PERPETUAL CALENDAR
REF 5320G
THIS 40MM PERPETUAL CALENDAR automatically indicates months with 28, 30, and
31 days and every four years also recognizes the 29th of February as a leap day.
Additionally, the cream-colored dial now has a small day/night aperture between 7
and 8 o’clock and an aperture for the leap year cycle between 4 and 5 o’clock.
Applied gold Arabic numerals and sharp-tipped newly designed hands purposely
recall the Ref. 1463 chronograph from the 1950s. The moon phases are displayed
with such precision that a correction by one day is required only every 122 years. A
very contemporary vintage-style white gold case with three-tier lugs is inspired by
the Ref. 2405, also from the 1950s. Price: $82,784.

CELLINI
MOONPHASE
THE NEW 39mm Rolex Cellini Moonphase in 18-karat Everose gold is celestial on the
wrist with its large blue enamel disk and genuine meteorite moon showing the full
moon and the new moon. You can read the moon phase by using the indicator at 12
o’clock on the subdial. The full moon and new moon rotate through the lunar cycle.
This is Rolex’s first new moonphase watch since the 1950s. Price: $26,750.
