Lot 163 The following seven lots, 163 - 169, represent the widest selection of modern Rolex watches made for the Sultanate of Oman ever offered at auction - a unique opportunity 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 an exceedingly rare commodity kept in very high regard by collectors worldwide. The few examples appearing in public are in general gifts made by the Sultan and have as such often been used and present signs of wear. The timepieces offered here for sale, however, are absolutely pristine, untouched and still retaining the factory stickers. The majority is offered with the original certificates, confirming that they were indeed retailed by Khimji Ramdas, traders located in Muscat, Oman, since 1870, today Rolex's official retailer in Oman.
