ok, shattered expectations again, all (most) Arabic speakers agree it does seem Arabic,
but nobody recognizes the logo yet.

The theory it could be some Jordanian Royal Logo is off, as these all carry the crown logo, just like their airline.

here is the pm reply from our Jordanain member:

Hello,

this doesn't look familiar, i asked a friend who used to fly in the air force and he doesn't recognize it either. It looks like the letters "M" and "H" in arabic. I'll keep looking and let you know.

regards

Thanks all for all the input. According to one website, it's the logo of HRH Princess Haya... Cheers.

Thanks for updating us!

That's consistent with the suspicions that it was associated with the Jordanian royal family.

It is 100% H and M, in arabic. الهاء و الميم
Very nicely done indeed.
If it is for Princess Haya then the M stands for her Husband!
COOL

I'm pretty sure it's arabic, letters are meem and wow.

It could also be initials, I mean we haver no clue if this is a one off, it could easily be a husband and wife initials painted on the dial.


You got the Meem spot on, the arabic letter for the "M" sound. The other one looks like a Ha to me, the "H" sound in Arabic...
