Watch Blog.
Press
Release Body: Los Angeles, CA- Rolex:
Roger Federer, a world-famous famous tennis-star, is obsessed
with his Rolex Day Date President at a time where young Hollywood
stars have been found sporting newer styles by Cartier, Gucci,
and Chanel. Rolex is a much more conservative brand and the Rolex
Day Date President which Federer sports is a watch that has primarily
worn by America’s CEO’S and presidents, including
Eisenhower, Kennedy, Nixon, Ford, and, now, even Barack Obama
and John McCain. What about this watch’s history is causing
so much renewed interest among today’s Hollywood elite?
The
Rolex
Day Date is also known as the ‘President’ for
a very unique reason. The chairman of Rolex presented President
Eisenhower with the Rolex Day Date in 1948 to celebrate the victory
over the Nazis in World War II. In 1956 Eisenhower’s watch
needed a new solid gold bracelet and Rolex delivered to President
Eisenhower a new bracelet with a concealed clasp. Soon after,
this bracelet became known as the “President” bracelet
and the Day Date watch was also nicknamed the “President”
watch. Given President Eisenhower’s public love for the
watch Rolex officially launched the wristwatch for public sale
that year, in 1956 and it became a huge hit.
Rolex
introduced a new version of the Day-Date this year, 2008. The
new Day-Date watch, the Rolex Oyster Perpetual Day-Date II, has
a new 41 cm case, larger than the old 36 cm case. It also features
a Parachrom-blu hair-spring and Paraflex shock-absorber which
makes it more resistant to shock and magnetism. Prestigious and
classy, the Rolex Day-Date is available in white-gold, yellow-gold,
rose-gold and platinum and are priced at around $20,000.00 retail
or around $8000 from Preowned Rolex watch retailers such as Melrose
Jewelers, http://www.melrosejewelers.com
Given
Rolex’s recent boost in popularity it seems that, once again,
America has fallen in love with all items affiliated with the
Presidency. Both Barack Obama and John McCain have been seen sporting
Rolex watches and as we enter an election period, the Rolex Day
Date President may become more popular than ever.
