Specialist note

With Rolex fitted presentation box.

This watch is a luxurious example of an Omani timepiece. The red Khanjar - the Omani emblem - is the undisputed protagonist of the dial, its vibrant red hue stark against the sunburst champagne dial. The presence of the refined Jubilee bracelet and the condition of the piece are two welcome additions to this attractive and rare wristwatch.
