p150In the now famous picture of Barack and Michelle Obama hugging, posted on his official Twitter page after his reelection on November 6th (now the most retweeted picture ever), President Obama can be seen wearing his Jorg Gray watch. The Jorg Gray 6500 was given to him as a gift by the Secret Service before his first election in 2008. Obama has worn this watch, bearing the Secret Service seal, on several occasions (in addition to his Tag Heuer Aquaracer). In honor of his election, Jorg Gray released a special edition of the watch with a commemorative seal on the case back, which they are currently selling at a discounted price to celebrate his reelection.
