Case , dial and movement signed , case back further engraved KR for Khimji Ramdas
Accessories With Rolex original fitted presentation box and accompanying letter from the Sultante of Oman .
This DateJust is particularly rare for a number of reasons . Firstly , the watch is fitted with a bark finished bezel and centre links , which is correct for this reference .
The dial is signed with the ‘ Qaboos ’ signature , meaning the watch was a special commission from His Majesty the Sultan of Oman . Even rarer is the caseback , bearing two letters , KR . These initials represent Khimji Ramdas , the prestigious Omani retailer , confirming the location of origin for this special time piece .
The presence of KR is testament to the watch ’ s original condition - the engraving would have easily disappeared with light polishing . The serial number is furthermore repeated on the case back , confirming the watch was a special order for Rolex .
This DateJust is accompanied with its original Khanjar fitted presentation box , and a letter from the Royal Band of the Sultanate of Oman with the stamp of the Rubat Palace , confirming the watch was a gift to a special performer from the Royal Band . Overall , the watch has been preserved in very original and crisp condition . The bracelet links and bezel are tarnished from age , confirming the watch has not been used for a very long time .
