The 1807 reference produced from 1959 to 1977 exhibits ‘bark finished’ decorations both to its bezel and President bracelet. The present timepiece dates back to the early Seventies and has been made upon special order for the Sultanate of Oman.The dial reveals the unmistakable national Omani emblem representing the Khanjar dagger inside its sheath placed upon two crossed swords, which in this case is unusually printed in black. Externally, the case back, still bears the green Rolex sticker showing the 1807 reference, as proof that this important wristwatch arrived to our present days superbly preserved.
Rolex
Swiss | 1905Founded in 1905 England by Hans Wilsdorf and Alfred Davis as Wilsdorf & Davis, it soon became known as the Rolex Watch Company in 1915, moving its headquarters to Geneva in 1919. Like no other company, the success of the wristwatch can be attributed to many of Rolex's innovations that made them one of the most respected and well-known of all luxury brands. These innovations include their famous "Oyster" case — the world's first water resistant and dustproof watch case, invented in 1926 — and their "Perpetual" — the first reliable self-winding movement for wristwatches launched in 1933. They would form the foundation for Rolex's Datejust and Day-Date, respectively introduced in 1945 and 1956, but also importantly for their sports watches, such as the Explorer, Submariner and GMT-Master launched in the mid-1950s.One of its most famous models is the Cosmograph Daytona. Launched in 1963, these chronographs are without any doubt amongst the most iconic and coveted of all collectible wristwatches. Other key collectible models include their most complicated vintage watches, including references 8171 and 6062 with triple calendar and moon phase, "Jean Claude Killy" triple date chronograph models and the Submariner, including early "big-crown" models and military-issued variants.
