Featuring a scarce and especially fine condition 18K WG midsize President ref 78279 circa 1997. This is the extremely popular and elusive 31mm midsize Datejust with hidden clasp Presidential bracelet. A relatively recent production model in superb condition and with very tight hidden clasp Presidential bracelet. Featuring a fine condition 31mm Oyster case with fluted bezel, sapphire crystal, original factory tiritum lume silver dial and hands, and especially fine condition 18K WG Presidential bracelet with hidden clasp. Powered by the improved calibre 2135 automatic movement with quick set date. Recently serviced and in terrific preowned condition.

This is the first midsize white gold President we have had in decades. We have received many requests for the full size 36mm white gold Day Date, but we never see this 31mm midsize model. The original Rolex papers were not retained by the original owner, but of course guaranteed genuine and offered with our 1 year warranty of accurate time keeping and operation.

Only the man’s 36mm Presidential model has both the day and the date display. The midsize and lady’s Presidents show the date only, and are so designated when accompanied by the hidden clasp Presidential bracelet as shown here.

While this model is referred to by Rolex as the “midsize,” it is an ideal and popular sporty size for either a man or a women. For a woman it is an alternative to the considerably smaller 27mm lady’s model. A tough model to find particularly in this fine condition.

Your purchase includes our signature fine leather pouch, ideal for travel and storage, a $65.00 value.

NOTE: This watch is currently being serviced and will be available on Tuesday, June 10th.
