During the 1970s, His Majesty Qaboos bin Said Al Said, commissioned Rolex to produce a number of watches often emblazoned with the Khanjar logo, or His Highness' signature at 6 or 9 o'clock. These special order models ranged from the Submariner to the Daytona and even the Day-Date. Watches equipped with "Khanjar" dials were presented as gifts to the monarch's closest dignitaries and officials. It was an honor and a sign of respect to receive a Rolex watch depicting the symbol of the state of Oman. Many of these watches are cherished by their original owners, rarely worn and passed down from generation to generation. The 6265 pictured features the Khanjar logo at 6 o'clock, inside the chronograph hour counter. Printed in shades of gold, it matches the gold graphics incredibly well. The watch itself is preserved in excellent condition, with crisp hallmarks and gold marks under the lugs. It still has its original pushers and bracelet, which retains its 71 end links. Even rarer is the presence of the factory sticker on the case back. It can be assumed that the watch has been worn only a handful of times.
