Wearing a vintage Prince Oysterdate (1970s) as a PWM Summer Analyst at a top family firm is not only appropriate but also a great choice. Based on the most helpful WSO content, vintage watches like yours carry a sense of heritage and sophistication, which aligns well with the professional yet understated image expected in PWM. The fact that it’s a family heirloom adds sentimental value, making it even more special.
If you’re looking for alternatives or backups, here are some recommendations that fit the professional and subtle style for someone in your position:
These options maintain a professional appearance without being overly flashy, which is ideal for a PWM environment.

Had to look that up. Is it a Tudor? If so, yeah fine to wear, no one's really going to judge unless you get flashy. I'd be more worried about getting it too beat up if it's a family heirloom.
No one actually cares what watch you wear. As long as you’re good at your job and/or learn (in the case of an internship). And that you’re not a douche haha
idk bro flex ur wealth i work in ib as an analyst and have the best watch collection on the floor. i own 1M+ revenue wholesale sneaker business. just flex if u like that
