Numerals Types

Arabic Numerals: They are the most commonly used numbers on the dials of watches. They consist of the numbers from 0 to 9. Arabic numerals are used to indicate the hours on analog watch dials, and they can also be used for minutes, seconds, or other time-related indicators.

The Eastern Arabic numerals or the Indian numerals: These include the numbers (1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9) and are used in conjunction with the Arabic alphabet in Arab-speaking countries in the Middle East.

Roman Numerals:

They have a distinctive and elegant appearance and are commonly found in classic or vintage watches. Roman numerals can be used to indicate the hours and sometimes the minutes on watch dials.
