The President's Watch

[seamastery]

Hi folks, read this via a link on TZ and thought I should share it:

http://www.rolexblog.blogspot.com/

Very detailed research on the President's DateJust. Warning: It's a very long read, especially if you go thru all the correspondence. Do share your thoughts after reading it....

Makes me wonder: if a Supreme Commander/President can live with only 1 Datejust throughout his life (yes, and not even a Sub, Explorer, Sea-Dweller or GMT Master for that matter!), why would I need more than 1? Helps me ease the urge, you know what I mean...

Enjoy!

Oh tks for the link. I love reading the stories about the president series..heard that it was made for one of the US presidents..

To me the president's watch is one of the best watch Rolex had and...I am hoping to get it..soon.

I guess 1 thing Jake and I had in common was....our first INTERACTION with Rolex was when we were 14...and our first Rolex when we were 16.

My same old statment of justification for owning more Rolexes...

When you fly, wear a GMT II
When you dive, wear a Sub,
When you dive deeper, wear a SD
When you dive extreme depth, wear a Deepsea
When you climb high Mountain, wear a Exp II
When you sail, wear a YM
When you drive or watching F1 race this Sep, wear a Daytona....

When you date or attend any important func or gathering, wear any of the above either with the TT, WG or YG series... sure you will impress your guests. So? isn't that's enough good reasons for you to own more than a Rolex or even 3 GMT II with different finishes?

Got future!

If you read the article, you'll realize that the actual "President" watch is a DateJust.

Yes, Indeed President is a DJ, but a high-end version...
