Per the ads, I do not see the President models after 1956, though they continue to be listed in the pricelists. The Lexington shows up in ads strating in 1956, and is not in the 1955 pricelists.
The Lexington 'A' and Pres 'A' both use the same model number 31113 at $49.50.
I would say that 1956 looks to be the transition year from President model to Lexington. Slight difference in the expansion band style.

In true Bulova fashion they like to keep us guessing 60 years later :-)
I agree with the notion that this watch was rebadged as the President sometime in 1957. Did anything note worthy happen that year that put the President of the United States ("Ike") in the bad books and out of public favour?
