Rolex "One of a Kind"




Anybody ever see a Ladies Cellini like this? Has papers that look legit and was purchased in 1984 at Mayor's. Strange for sure. All the Rolex watches I have witnessed and never had one like this?

What is that pink bezel material? Some sort of precious stone?

Coral is basically Calcium Carbonate, which is white. However it might be rather processed to get the pink color and appropriate shine.

Pink/Salmon Coral jewelry has been around for hundreds of years. The majority you see today is dyed or manmade, but the real deal was very sought after in Victorian jewelry.
