Hindi dial

Where can I purchase a Hindi or Eastern Arabic face or dial for my Sub?

I know it sounds like a stupid question but from the United States, they are not as easily attainable as one might think.

Place a WTB ad in Al Gisera or contact an AD to order it?

Try contacting Cooke & Kelvey in Calcutta. They have been selling Rolex in India for many, many years, and will know if such a thing exists, or ever existed.

I actually didn't realize there was such a thing as a Hindi dial. Is that for the Indian market? I thought all of the dials were just in English no matter the destination country. I'm sorry I can't offer any help, but it's an interesting topic in any case.

I don't know for which market they are intended but they are very difficult to get your hands on. I can BUY a new Rolex with a Hindi dial but to just find somewhere or someone to order JUST the hindi dial from is damn near impossible. I know they exist. I've seen them in person.

Interesting, I see what you mean now after googling it. I thought maybe it was the name Rolex and the model etc in Hindi, but I see it's just the markers. It appears to be Arabic rather than Indian as I had questioned that it might be. Well, I learned a new bit of knowledge about Rolex today, so thank you for that! Good luck in your search.
