Did Rolex Make A President Day Date with Datejust Dial??

I know this is probably a really stupid question, but I'm a Rolex Newby.. Did Rolex ever make a President Oysterquartz with a datejust dial? There is a store here in Sarasota, Florida selling one for $10,500.

The store has a watch displayed as a Day/Date that does not have a "Day" window?

I didn't believe so, the watch is actually pictured as a datejust with a day and date window..
Here's a link to it

Still being super green in the Rolex knowledge department, I wonder how many of the other watches they have for sale are bogus.. I sent them a message through their contact me link asking about the discrepancy with the watch face and this was their reply:

Hello Jason,

Thank you for your email

The watch does not come with box or papers, however, it is a custom dial, and that's the reason for the Datejust instead of Day-Date

The Watch is 100% Authentic Rolex Watch

Please let us know if you have any other questions

With kind regards,
​Mikhail​

Why would Rolex make a Day-Date with a DateJust dial?

You can also see part of the serial number on the lugs in one of the pictures,
looks like 95574##. Note that on the oysterquartz series the serial number is
on the back on the lug since the bracelet is non-removable. You can also make
out the 'Registered Design' stamping on the other lug, again correct for model.

As CC points out, the other case hallmarks are correct for the model (although worn).
Looks like a legit watch to me with aftermarket/refinished dial and bezel. I personally
would not buy it due to the aftermarket mods.

Finally someone else with sense and not just stating fake with no explanation cheers, band looks promising all the hallmarks on one side like most oysterquartz

Yep dial and bezel are not Kosha but if the price is right those problems can be corrected for under a grand.
