The President Day-Date is a legendary dress watch with an impressive reputation for appearing on the wrists of American Presidents and various other world leaders throughout history. The all gold design on this vintage reference further elevates its status as a symbol of wealth and class and can be seen throughout the Oyster case. The case itself is framed with an elegant fluted bezel and is topped with a matching champagne dial with index hour markers, central sweep hands, and a day and date aperture at the 12 and 3-hour markers. Within the case lies Rolex's calibre 3055 self-winding movement with a single Quickset function that allows the wearer to change the date aperture quickly by twisting the crown.

Excellent condition!
I ordered this product late on a Thursday evening and it was delivered before noon on Saturday morning. The watch was in better condition than I anticipated and all parts were period correct. The crystal was a replacement crystal and hands were also replaced somewhere along the way as they were the only parts that had lume. the tritium on the hour indices has long since expired so for the hands to shine brightly, they were likely replaced - I'm good with this as the watch is much more practical as a result. If the watch wasn't clearly from the mid 80s based on a different case design (brushed lug hoods versus current day polished), I would think this was a relatively recent production piece. The bracelet has almost no sag and the clasp buckles tightly. Very happy with this purchase and experience
great condition as noted on website very happy
