Swiss Made Rolex Cellini Replica Watches For Sale
Dials are what make these chronographs stand out. Rolex Cellini Replica Watches chose a design with a lot of bright colors and lots of unusual details. The 703x's most distinctive feature is its hour markers. They are shaped like home plates on baseball fields. Collectors gave the watch the well-known name "Home Plate". The dial's main colour was grey with an outer black track that featured five-second numerals painted in bright orange.Rolex Cellini Replica Watches
The 45-minute and running seconds counters were both black. However, the bright orange triangle was placed in the 5-minute portion of the latter. The centre-seconds of the stopwatch is also brightly orange.
It was also available in a version with black dials, which are extremely rare. I would estimate that there is less than a dozen of these, and it's a common belief that the black dials are service replacements.

The grey areas on the dials of Home Plates are often "spotted" and I would expect Rolex Cellini Replica Watches to provide the black dials to the service centers in the same manner as they did for the blue snowflake dials on Submariner watches when the black dials rotted. Only a few of these dials have been purchased by original owners who are adamant they were originally ordered in this configuration. Maybe authorised dealers would offer the black to their preferred clients. They are the Holy Grail of Rolex Cellini Replica Watches collectors.
Home Plate has been called by other names over the years.Rolex Air King Replica
It is only fitting that another name for 703X watches, the Porsche Chrono, was given to them. The wrist-mounted clock was a perfect solution for car racing. The name was given to the 7032 watch in an advert for the Japanese market. It featured a Porsche 911. The link is tenuous but it stuck.
Home Plates are delivered in a box that's orange and two-piece. An orange cylindrical two-piece card outer box contained an inner brightly colored display box. This was unlike anything seen before or since. The Rolex boxes at the time encouraged the owners to reuse the boxes as a container for peanuts, paperclips, cigarettes or ashtrays. Collectors have called the box "Peanut Box". It is highly prized and commands a few hundred pounds at auction sites.
