President?

I have a YG Date-Date 36 with an Oyster bracelet.

Is it fair to call it a President even if it doesn't have a President bracelet?

It’s the bracelet that is really called the President…to call ia Day Date a president with an Oyster bracelet would seem a bit silly to those who know

I mean, it doesn't matter to me what you call it, but, yes, when I think of a Rolex President, I think of the president bracelet. Nothing wrong with "just" having a Day-Date.

Still a great watch

I agree and that's why I asked.

I don't know if this website has any credibility, however, if it is to be believed, you are all welcome to call me Mr. President....

No, it's a Day Date and comes on either an Oyster or President Bracelet.

It's not a President that comes on an Oyster bracelet.
