Robert Irwin wears a $23,750 Rolex as he makes a very stylish arrival in Sydney after very famous A-list star gifted one to his sister Bindi
Robert Irwin made a very stylish arrival at Sydney Airport on Tuesday.
The celebrity conservationist, 21, looked chic in a cream sweater paired with black pants and bright white Nike sneakers.
But it was the wildlife warrior's timepiece that really caught the eye, with Robert wearing $23,750 Rolex Deepsea watch on his wrist.
The watch may well have been gifted to him by Russell Crowe, who gave a Rolex to his sister Bindi two years ago.
Robert flashed a smile as he strolled through the terminal, talking on his smartphone and carrying a black shoulder bag.

He topped off the stylish look with a black baseball cap and classic aviator sunglasses.
Gladiator star Russell, 61, famously gifted his sister Bindi at Rolex back in 2019.
In June 2023, the actor played one-off gig with his band Indoor Garden Party at the Irwin family's Australia Zoo.
Bindi shared a video of the performance to Instagram, thanking the actor for the concert at the Queensland sanctuary.
'Incredible day @australiazoo. Thank you @russellcrowe, Indoor Garden Party. Music that moves your heart and soul. We love you!' she wrote.
In the accompanying video footage, the actor belted out some tunes before addressing the crowd.
Russell said that Australia Zoo is 'one of the best places in the world' for punters to get up and close with wildlife.
The Oscar-winner is a long-time supporter of Australia Zoo and friend of the Irwins, with his friendship to matriarch Terri sparking decades worth of romance rumours which she has ardently denied.
In 2021, Terri thanked the Hollywood star for his donation to Australia Zoo, which resulted in the rescue of an ailing kookaburra called Archie.
The year before, he gifted Bindi and her husband Chandler Powell a fig tree as a wedding present.
To celebrate his 56th birthday from afar in April 2020, the newlyweds hugged the tree in a sweet Instagram picture, since they couldn't see him in person.
In 2021, Terri denied she was dating Russell saying she was 'very very single'.
She told Access Hollywood in 2017: 'In all honesty, he (Russell) and Steve became friends many years ago, and after Steve passed, you find out who your true friends are. And Russell has been very loyal as a great friend.'
The mother-of-two hasn't dated anyone publicly since her late husband Steve tragically died aged 44 in a freak stingray accident in 2006.
