Invented almost 60 years ago, The Rolex Day-Date was the ideal masterpiece of the Rolex with a day-date feature. It is also being called a “President’s watch” because all of the presidents of the United States of America have been wearing it at some point.
But the whole story of the Day-Date watch began in 1948. In this year the director of the Rolex presented a 18kt yellow gold Datejust watch to Dwight D. Eisenhower, the president of the United States of America, to celebrate the Allied victory over the Nazis in World War II. Eight years later the “President’s watch” needed a new bracelet. The bracelet with a concealed clasp, which was supplied to Eisenhower by the Rolex, was nicknamed “The President’s bracelet”. At the same year the new watch of the Rolex Day-Date was introduced and nicknamed “The President”. Since these times the Rolex Day-Date has always symbolized exclusivity, welfare and power.
