First rolex help me pick?

2 tone datejust jubilee w jubilee dial and diamond

Or the white milgrauss

The datejust is nice. I am only low 20s so it seem to old for me but the jubilee dial makes it young but I do not know if its too flashy w all the rolex lettering and diamond. Is it too classy for everyday wear?

The white milgrauss and nice and simple. But I was thinking if I'm going to pay something that much as long as get the datejust where I can where it for years to come

I never had a rolex before I always wear movado. But I jus gave both to my younger brother

Thanks I appreciate your opinion. I am thinking to go get a watch tomorrow. They are only offering me 15 - 17 percent.

Or any other models you would recommend

The problem I have noticed with a young person wearing a watch that's too "flashy" is that other people automatically think it's fake. But you should wear what you like, not what others think you should have. That being said, the problem with the Milgauss is that it does not have a date function which reduces its value as a daily wearer.

I have the two tone DJ with jubilee dial and diamonds and I mostly wear it on formal occasions.

I saw the exact model of the TT DJ you are looking at on a very young person and I was actually thrown back by how nice it looked! The gold jubilee face with the diamonds was stunning!

He was only wearing shorts and a t shirt too and I thought it looked great. My vote goes for that!

Dj

You can't go wrong with a TT DJ, unless you really don't like the dressy/sporty look of a DJ. If you'd prefer all stainless, any of the "sport" models as well as the Milg, SS DJ, and AK are fine choices.
