Made in steel and 18k yellow gold and distinguished by its uncommon square/rectangular case, it belongs to a small subset of “Square 222” watches, with only a few hundred examples believed to have been produced, and only about a dozen known publicly featuring national emblems. Certain examples, including the present watch, feature a dial bearing the official coat of arms of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, composed of the palm tree and crossed swords, together with an inscription associated with King Fahd bin Abdulaziz, further elevating the significance. Fresh to the market directly from the family of the original owner, this example is accompanied by its remarkable presentation box, decorated on the top with the Saudi coat of arms and featuring the palm motif inside, together with printed attribution from Haji Abdullah Alireza & Co. Ltd, underscoring its distinguished provenance.
