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.

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).

"Those familiar with the Rolex Air King collection have likely browsed plenty of popular models. While a number of these references are common for collectors to have heard of it’s safe to say that fewer are familiar with the Domino’s Rolex, which isn’t a nickname coined because of a particular color or style, but rather the label given to Rolex watches made especially for the giant pizza chain." Super interesting and very informative read! |

Does anyone know what the criteria is for someone getting a unique logo or dial from Rolex? Do you have to be a big customer, buy in bulk or can anyone just request a special logo? thanks

![]() It seems that practice was discontinued long ago. The final examples I can think of are "King of Bahrain" dials and "Nigerian Coat of Arms" dials from 2009 or so. |

Was really green at first. I wear it all the time in the sun and the leaf is like a turquoise now.

Apparently 100 of these were made for Standard Liege (2009 Belgian football champions):
