The Day-Date is arguably one of Rolex's most sought-after models and has adorned the wrists of a number of key figures since its launching, including those of presidents of the USA. Hence, it is also known as the president's watch. Aesthetically not much has changed since the model was introduced in 1956, testament to its timeless character.
