I'd ID this as a Jump Hour instead of a President.

Do we have any ads showing it as a President?

Nice Watch!!!

I believe that there is a 1935 President jump hour listed in one of the watch books I have.  There was one 1935 I missed in the Bay about 6 months ago.  The seller was listing it as a 1950s at the time.  Didn't realize just how uncommon (not rare ;-} ) they were at that time. 

Kicking myself now.

The Jump Hours are some of my favorites.  Came with both 13 and 10 series movements.

How in the heck do you set these "jump hour" watches? It seems to have a regular stem like a normal watch but I'm not seeing how the watch would set.

the watch works the same as one with hands, except instead of hands it has printed disks that turn, as the hour min and secs hand would turn, displayinfg the time. winds and sets the same. I believe there are some pics of the uncased mvmnt somewhere on here that show better than I can explain but just picture differant sized overlapping discs with the numbers printed on them instead of hands.
