The dial is the star of the show with several very special attributes. The lightly patinated champagne dial has unusual coffin-form hour markers with the lume underneath! The dial is signed SWISS only and has a very rare so-called double dash. In the lower half of the dial is the text “Superlativer Chronometer Amtlich Geprüft”. The German text is very rare and unusual to see and, of course, we love it. We would expect that this watch was targeted for the German speaking audience , so we think that this watch was born with a German day disc that has been replaced at service ..Could it get any cooler? Yep! The watch is fitted with a rare and beautiful yellow gold Big Logo Swiss-made bracelet, stamped ‘3 59’ that will fit a wrist size up to 18.5cm.

During the 1970s onward, Qaboos bin Said al Said became renowned for commissioning specially ordered watches featuring the royal Khanjar crest, either printed on the dial or engraved on the case back. These watches were typically presented to senior military officials, diplomats, trusted advisers, and members of the Sultan’s inner circle, making them objects of both extraordinary rarity and important historical significance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"2002\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"2597\"\u003eMany of these bespoke commissions were supplied through Asprey of New Bond Street, London, the Sultan’s preferred jeweller during the period.
