I read Arabic. I can make out most of the Arabic on your watch. It appears to me to say in Arabic (underneath the coat of arms) - "The Kingdom of Saudi" But that's not all it says, only part of it. That's just two of the Arabic words on the watch. You can compare the Arabic on your watch to the Arabic that is on wikipedia.org for Saudi Arabia. See this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saudi_Arabia I think you will see that two of the words on your watch are similar to what is called "al-Mamlaka al-ʻArabiyya as-Suʻūdiyya" or "The Arab Kingdom of Saudi." (Al-Mamlaka = Kingdom and as-Su'udiyya = Saudi). I can't read what the other words on your watch say.
