It looks to me that the dial was remade in a military style. It has luminous numerals and Cathedral hands together with 24hour military time numerals. Which is highly legible and has a functional design. And has Rolex on it.
In those times (WW1) I guess the purpose would be to have a ‘tool watch’, at least a watch on the wrist, not style.
Your thoughts?
Best regards

It wouldnt have been done by Rolex, it would have been an independent watch maker for their client.
