Saddam Hussein's custom-made gold Rolex

"The custom-made gold Rolex, with dozens of diamonds laid into the watch face and bracelet, is the centrepiece of his collection. The Mail on Sunday has confirmed that the watch is genuine and Wihaib's £100,000 valuation is accurate."

You can read the story and see the photos here:

The watch seems to be a Day-Date.

I think Saddam Hussein really needed the Dior sunglasses in order to read the time from that Rolex watch. Otherwise the watch would be too shining and hurt his eyes.
