路I'm no expert but I think that is a picture of King Abdul Aziz.
He was the first King of the modern day country of Saudi Arabia.
He started unifying the various tribes in 1902 and ruled the Kingdom until 1953.
The image resembles pictures of him with the same headband and beard (see picture below).
So, for the Saudis, it's kind of like putting George Washington's picture on a watch.
You never know, it might be worth more money with the image on it.

路路Purrrr-veyor of luxury cat box loungersThere are quite a few of this type of watch knocking about as they were given as gifts by the Saudi Royal family.
You can find them with the Emir of Bahrain too.
Would I buy one?
No.
I remember a couple of years back a member turned up with one in good condition and was told the image hurt the value - but he got pretty much normal market value for it - so there are folks out there (most likely Saudis) who do buy them.

However maybe an engraved back case would be enough...
