Saudi Arabia's New Leadership... & their watches :)
King Abdullah has passed away and a new leadership now heads Saudi Arabia. Amidst all the talk of energy and security relations, lets stay grounded and remember what really matters most - the watches! Ok, maybe not, but below are a few photos from the Associated Press that capture the old kind, new king, prince, and future prince's timepieces.
Can you identify them?? (some easier than others!) 
King Abdullah:
His successor, and half brother, King Salman:
King Salman's nephew, Muqrin bin Abdulaziz, appointed Crown Prince.
King Salman's son, Muhammad, the new Defense Minister.
Cheers and many thanks for all the great reports coming in from SIHH!

It's a sad day for us here in Saudi as we lost a father figure and a king
king abdullah was known for his love of watches and has a huge collection of Lange specially as I've bee told
Watch one - IWC Portuguese Mystere tourbillon
I believe I am right in that one, I have seen a few pics of him wearing this piece.
King Salman's son, Muhammad appears to wear...
... an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Montauk Highway limited edition. That one always carried special meaning for me, too. Perhaps I've unwittingly encountered the new Defense Minister at John's Drivie-In during an east end vacation... Best, Tim
