WEARING THE WATCH
FOR THE FIRST TIME

Before being worn for the first time, or if it has
stopped, a Rolex watch must be wound manually
in order to function correctly and precisely.
Towind the watch manually, unscrew the winding
crown completely, then turn it several times
clockwise. (Turning in the other direction has
noeffect.) A minimum of 25turns is required for
adequate partial winding. The watch will then
bewound automatically as long as it is worn on
the wrist. Carefully screw the crown back down
against the case to ensure waterproofness.

The green seal accompanying your
Rolex watch is a symbol of its status
as a Superlative Chronometer. This
exclusive designation attests that it
has successfully undergone a series of
specific final controls by Rolex in its own
laboratories in addition to the official
COSC certification of its movement.
This unique testing of its chronometric
precision, waterproofness, self-winding
and reliability pushes back the
boundaries of performance and makes
Rolex a benchmark for excellence
in mechanical watches. For further

Rolex is introducing the Cellini collection,
a contemporary celebration of classicism
and the eternal elegance of traditional
timepieces. This collection of classically
inspired models combines the best of
Rolex know-how and its high standards
of perfection with an approach that
highlights watchmaking heritage in its
most timeless form.

Sober and refined lines, noble materials,
quality finishings: every detail respects
the codes of the art of watchmaking.
The round case is a traditional 39 mm
in diameter. The flared shape of the

screw-down crown highlights its refined
aesthetics. The dials, whose layouts are
determined by the watches’ different
functions, also bear witness to know-how
and tradition.

The Cellini models are equipped with
a self-winding mechanical movement,
certified as a chronometer and entirely
manufactured by Rolex.

In the purest traditional style, the Cellini
models are fitted with a leather strap.

COMPLETE SETTING OF THE WATCH
ISCARRIED OUT IN THREE STEPS IN THE
ORDER GIVEN

1. Setting the moonphase

– Use the moonphase correction tool.
– Press the moonphase correction pusher

as many times as necessary toalign
the full moon symbol as closely as
possible with themoonphase indicator.

– Unscrew the crown and then pull it out

to the second notch (position 3).

– Finely adjust the alignment of the

fullmoon symbol and the moonphase
indicator by turning the crown in
either direction (several turns may
berequired).

– Bring the minute hand to 12 o’clock

byturning the crown in either direction.

Unscrew and then pull out

After every use, carefully screw the crown
back down against the case to guarantee the
waterproofness. Return the crown to position1
and apply light pressure on it while screwing
it down clockwise against the case. The crown
should never be unscrewed underwater.

– Consult the current year’s lunar

calendar (available on rolex.com)
tofind the date of the last full moon.

– Count the number of days from the

date of the last full moon to the current
date (inclusive).

– Press the moonphase correction

pusher with the correction tool
asmany times as the number of days
calculated in the previous step. The
moonphase is now set.

Example

The current date is 28 March. The last
full moon was 12 March. 16 days have
passed since that full moon (28−12).
Thecorrection pusher must, therefore,
be pressed 16 times.

In the event that the corrector is pushed
an incorrect number of times, start
the setting procedure again from the
beginning of step 1.

2. Setting the date and the hour

– Pull the crown out to the first notch

(position 2).

– To set the date, turn the crown in

either direction until the current date
is displayed. The hour hand moves
inincrements of one hour and the date
changes every other time the hour
hand passes 12o’clock.

Example

Referring back to the example in
step 1, the date here is set to the 28th
of the month.

– Set the hour by turning the crown in

either direction. The hour hand moves
in increments of one hour. Note
thedifference between a.m. and p.m.
hours (the date changes as the hand
passes midnight).

Go to step 3

After every use, carefully screw the crown
back down against the case to guarantee the
waterproofness. Return the crown to position1
and apply light pressure on it while screwing
it down clockwise against the case. The crown
should never be unscrewed underwater.

3. Setting the minute

to the precise second.

– Set the minute by turning the crown

in either direction. The other functions
(hour, date and moonphase) are
synchronized accordingly.

– Push in and then screw down

thecrown.

If a previously correctly synchronized
watch has stopped for nomore than two
days, it is possible to adjust it simply
by pulling out the crown to the second
notch (position 3). First adjust the date,
then the hour and then the minute
by turning the crown clockwise. The
moonphase issynchronized accordingly.

Unscrew and then pull out

After every use, carefully screw the crown
back down against the case to guarantee the
waterproofness. Return the crown to position1
and apply light pressure on it while screwing
it down clockwise against the case. The crown
should never be unscrewed underwater.

– Set the local time by turning the crown

in either direction. The hour hand

– Push in and then screw down

Adjusting local time desynchronizes
themoonphase which is always indexed
to reference time.

After the wearer returns from a trip,
the contrary adjustment resynchronizes
themoonphase.

Thanks to Rolex expertise, your watch
will require very little day-to-day care.

You can help preserve its lustre by
cleaning it occasionally with a microfibre
cloth. You can also wash the case from
time to time using soapy water and a
soft brush. Before cleaning your watch,
always ensure that the crown is screwed
down properly against the case to
guarantee waterproofness.

To keep the leather strap in good
condition, it is recommended that you
protect it from water and humidity.

Rolex watch servicing ensures that
your timepiece will continue to
perform optimally and meet Rolex’s
stringent requirements in terms of
precision, reliability and waterproofness
throughout its life.

The timekeeping accuracy of your watch
is largely dependent on high-performance
lubricants specially developed by Rolex
to minimize friction and prevent wear
of components. To guarantee continued
accuracy and waterproofness, Rolex
recommends that you periodically return

your watch to an Official Rolex Retailer or
Service Centre for professional servicing.
When your watch is serviced by a Rolex
watchmaker, the watch is completely
dismantled and all of its components
are cleaned. Each individual component
is closely examined and those that
nolonger meet Rolex’s functional and
aesthetic specifications are replaced
with genuine Rolex parts.
The movement is carefully lubricated
then tested to guarantee its timing
accuracy; the case is meticulously
refinished to restore its lustre.

Your Rolex then undergoes a series of
rigorous technical tests and checks to
guarantee its waterproofness, power
reserve and precision.

After a complete Rolex service, your
watch is covered by a service guarantee.
