Rolex has discontinued producing its Milgauss anti-magnetic chronographs and Cellini formal watches. However, Rolex introduced most of its modern Cellini line of classic watches in 2014, more in the formal wear category than the professional sports models that dominate the brand’s men’s market today.
It was designed to meet the requirements of nuclear scientists, being able to withstand magnetic fields of up to 1,000 gausses. This ability is no longer a practical necessity but more a piece of horological history appreciated by collectors. 
It had long been expected that Rolex would abandon both collections so that it could focus more of its production on the most sought-after watches with long waiting lists. Watches suspected to be on the chopping block tend to rise in value on the secondary market.
There is no doubt that the fake Rolex Cellini is made using the same quality standards that apply to any Rolex watch. Also, the presence of precious stones and the use of gold ensure that the watch retains its value and even appreciates it. Why does this particular collection not necessarily achieve the popularity enjoyed by other Rolex collections?
Some would say that it is the nature of this collection that makes it unattractive to many buyers. Most of Rolex’s collections are purpose-driven. That is, they are made for a specific purpose in a particular type of customer. When the collection is mentioned, people associate it with a specific attribute, such as a double date, a high level of water resistance, or even some type of beveled face. With those other collections, you know that certain features will always be included.
Cellini is more like a wild card in a family known for offering specific collections of watches that appeal to those who want something special. With replica Rolex Cellini, the only way to find what you want, if possible, is to go through multiple designs and see how well they match. That’s more work than going straight to something like a Rolex Mariner, where you know what to expect.
Even so, looking into the idea of owning a Rolex Cellini or two is worth the time and effort. From something you can wear for at least part of the day to something that is only worn on certain types of occasions, you may find one that has a look you want.
