Solid yellow gold at 31mm on the President bracelet: the full-luxury version of the midsize Datejust.
The 31mm size is the market's favorite right now, and full gold examples are scarcer than the two-tone ones that dominate supply.
Gold's floor value plus midsize demand make it one of the steadier climbers in the ladies' market.
The President bracelet stretches with age, so check it carefully, and expect a service on any example that has not had one recently.
Our verdict: B: full gold in the hottest size, with metal value underneath.
