The presidential line of rolex was started in 1956. The day is spelled at hour location 12 and the date at 3. Inside it used to be a complex watch with automatic movement, additional discs for day and date making it a large and thick watch, these days its a lot slimmer compared to earlier years.. The watch makes a bold statement on the hand. The watch became popular after addition of the concealed clasp. 

The first model (6511) lasted around an year and was replaced by a similar model 6611. This newer model featured the new calibre 1055 movement with its free sprung Micro-Stella balance and was the first to be labeled "Superlative Chronometer Officially Certified" on the dial. This set the new accuracy standards in watches. 

The watch earned its name "President" after Rolex reportedly gave one of these watches to the then President of the United States Dwight Eisenhower. 

With only a few design changes over the years the first modification to the President watch was the addition of the hack feature in 1972. This allows the second hand to be stopped if you wanted to set the time via a preset accurate source. At this time the shape of the head was essentially the same as it is today. The President watch was available in white gold, yellow gold, pink gold and platinum although during the early 1930's the pink gold watch was fazed out. From the end of 2000 the Day Date has been available in pink gold again.

The presidential watch is well known around the world for class and style.
