The gold Rolex Day-Date is truly up there as one of the greats. For many, it is the watch that put Rolex on the map of high-end luxury watches - highly sought after and exclusive at its peak.
This historic model was responsible for the very first example of a date and fully spelled day on the dial.
It is debated how it gained its nickname of the Rolex “President”, as it has been a favourite of multiple US presidents over the years - presented to Eisenhower in the 50s by Rolex themselves or owned by 60s legends JFK and Marilyn Monroe…
This example is in beautiful condition throughout, presented on a new leather strap with the original gold Rolex pin buckle. An extra quirk of this example is the “Wide Boy” dial markers and hands - twice as wide as the traditional markers and hands and much less common, very desirable.
