The Day-Date

Rolex day-date in yellow gold with black dial

The Rolex Day-Date, frequently referred to as the "President" due to its affiliation with different world leaders, is an image of distinction, luxury, and timeless class. Presented in 1956 with the first reference 6511, the Day-Date was the first wristwatch to show both the day of the week and the date in full on the dial.

The Rolex Day-Date created so many diverse reference model and an infinity configuration of dials from glossy dials to a different choice of stones to wood dial. Isn't as it were a timekeeping instrument but too a image of success and achievement.

Its classic design, coupled with Rolex's commitment to exactness and craftsmanship, has made it a staple within the world of luxury watches.
