& some DJ's

The President bracelet is reserved today for the Day-Date and for certain versions of the Datejust in precious metals.
It is always fitted with a Crownclasp

President is simply the name of one of Rolex unique bracelets in gold or platinum..

When the President bracelet is put on a men's Day-Date or a Ladies gold Datejust, the watch is then referred to (nick-named) as a men's or ladies "President". It doesn't really have anything to do with a person

Your bracelet is a two tone Jubilee bracelet on a ladies Datejust and doesn't have a nickname..
