The Cellini line was Rolex's dress-watch family — all gold, all leather straps, all elegance — and since Rolex retired the name in 2023 in favor of the Perpetual 1908 collection, Cellinis have settled into a connoisseur market that most buyers do not follow. LBC Pawn Cash 4 Gold 3% Loans* buys Cellini watches in Boston — and the 1908 models that replaced them — priced on reference, gold content and condition.
Sell for cash, or borrow on it at 3% per month*. Text photos to 857-867-6468.
The Cellini watches we buy
- Cellini Moonphase 50535 — Everose gold, meteorite moon disc
- Cellini Time 50505 / 50509
- Cellini Date 50515 / 50519
- Cellini Dual Time 50525 / 50529

- Perpetual 1908 — 52506 / 52508 / 52509 (the successor line)
The Moonphase is the flagship: the only modern Rolex with a moonphase, with an applied meteorite moon — it leads the Cellini market by a wide margin. The Prince, with its exhibition back, is the collectors' second favorite.
Pricing a dress Rolex in a sports-watch town
Cellini value starts with full precious-metal content — every modern Cellini is solid 18k gold — and adds the reference premium: Moonphase first, Prince second, then Date and Dual Time complications over the Time-only cars. Strap and buckle originality matter (a correct Rolex strap and gold deployant add real money), and complete sets are scarcer here than on sports models, so they pay accordingly.
The 1908 collection carries the same DNA with an exhibition caseback and the calibre 7140 — if yours is a 1908 rather than a Cellini, it is bought on the same page's logic, at current-collection money.
Box & papers — they pay more, but they are not required
A full set — inner and outer box, warranty card, booklets, hang tags and links — adds real money to a Cellini offer, because the next buyer pays for completeness. No box, no papers? We buy it anyway. Our staff authenticate and inspect the watch in-house: the movement, the reference and serial engravings, the dial, hands and bracelet are all checked at the counter, and we price what is in front of us.
Bringing more than the watch? The more you bring in, the more you get — a second watch, the gold chain you never wear, the coins in the drawer. Bundles are priced piece by piece in front of you, and the total is almost always stronger than selling each item separately somewhere else.
Bring a valid photo ID. Sellers and borrowers are 18+ with ID; serial numbers are checked and every transaction is recorded and reported exactly as Massachusetts law requires.
How it works
1. Text photos first. Photos of your Cellini — dial, case back, clasp, plus the box and papers if you have them — to 857-867-6468. Get a realistic range before you travel.
2. Bring it in. 1107 Commonwealth Ave, Boston — Mon–Fri 11–6:30, Sat 11–4:30. Bring a valid photo ID (18+). Rolex deals are handled in our private VIP room, and we inspect and price the watch at the counter, in front of you.
3. Get paid the same visit. Cash on the spot if you sell — or a pawn loan at 3% per month* if you would rather borrow against it and keep it yours.
Why sell your Cellini here?
Sports-model tunnel vision means most counters quote a Cellini as a gold watch with a leather strap. The Moonphase and Prince premiums are real — we pay them.
Online marketplaces mean weeks of messages, shipping a five-figure watch to a stranger, and real fraud risk on the payment.
At LBC Pawn the watch is inspected at the counter in front of you, the offer is the offer, and you leave with cash the same visit — or with a loan ticket and the watch still yours.
Skip the drive-first guesswork. Text photos of the watch — dial, case back, and the box and papers if you have them — to 857-867-6468 and get a ballpark before you come. Prefer to talk? Call the same number during shop hours.

More Rolex models we buy
Questions we hear
- Is the Cellini discontinued?
- Yes — Rolex retired the Cellini name in 2023 and replaced the line with the Perpetual 1908 collection. We buy both, priced in their respective markets.
- Which Cellini is worth the most?
- The Moonphase 50535 leads by a wide margin, followed by the Prince. All modern Cellinis carry full 18k gold value as a floor beneath the watch premium.
- My Cellini is on a worn or replacement strap. Does it matter?
- Some — an original Rolex strap and gold buckle or deployant add value, but the watch head carries most of it. Bring whatever straps and parts you have.
- Can I pawn a Cellini or 1908?
- Yes — solid-gold watches are strong collateral: 3% per month plus the one-time 8% first-month charge, up to 4 months, renewable.
