Rolex Datejust 36 UAE ARMED FORCES YELLOW GOLD DATEJUST
From the 1960s, Rolex became the preferred choice of sheiks and emirs, but also a symbol of prestige for political and military leaders in the Middle East. In this context, Rolex will begin the production of special orders for this market, and the multitude of configurations and dials resulting from this collaboration will make these watches a holy grail for collectors.
The reference you see is one of them: It is an extremely rare and well preserved reference 16018, supplied to the United Arab Emirates Armed Forces. The champagne dial features their emblem, composed of a golden falcon, the flag of the United Arab Emirates, and seven stars representing the federation of the seven emirates.
It is estimated that there are at least three different known logos. This one, with golden stars, was intended for the armed forces.
This example is in perfect condition, and probably the most beautiful on the market with a thick and biting case, a flawless dial and a sublime 18-carat gold president bracelet in the same way as the case and indexes.
An extremely rare opportunity to obtain a watch with great historical value which has always fascinated collectors.
