1976 Rolex Cellini 4135 - 18K Yellow Gold Matte Blue Dial

Details

The Discreet Elegance Of The Cellini

The Rolex Cellini line represents the brand's dedication to pure dress watch elegance, a departure from its more widely known tool watches. The Reference 4135, crafted in 18K yellow gold, embodies this ethos with its refined proportions and classic design. It offers a sophisticated alternative for those who appreciate Rolex quality in a more understated, formal package. This particular example, with its matte blue dial, presents a subtle yet distinctive aesthetic that sets it apart.

A Striking Combination Of Blue And Gold

This 1976 Cellini stands out with its beautiful matte blue dial, a less common and highly appealing color choice that provides a quiet contrast to the warm 18K yellow gold case and integrated bezel. The pairing creates a compelling visual presence, balancing luxury with a touch of unique character. The inclusion of a Patek Philippe leather band with its original buckle further elevates this example, offering an unexpected but fitting complement to the Rolex's refined nature.

Well-Preserved With Honest Wear

This example is in good condition for its age. The 18K yellow gold case is good, showing wear consistent with a piece from 1976, and appears unpolished. The matte blue dial remains clean, free of any notable distractions. The crystal is also clean, providing a clear view of the dial. The watch is presented on a Patek Philippe leather band, complete with its original buckle.

The Art Of The Manual Wind

This Cellini is an ideal choice for someone seeking a dress watch that combines Rolex prestige with a touch of individuality. Its manual-wind movement offers a direct engagement with the watch, a classic feature appreciated by collectors. The 27x32mm case size sits elegantly on the wrist, making it a versatile option for both formal occasions and sophisticated daily wear.

What Our Clients Say About Us

I knew I was gonna like Danny, based on his name, but nothing could’ve prepared me for how great of an experience this was. He had the most beautiful 70s Seamaster Cosmic on his website and I was set to be married 2 days later - I arranged to buy it but before leaving we both realized it needed to be serviced. I panicked, because I was literally buying this for my wedding, and Danny being the legend he is, loaned me a nearly identical Seamaster to make sure I could get through the event Never have I had someone go so above and beyond for me, especially while purchasing one of the lesser priced items in their inventory. He serviced my watch and exchanged it with me after the wedding on a super fast turnaround timeline. I would sincerely recommend you visit this guy, you will not be disappointed Edit: adding a pic of the loaner (two tone) and the owner (crosshair)

Great service and shop. Danny and his team were incredibly accommodating, professional, and kind. Great selection of vintage watches. Their store is the hidden gem in the diamond district.

This was my first real luxury watch purchase, a Rolex 15200 Date 34mm, I own Tissots and a Laco, but those are entry level luxury watches. I found Danny’s Vintage Watches online, and had great feedback both on Google, Chrono24 and the Reddit watch community. So decided to give him a shot as buying online can be a crap shoot. Ordered Monday night, was at my doorstep Friday morning. Despite the watch being over 30 years old, serial number says it’s from 91, the watch looked new. Didn’t come with box or papers, and was shipped in a plastic sleeve wrapped in bubble wrap. Danny was always available to answer questions. I’ll be buying from Danny again for the next purchase…saw a couple of Speedmasters on his site I liked….
