Specialist note
The present watch, distinguished by its very good overall condition, is believed to be from a small series of 200 openface dress watches, ref. 600/1, and 150 wristwatches, ref. 2481, made as of 1953 to special order in commemoration of King Saud bin Abdulaziz Al Saud who became King the same year.
