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 :)

I know this is an old thread but I really enjoyed reading it and it shed some light on a few logo dials I have long wondered about so I wanted to add three more that I have in my small collection of Rolex Logo dial watches.
In my collection I have a few Cottonbowl Rolex and Tudors, a Gulf Offshore “Go” dial, an Aladdin lamp logo dial from Aladdin Industries, a very old company that made lunchboxes, lamps and much more and three others that I didn’t see on the list yet. They are:
“Brown & Root” which is a huge Industrial Service company out of Louisiana, USA.
“The King Ranch” which is a Texas ranch that is the largest ranch in the USA with 825,000 acres (1289 square miles/3340 square kilometers) which is larger than the state of Rhode Island or the country of Luxembourg.
And my pride and joy…”Dubble Bubble” which was the first brand of commercially marketed bubble gum back in 1928.
I have seen one other “King Ranch” Rolex that was identical to mine, but with a different color logo than mine has. The other two I have never seen other examples besides mine. I am fairly certain they are both genuine and I would be surprised if at least a few more weren’t made in a batch. I would love to know if anyone else has seen another “Dubble Bubble” especially?
Below are some shots of my three new additions to this great post:

Very nice, especially that Dubble Bubble. I'd take that over a Tiffany any day

Thank you! Yeah I have several Tiffany dials but not enough interest to put them in watches. The Dubble Bubble is one I’ve never seen another of and is super humorous to me. Glad you like it. I just wish it was in a Non-quick model.

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

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.

Michael Bishop! Haven’t heard that name in a while. He was the Quarterback for the team that knocked my high school out of the playoffs in Texas in 1994. He ran over me at least 3 times.

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

[SFmedic13]

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.
