Definitely got tricked today
So I was playing poker today and the dealer of all people sit down and it catches my eye. A Two Tone Rolex Daytona. I get so excited to talk to him about the watch and ask how long he has it etc and then he puts his hand closer to me to give me a card and boom no Rolex Crown in sight.
Moral of the story is from far away I definitely thought this was a Rolex Daytona and would've definitely asked him about it until he put his wrist a little closer to me. The watch looks crazy similar. Never knew it existed until I googled "Two Tone Daytona look alike" Sent from my SM-G950U1 using Tapatalk |

Are you trying to tell us it is an Invicta?

It's not even a decent chronograph.
I can't imagine why anyone would bother go buy one. It's a complete waste of money.

As he said, some people would say that about the Daytona, myself included. You may hold similar opinions on some of my watches, but I feel no need for you to address that.

Some people would rather spend $50-200 on an Invicta and use the $10-20,000 on a car or a vacation and they still know what time it is. It’s a valid choice. No one doubts that Rolex makes a better watch.

I never diss other folks watches. Too each their own. I will say for the $$ Invicta has a some nice watches out there with decent Swiss or Japanese movements. I personally have an Invicta Diver with SW-200 movement. I am not a big fan of their "gigantic" watches ... but maybe that is because I have a small wrist. I can see guys with large wrists liking Invicta's ... They definitely have lots of Unique Wrist art! :)
