So, I have no rights to this picture, found it on line in a for sale site. I became engrossed in the emblem on the dial. I have seen the (in)famous dominos Pizza logo, but this is... just cool!

I believe, it is Arabic writing(?). My apologies if I am wrong but can one of our Arabic reading TRFers translate the words? I just really like the design of the emblem, I wonder what it's all about?

I've seen that here before, but can't remember the specific details.

swils8610 · 25 September 2015, 05:05 AM

I have also seen it but can't remember what it's the symbol for. Someone here will know.

Isn't that the kuwait airforce rolex?

1210tech · 25 September 2015, 05:08 AM

Its a UAE Forces issue I think, military or police

Symbol looks slightly different (colours on the inside emblem)

ronricks · 25 September 2015, 05:09 AM

UAE armed forces logo. Have seen it on a few Oysterquartz's that were up for auction.

Danny83 · 25 September 2015, 05:10 AM

Iraq or Uae dial says armed force police

TheVTCGuy · 25 September 2015, 05:14 AM

Iraq... Wow....

$2,300(ish) from Hong Kong, no band. PM me if you would like the link (not sure of TRF rules on posting it).

cop414 · 25 September 2015, 06:01 AM

PM sent Paul.

ronburgundy · 25 September 2015, 06:20 AM

I've seen this dial before and dials like this for UAE, Oman, and Saudi Arabia.

brettpaul · 25 September 2015, 06:24 AM

Old Iraqi flag design - will trust the views on the Arabic as I don't read or write (or speak) it. Lots of those floating around the region...nice all the same.

The writing is not clear if you can zoom it I could tell you the word

SemperFi · 25 September 2015, 10:23 AM

I guess if I was a member of that particular service, otherwise...no.
