Rolex with Arab logo

Hello All,

I have a question that might be asked before, but I can’t seem to find the answers on the forum or google. If you know this please kindly share with me.
Thank you in advance.

Why does Rolex have multiple dials that have different Arab logo on it? What is the history or reason behind it? Also there are some Arabic fonts on the dial numbers and day date’s days. What’s the connection between Rolex and Arabic?

It has little to do with sheiks and a lot do do with government agencies, particularly the military branches, that give government employees or military officers Rolex watches embossed with their respective logos as a reward for service. Pre-owned DateJusts with logos are for sale all over the place in Saudi Arabia. And many are unworn and in pristine condition.
