Has there ever been one? You have the sub for divers. Day Date for politicians, milgauss for scientists/engineers. GMT, Air King, and sky dweller for pilots. Explorer for.....explorers. Yacht Master for sailing/boating. Daytona for car racing. I can't think of a model specifically associated with police yet it seems like there's a significant amount of law enforcement who are customers.

There have been Rolex references that have been engraved by Rolex for law enforcement agencies, units, and military units. These watches are engraved by Rolex, not a jeweler, and a lot of coordination goes into the negotiationl with Rolex to approve the project.

Special Rolexs that I'm familiar with are the British SAS Explorer, a Submariner made for 50th anniversary of the Sommozzatori of Italy's Polizia di Stato, and 10 Submariners / 5 GMT's done for the US Secret Service.

Jlc diver is navy seals. Close as I can get.

ugazag · 27 February 2017, 12:42 AM

Sinn makes a watch for the GSG-9, and they also have one for firefighters. Sinn makes some really tough and nice looking watches.

mdx77 · 27 February 2017, 02:01 AM

Doesn't Luminox make special watches for SWAT and Navy Seals?

DramaTurtle · 27 February 2017, 02:02 AM

JLC, Sinn, Blancpain, G-Shock. Not Rolex.

seand442 · 27 February 2017, 02:56 AM

Maybe Rolex could come up with a retirement countdown model to show how long until you could pop smoke? 20, 25 year countdown model.

Kenda wears a Sub Date... that should be good enough..

This Sinn was being worn by a Frankfurt Germany SWAT officer I was working with last week. He was telling me that their office is close to SINN, and that 55 watches were made for his team.

Research the Sinn EZM1 if you want to know where it all started.

There is no serial number, that is the timer scale for the oven.

Formulansx · 27 February 2017, 06:57 PM

Well it's official. I want a donut at work tomorrow in the morning. Thanks guys!

Muzz · 27 February 2017, 07:34 PM

Always thought a GMT preceramic was a fitting timepiece. Modern I would be leaning towards the Explorer II for it's night lime legibility.

I am a retired LEO with 30 years on the job and I wore some version of either a Rolex Submariner or Deep Sea for over 20 of those years. I know numerious LEO's who own Rolex and a vast majority prefer the Black Submariner. As we all know a very robust watch.
