I know....crazy! Unless I’m going on a boat or swimming.....jeans or chinos. Once I hit my mid 40’s , just kind of happened....I’m fairly old school thinking I guess. I also live in N GA mountains for the summer now that I’ve retired.

Write that extra SMALL next time as that opinion is controversial.

All of the above would work, but the Explorer would my first choice as it is very low key.

Rolex, though expensive, are casual watches. There really is nothing formal about them. Most people wear a watch and don't rotate a collection thinking about what is appropriate. Wear any and all Rolex watches anywhere at anytime and don't over think it.

Either that or start wearing reading glasses when using the computer. The only people I know who need to write that large are the ones who can't see. At any rate, gold for dress is in the mind and not written anywhere that I know of. My wedding band is gold and I always wear it.

Gold Sub is the ultimate choice.

But really just wear whichever model if your favorite. Any professional model will look the part in shorts and a tee.

Its your watch, wear whatever attire that you feel comfortable with it. I ever saw an uncle wearing slippers, singlet, short pants and a gold DD in a coffee shop.

Any of them. But where I'm going might influence the selection, assuming I have a selection to choose from.

Any non pm timepiece can go with shorts and a t-shirt. I personally wear my 5167a on rubber to the dog park with shorts and t-shirt often.

That list works great. Any would work. The one you like the most. I prefer Subs but would wear any on your list. Exp II polar is also a nice casual option.
