Introduction
Within horology and the art of collecting, there lie some specific details that collectors covet and cherish due to their rarity, backstory, and prestige amongst other collectors. One of those details is the famed co-signed dial, with the ‘Arab dial’ standing as one of the most sought-after. Never offered for retail like other co-signed dials, ‘Arab dial’ timepieces bear the insignia, family crest, or royal coat of arms of various Gulf state royals who make special orders for these watches from the brands so that they can gift the watches to other heads of state, diplomats, or celebrate milestones. With so few of these watches in circulation and many of them linked to prominent events and figures from history, these watches are prized by watch collectors looking for a timepiece that is off the beaten track and unique. Featured here, we have a Jaeger LeCoultre that has been co-signed with the House of Saud (Saudi Arabian royal family) coat of arms at 12 o’clock. With its stunning diamond-set bezel, intricately constructed gold bracelet, and bright blue dial, this is a stunning watch that is only made even more spectacular by its rare dial and mysterious heritage as a gift to someone from a member of the Saudi Arabian royal family.
