1987 Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date UAE Armed Forces Ref. 15008 (with RSC)

The Seven Stars of the Emirates

The UAE in its rich history has, in the past, commissioned a good number of custom order dials for watches that had been purchased with the purpose of being gifted to Army Officials, Delegates, and guests of state. There are Air Force Dials, MOD Dials, and among many others there is the UAE Armed Forces dial which in our opinion is one of the most beautiful logo dials issued for the UAE.

Here's a 1987 Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date in 35mm that is crafted in 18K gold. The  Silver dial has beautiful and rare facetted hour indexes and bears the UAE Armed Forces Logo that is positioned between the center post and the 6 o'clock marker.

Retained in beautiful condition the watch bears a fat and healthy case featuring the very desirable smooth bezel. The lugs are well defined and bear clear case numbers inbetween. The watch comes on a Rolex Lizard strap and gold plated Rolex pin buckle. The watch has been serviced at Rolex and comes with a Rolex Service Card issued in 2022.

These UAE Armed Forces logo watches have become very desirable and value for money for gold examples is very attractive compared to stainless steel watches.
