moey 0 Posted October 6, 2012 Haha, hi. Don't get all defensive, the title is only an icebreaker. I have a question related to though; what types of watches would a 19 year old wear? It would seem weird to bust out a rolex while at the local McD's (not that i eat there, but you get the point). What would you recommend I check out at my age? My only preferences is it's not rainbow-flashy colourful, and that it is not too, too chunky. Advice? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Diego_UK 0 Posted October 6, 2012 Definitely an Omega Speedmaster, or a Seamaster 300m. Or a Seamaster Planet Ocean. They're technically "sports" watches, so younger people like you and I can pull them off without seeming overbearing. And although you mention it might seem weird to bust out a Rolex at a McDonalds or some other casual location, I wouldn't be mad at you if I saw a Rolex Explorer or Milgauss on your wrist.

southall87 0 Posted October 6, 2012 Well you clearly like watches, otherwise you wouldn't be here now would you? Just do what I do, have a good look round till you find something that you think looks nice. Not all Rolexs are aimed at millionair buisness type men you know The Submarinar and Deep sea diver seem to be popular amongst yonger people, I'm 25 and currently have my eye on a white Explorer II or an omega seamaster.. undecided yet.. might end up getting both but will have to be after christmas now..

RichardMiami 4 Posted October 6, 2012 It it totally for real! I picked it up Beijing for the staggering sum of 5 rmb --- at today's rates.. that is 79 cents... although I did give it a red strap when I got home... the black plasticy one did not do it justice! (Damn red strap cost me about $5.... over six times the cost of the watch! ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
