, extremely rare and heavy, manual wind 18k white gold wristwatch with its matching 18k white gold bracelet (signed CB Carl Bucherer).

Many of the more intricate bracelets and Cellini creations were manufactured and signed by Carl Bucherer (CB) as their workshops were used to working with jewellery pieces. Never seen at auction before, this extremely rare set made in full white gold was more than likely used as a show/display piece as the case number is absent but rather replaced by internal stock numbers (407.07.667) that are stamped on both pieces. While exact production numbers are not known, it is more than likely than no more than a few pieces were made, at most.

Mechanism: The 1600 is a very traditional manual wind movement reserved exclusively for Cellini models.

Family Notes: Rolex still makes manual-wind watches. Cellini is a line of manual-wind dress watches from Rolex.

The Cellini collection is a contemporary celebration of classicism and the eternal elegance of traditional timepieces, combining the best of Rolex know-how and its high standards of perfection with an approach that heightens watchmaking heritage in its most timeless form.
