Rolex Cellini

Nuestros amigos de Danafi han tenido la gentileza de enviarnos estas imágenes de un precioso reloj Rolex modelo Celline completamente restaurado en sus talleres de Barcelona. La intervención realizada es importante. Tal y como se puede observar, la esfera ha sido totalmente restaurada como era de origen. La caja de oro ha sido finamente retocada para ocultar golpes y magulladuras... Agujas nuevas originales Rolex sustituyen las antiguas agujas oxidadas por el paso del tiempo y, finalmente, han realizado un repaso y afinado la maquinaria.








Toda una delicia para los amantes de la alta relojería y, sobre todo, para su propietario que ha vuelto a recuperar este magnífico reloj Rolex Cellini en baja forma. Gracias a esta intervención listo para volver a dar su inigualable latido.

A very nice Omega watch dial. We think that the dial is special because the two tone provides a vintage style with the arabic numbers in gold ink. The brand Omega is painted in black ink providing sufficient contrast with the background. It is a perfect combination between the vintage know how and the function.
We hope you enjoy with the images.
