President Barack Obama's watch

From 1991 to 2007, President Obama wore a Tag Heuer Series 1500 Two-Tone Diver watch. Dive watches are typically heavier and bulkier, but the old Series 1500 which he wore was particularly clunky, especially given that the President is a thin man. The watch really didn't suit him all that much, but it served him well.

Thankfully, in August 2007 his Secret Service detail bought him a much more appropriate and elegantly business-like watch for his 46th birthday. It's a Jorg Gray JGC6500 Chronograph that was purchased from the Secret Service store. It's basically a promotional watch on which one can place any logo, but it happens to be a quite accurate chronograph and also features water resistance to 100 metres.
