Specialist note

With Rolex Garantie Internationale, stamped by Khimji Ramdas LLC, the official Rolex retailer in the Sultanate of Oman, and dated 1 June 2010. Furthermore delivered with sales tag, box and outer packaging.

The present watch is one of the rare opportunities for the Rolex collector to become the owner of an absolutely mint Khanjar Rolex.
Watches blessed with the Omani crest or the signature of His Majesty Sultan Qaboos are a very rare commodity kept in very high regard by collectors worldwide. The few pieces that are found on the market normally are gifts by the Sultan, and as such they have usually been used and present some wear.

This timepiece, however, is absolutely pristine: it is untouched, still with its plastic bezel protection, and retains all of the factory stickers, including those on the band and even those on the bracelet. Of course it comes with its full sale kit, in equally untouched condition, confirming it was retailed by Khimji Ramdas, the official Rolex retailer of the Sultanate of Oman. A true gem for the savvy Rolex collector.
