1995 Rolex Cellini 5112 - 18k Yellow Gold White Roman Anniversary Dial

Trade In
Details
A Different Side Of The Crown
The Cellini line has always been Rolex’s platform for pure dress watch design, a departure from the rugged utility of the Oyster case. Named for the Florentine goldsmith Benvenuto Cellini, these watches were built to showcase precious metals, slim profiles, and refined aesthetics. This reference 5112 is a perfect expression of that mission, pairing a solid gold case with a clean, classic dial. It represents the side of Rolex dedicated to quiet elegance over overt capability.
Roman Numerals On Solid Gold, Hand Wound
The Anniversary Roman dial is the version of the 5112 worth chasing. Applied Roman numerals on a plain field, no date window, no seconds subdial, nothing competing for attention, which is a discipline Rolex almost never allows itself elsewhere in the catalog. Behind it sits a hand-wound movement rather than the automatic rotor that defines the rest of the brand, so the case can stay thin enough to slip under a shirt cuff without catching. Solid 18k yellow gold throughout, on a leather strap, at a size built for exactly one job.
Perfect Dial, Unpolished Gold Case
Good condition, and correct where it counts. The 18k yellow gold case is unpolished, which matters more on soft precious metal than it does on steel, since gold cannot be refinished many times before the case starts losing its edges. The Anniversary Roman dial is perfect, with no spotting, no lifting, and no restoration. It is fitted on leather. As with every watch we offer, this piece has been verified as mechanically sound and is ready to wear.
The Second Rolex, Not The First
Nobody buys a Cellini as their introduction to the brand. This is the watch that turns up once the Submariner and the Datejust are already handled and the gap left is something quiet in solid gold. It solves the black tie problem, the boardroom problem, and the problem of wearing a Rolex without announcing it, all at a fraction of what an equivalent dress watch from a name with less history would cost. Hand wound, gold, and completely uninterested in being noticed.

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….
