What do you gents think of this Rolex from the Cellini Danaos line? I like the retro look and the fact it's on a band.

Beautiful. I like the white face best, but both are stunning retro designs. My grandfather's 1952 Rolex Oyster is one of my favorite watches. I had it restored for my Dad's b-day two years ago, but any classic Rolex gives me a warm fuzzy feeling!
Austin, are these the hand-wound Cellini? They look great, but if they are quartz, I would avoid them.
+1. The one on the right looks great. Would love to get one if it wasn't $10,000.
(I dont know the actual price, just pointing out the fact that Rolex's are damn expensive)

They run about $6500.

If your budget is $10,000, there are many Rolexes to be had for that price.
That is great. Nothing beats winding up a stopped manual wind

I also like that they don't have a date window. I find them annoying on a watch. It detracts from the watch face.
I prefer the one on the left. I love that dial. Let us know which you choose.
I prefer the one on the left. I'm usually a fan of Rolex's older sports models (GMT, Submariner and Explorer I& II), the Cellinis do have their charm.
Something is off, I don't know if its the pillow shaped case, or the numerals are too large on the face,it seems too busy?
Here's my thoughts on Rolexs...when you have one a legit one...everyone thinks it's a fake. Now I don't wear watches for other peoples opinions...but it does happen.
Really? I have never had this problem. People may ask, but once you tell them it is real, that is that.
I think they look 
You might want to search the sale boards for the Glycine Eugène Meylan. Nice watch at a budget friendly price

I've had a Rolex for 15+ years and not a single person has every said "Is that a Rolex? lol (I have a stainless Oyster Date with Oyster bracelet)
BTW, for $6,500 I think there are better watches. Those are just my two cents... neither of them "grabbed me."
I like the one on the right - and I own a Rolex Oyster Perpetual Day Date. My only complaint is that my wife's cheap watch tells better time. I lose one minute a month. I brought it in a number of times but they said that's the way wind up watches work!

My 10 year old and 15 year old Rolex keep very accurate time.
