Rolex Cellini Date

About this reference

The Rolex Cellini Date reference 50519 in 18k white gold was introduced in 2014 as part of a redesigned dress watch collection and remained in production until its discontinuation in 2022. Collectors value this reference for its departure from the traditional Oyster case, featuring a 39mm polished case with a double bezel that is fluted and domed. It utilizes the COSC-certified caliber 3165, a self-winding movement with a 48-hour power reserve that displays the date via a pointer hand on a sub-dial at 3 o’clock rather than a standard window. The dial is characterized by a "Rayon flammé de la gloire" guilloché pattern. On the secondary market, the 50519 typically trades between $14,000 and $19,000 depending on condition and the presence of original documentation. A notable variant includes the blue dial version, which often commands a premium over the standard black or silver configurations.
