Nice! Love these. What's the number on the caseback? #84 appeared earlier in the thread. I still have no idea what WJ means

so my middle eastern friend interpreted these dial the best he can, if you had clearer pics he could be more definitive

grey dial airking translation "armed military area" maybe missing a word as he cant read it all
gold dial airking translation " police Al Jahraa Kuwait " Jahraa is the region or area of Kuwait

Excellent post!!! I absolutely loved seeing all the different logo dials. I always wondered what logos were out there. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for the post, I was not aware of so many logos watches and if I saw one I would think it was a fake.......interesting.

I just ran across this thread. Would rolex change one of these vintage dials of the owner wanted a company logo removed?

Yes, at least a few years ago when I sent my Pool 5500 in for service, they offered to sell me a new dial but noted it wouldn't be the same.

I have learned that this P logo belongs to Pioneer Gas Products (later Pioneer Petroleum, eventually bought out by T Boone Pickens). Other Pioneer Gas award watches exist with the logo on the clasp instead of the dial.

It states on the site "Please note that the Coat-of-Arms was added later to the dial. So it's a repainted and customised dial." It does look reasonably well-done though :)

can't believe I almost bought one of these in highschool

[Odenvy]

Hi. Is there anyone who can put a logo on my existing dial now?

[coffeelawyer]

Is it possible that the WJ on the Nick Price dial is for Windsor Jewelers? Windsor is a large Rolex AD in Augusta, GA (Home of Augusta National).

These are given to the best college quarterback in the nation every year. Payton Manning, Tim Tebow, Watson, etc. have one. I actually came across Michael Bishop's Davey O'Brian Day-Date at a pawnshop years ago. Full kit with papers stamped with his name on it and directly from Rolex. It was offered to me at a really good price and I passed. Probably the biggest missed and dumbest move I've done in this hobby.
