Rolex Baselworld 2015 : the new Cellini Time
The essence of time. The Cellini Time captures the present as if nothing else were important; nothing but the magic of the moment. It is a witness to life’s most precious occasions. The Cellini Time is offered this year in four new versions with a touch of eternity – their bezels resplendent with diamonds, like some of the dials. Reinterpreting with elegant modernity the timeless codes of classic watchmaking, the applique hour markers are divided by a minute track that has been moved towards the centre of the dial, closer to the tips of the hands. Faceted and shaped like two-edged swords, the hands count off each second, each minute and each hour with the full precision of the self-winding chronometer movement at the heart of these prestigious timepieces.
The new gem-set Cellini Time models are offered in 18 ct white or Everose gold with a 39 mm case and a single or double bezel set with diamonds. The double bezel combines a row of 96 diamonds with the fluting emblematic of Rolex watches. Its black lacquer dial is accentuated by 11 diamonds at the tip of the hour markers. The versions with a single bezel set with 62 diamonds feature new pink or rhodium dials with a sunray finish and elongated applique hour markers. The new gem-set Cellini Time is fitted on a remborded and stitched alligator leather strap in semi-matt black with an 18 ct gold buckle matching the gold of the case.
