This captivating Rolex Datejust ref. 16030 is believed to have been a special order commissioned by the Sultan of Oman. Renowned for his passion for watch collecting, the Sultan was known for requesting bespoke Rolex pieces featuring Oman’s national emblem—the Khanjar dagger and crossed swords. These custom timepieces were often gifted to distinguished visitors and key individuals who served him.
This Datejust offers the best of both worlds for vintage enthusiasts, combining the convenience of a quick-set movement with the timeless appeal of a plexiglass crystal. The classic 36mm case remains in excellent condition, paired with a sleek engine-turned steel bezel. The silver soleil-finished dial is in fantastic shape, showcasing the bold red Khanjar at 6 o'clock, along with attractive vanilla -colored lume plots. The jubilee bracelet, reference 62150H, is in great condition, complete with end links marked 555 and a clasp stamped ‘D.’The watch has been fully checked and regulated by our watchmaker.
