50 of these watches were produced for the Egyptian Navy in 1956. The watches were made in two types one using the Angelus calibre 240, signed "Luminor", the other using the Rolex 16 lignes movement, signed "Radiomir" both ref:6152. The security lever was not used on these watches, instead the Rolex Oyster crown was utilised as it was less expensive and met the requirement for the watch to be able to withstand 20ATM of pressure.
