New addition to the family.... A CELLINI!!!
Hello everyone! I just wanted to post some very exciting news for me. For the last year and a half, I have been a faithful, one Rolex kind of guy. Although I have been looking for others, I just couldn't find a suitable compliment to my SS Sub Date....at a price that I wanted to pay. About 2 weeks ago I was browsing the "For Sale" section of TRF and there it was! A beautiful Rolex Cellini!!! I just knew I had to have it.
I reached out to individual looking to sell the piece and we spent some time talking about it. His name is Milos (sorry, I can't remember his screen name) and was very helpful and knew just about everything there was to know about the Rolex brand and this watch in particular. He gave me a terrific price and the transaction could not have gone smoother! I always get a little leary when buying a relatively big ticket item on line, but Milos was a man of his word and the watch was a beauty. Everything he said it would be. Now, I know that the Cellini line doesn't get much love here on this site. But as a compliment to my daily wear, I am very impressed with the craftsmanship that went into this watch. It is simple, understated and ellegant. And it is a perfect fit for those special nights out with my wife or anytime I just want a change from the sports models. Plus, the lack of popularity of this line means that it is somewhat unique in "the wild". Anyway, I am including a few pics of the watch for everyone to see. Thanks for letting me share! Brian |

Very classic look. If it's good enough for Phil Mickelson..
