Logo is different than any other I've seen. typically there is an inscription beneath.

Does Ben still post on the forum? He knows all about these Arabic dials.

its very attractive!

i have never seen a 1600 caseback. usually its 1601 or 1603.

i think those little lumi plots may hve been redone at some time.

Looks normal to me. Like my ex-Datejust I gave away

Mine had no eagle, but normal Rolex details.

Please don't buy it, the crest is fake. I am from UAE and this crest is supposed to be of our ministry of defense but the colors are not correct.

I hape I am not too late.

Watch itself seems legit! Dial: no opinion but based on the post of Rolex Abu Dhabi I'd pass.

More info on what?

I think the watch is a legit datejust which should have an around 3 mio serial. Regarding the dial read the comment of Rolex Abu Dhabi a couple of posts above.
