Eisenhower, features a calendar mechanism that displays the date and day using the self-winding Oyster movement.As the most prestigious classic Oyster, the Day-Date is made of gold or platinum, the most precious metals. The Day-Date can display the day in a wide choice of languages and is presented here in yellow gold.
