Time Relic: Certina Watch Featuring Saddam Hussein On eBay
Here is an interesting and rare find that will likely appeal to collectors of dictator paraphernalia. A Certina brand watch with a happy little picture of the now dead former Iraq leader Saddam Hussein. The Certina brand is controlled by the powerful Swatch Group who is now using Certina as a means of releasing classically styled sports watches such as the Certina DS-1 and DS square.This Certina watch was liked commissioned by the Iraqi embassy and was reportedly distributed in 2001 in Warsaw Poland during a political delegation. Interest groups, associations, and companies will often commission self branded or designated watches to commemorate an event or affiliation. This just happens to be a particularly macabre example given the history and reputation of the reign of Saddam Hussein.
Fluted Rolex Watch Bezels: Seminal Bling
What do each of these watches have in common? Yeah, they are all Rolex watches, but there is something else here that Rolex is best known for; fluted bezels. The tooth like shaping on the area around the face of the watch has a very specific purpose.Around the time I first began to notice my appreciation for watches, I also began to notice how I did not care for Rolex watches. Since then, my tastes have developed and there is a lot of room for Rolex appreciation. Still, some of the models just don’t do it for me. And most of those models feature a fluted bezel.
