A legendary timepiece with an unrivaled history, the Rolex Day-Date has earned its place as "The Ultimate Watch of Prestige" from its decades on the wrists of the world's most influential people. Released in 1956, the Day-Date quickly became synonymous with luxury, prestige, and exclusivity thanks to being the watch of choice for the world's athletes, visionaries, and world leaders alike. Only ever constructed of precious metals, the Day-Date's aesthetic is that of sheer elegance and grace. Aside from the beautiful array of dial options that have been available over the decades, the Day-Date's most iconic piece of design is its three-piece "Presidential" or "President" bracelet. Forming the bedrock of its design, the Presidential bracelet has become synonymous with Rolex's flagship collection and their desire to create the very best and most iconic watches that the world has ever seen. With its timeless design and inescapable impact on horology, the Day-Date stands as a vivid reminder of just how successful they have been in realizing that very mission.

Watch is in excellent overall condition. The case and bezel have light surface wear, with minor marks and dings visble along the surface. Original platinum diamond bezel shows light edge wear commensurate with the rest of the case. The dial is near-mint, with original luminous plots intact with light spotting visible on a few of the dots. The original platinum president bracelet has 24 links total, 5 of which are removable. It currently fits an approx 7 3/4" wrist, and exhibits light play between the links.

An exhibition of the skill within Rolex's gem-setting department, this example's diamond-set bezel and dial are truly stunning and make it known to anyone who sees it that this watch is a special piece.
