I've only seen the 116598 at the AD .... Never out and about or "in the wild"

I believe it depends on you personal style. Some members already pointed out that Rolex watches are in general very timeless and even a vintage Rolex can be worn with great appreciation among people in their 20's.

In my oppinion the SUB or the new SS models are true style-icons that you can (almost) never go wrong with.

However I am definately NOT a fashion expert.

I am 22 and own a BLNR.

Great pics Andre

I have to ask what little creature resides in that box beside you in the first picture?

samson66 · 14 March 2018, 09:19 PM

You just can't go wrong with a black Sub at any age. It's one of the few that works as well in your 20's as it does in your 80's. If you have a >7" wrist and/or perfer larger watches, maybe the SD43 instead.

rudestew · 14 March 2018, 09:55 PM

I wish I could squeeze into skinny jeans lol , looking cool guys I think you could pull any watch off mate

mjclark32 · 14 March 2018, 10:19 PM

I’ve been wearing a 16610 since I was 24/25

Yobber76 · 14 March 2018, 10:19 PM

I've got a 25 year old son that loves my SubC ND.
I don't think he would be into anything but the SS sports watches.
He does like 42-43mm sizing, whereas I like 40mm and below.

soran · 14 March 2018, 10:29 PM

Any sports steel rolex will look good

TimelessQuality · 14 March 2018, 10:39 PM

Milgauss Z Blue.

Not my photo but it really captures it well:

Yes I think that is a good joke that never gets old...

You beat me to it by a few hours. I will say that I felt years younger just trying it on at the Wynn a few years back.

Anything on Oysterflex will give you a youthful look. Problem is every watch thus far on OF is PM, making them unobtainable to most of us younger folks.

Raza_actual · 14 March 2018, 11:21 PM

Milgauss or Air King would be the most fun and funky, I think. The least conservative watches Rolex makes, probably.

lamnyc · 14 March 2018, 11:35 PM

None. Everyone I know in their twenties do not wear watches.

This. I can appreciate the helpful recommendations in this thread, but I'm often baffled by this sort of question. Wear what ever fits with your lifestyle and pleases you.

watchwatcher · 15 March 2018, 12:45 AM

I would think the steel Sky-Dweller would be a "younger" watch...plenty of size and flash. But really, just about anything.

Agreed.

Young Hipster: Old Sport or TT DJ on strap. While the new sport watches are no doubt amazing, they are a little too big and shiny for most of these buyers. Plus, they are more interested in "style" that is harder to achieve than going to the local jeweler and buying it.

Young Conservative Banker type: OP or similar in SS.

The young kids in my neck of the woods are not interested in any new Rolex. Just the oldies. In this circle the YM is for old folks. The New Air King does not even register. An old 36MM Air King is good though.

dr35mm · 15 March 2018, 01:08 AM

ND Sub or Sub Date.

Auerr · 15 March 2018, 01:20 AM

Currently 26 and guess all of them look young if you mix and match them with a proper outfit? :D

Romeomikehotel · 15 March 2018, 01:23 AM

In my 20s. I wear a TT GMT 2 on a jubilee

breitlings · 15 March 2018, 01:39 AM

daytona seadweller sub or gmt master

ejj · 15 March 2018, 01:40 AM

Ha. This thread has morphed into "what is your opinion of style" these days.

I guess there are a lot of styles at every age. And most people like their own sense of style.

To some, cost = style. To others, not as much.

I could see an argument for ym2 being youthful.

You · 15 March 2018, 01:55 AM

I wear a Bluesy and I’m 21. When I was 18-20 I wore a SubC ND, and a Explorer I.

This was my first watch but ended up trading it up for an 114060. Bought the OP39 at 24 though.
