Obama's Cellini has always been my favorite, but Roosevelt's Tiffany is also very cool. I like the new interpretations of that piece as well.

I never knew that model Cellini existed, it's so much better looking than the ones I am familiar with.
Great. Another to add to the ever-expanding grail list.

Woodrow Wilson's pocket watch is pretty awesome. Really like FDR's Tiffany too.
Who knew so many presidents like Vulcain Crickets?

I wish that watch were 38mm?
Re: Hodinkee’s Watches of the Presidents
I think it's a marketing angle by Vulcain. They gift watches to Presidents so they can continue calling themselves "The watch for Presidents".

Re: Hodinkee’s Watches of the Presidents
This was probably my favorite article I've seen on Hodinkee ever. What a fascinating read.
The thing that made the biggest impression on me though was how many President's watches get sold for incredibly cheap. I could have owned Harry S Bleeping Truman's personal watch for like $2k. Unbelievable.
