The 218206 is the platinum Day-Date II, the 41mm President made from 2008 to 2015 and the watch most collectors picture as the "President's President." Platinum is the metal Rolex reserves its ice-blue dial for, and the 218206 wears it, with a smooth platinum bezel and the platinum President bracelet on the larger 41mm case and the caliber 3156. It is the Day-Date II in its most coveted form, even though the 41mm size that defines the generation proved divisive enough that Rolex stepped back to 40mm in 2015. | The 218206 is the platinum Day-Date II, the 41mm President made from 2008 to 2015 and the watch most collectors picture as the "President's President."
