why does ben insist on pedaling fake rolexs ?

It's not a fake Rolex, it's a "homage". Fake Rolexs say Rolex on them, and look exactly like the real thing down to the markings on the caseback. Most 2nd tier watch companies (like Invicta, who some would not even give the benefit of a tier at all) have designs that are almost exact copies of famous watches. I have a very nice Luminox that looks a lot like a TAG from 5 feet away, but it's certainly not a fake.

Invicta packages decent movements into decent looking cases, and sells them for cheap. If you want to pay 100x as much for a name and a slightly better movement, go for it, but it won't keep time any better than this will.

#2 This is clearly a Rolex copy right down to the spacing and font of the lettering. No watch company will gain any respect in the marketplace with these "deceiving" looking watches. They do have some nice styles, but this nonsense taints the brand.
