The Watches Worn by Leaders from Syria, Egypt, Israel, Palestine, Jordan, & FTOs Reveal Key Insights About Power, Piety, & Defiance
While it may seem like a minor detail, analyzing a foreign leader’s timepiece provides a window into their character, how they perceive themselves, and how they want to be perceived by others. In the Middle East, a region so often defined by conflict, even small insights from a watch, the cut of a suit, a tie, or a lapel pin can fill intelligence gaps and inform analysis.
In our new video on the W.O.E. YouTube Channel, we identify, analyze, and discuss the watches worn by Middle Eastern political figures, because whether it’s the new Syrian President’s Patek Philippe, the Israeli PM’s Panerai, or an obscure digital watch favored by the Taliban and ISIS, in the world of intelligence, a watch is never just a watch.
