I absolutely adore the Cellini dual time, and if I needed to wear a nice watch every day, that would be it. Great choice, enjoy!

It looks so fantastic on you! Huge congrats!!

I measure it at 12mm so not skinny by any means. I know that many think that is too thick for a dress watch. My wife thinks really thin watches look "dainty" and that is the last look I am going for :)

That is a pen Briboxer included branded with his "Boxer Time." He also included a Boxer Time polishing cloth which I thought was nice

That’s actually thinner than my Tudor north flag (which is deceptively thick) so I know I could handle it. I’m curious about the moon phase, though I’d guess it clocks in at about the same 12mm.

Thanks! And enjoy that beautiful watch!

Well, I think that Cellini is a gorgeous dress watch. At one point, I was considering one myself. That looks great on your wrist. Extremely tidy way they have of doing a dual-timer. Congratulations! That is a true heirloom piece IMO.
Cheers,
Carl

Fantastic watch, its not as popular here as many members (myself included) like to use a dress watch from another brand as an excuse to diversify and spend our Rolex money on the professional series. Its a great watch. Congrats!
