Rolex is especially known for making special dial watches
for this region. The manufacture applies an additional
stamp to the dial which depicts National Coats of Arms,
the names of politicians and rulers. Luxury goods,
specifically watches have been used by many States in
the Middle East to present a watch to a well deserving
subject as a thank you for a job well done.
These watches are usually well regarded by those whom
are lucky enough to receive and were handed down to
future generations. Due to the nature of the gift they are
treasured by those whom receive them and they are kept
in extremely well preserved condition.
津樂道。
