Mall Jeweler Compliments your 'Invicta' when it's a Rolex. You say?

So I went to a budget mall with the GF yesterday. I went in to a 'jeweler' in the mall that typically is known for selling Tag Hueur as their top brand. There was nothing in the mall close to a toy store for me, so I ended up here as the closest thing to a toy store I was going to get.

They didn't have much in line of Tag so I just started browsing, then he kinda stopped and said with a cocky smirk, 'Nice Invicta, where'd you get it?'

I think this was kind of in response to me not salivating over his Tags.

I didn't give him a glance at my watch, which is a 116710LN. I just said, 'oh this one? I forget where I picked it up.'

I just got my first Rolex a little over a week ago and my first compliment was calling it an Invicta.

I wonder if there is an Invicta out there that looks like a GMT?

I didn't want to sound like a snob or ungrateful, so I just went with him on it being an Invicta.

Hypothetically, how would you have responded?


Edit: I wasn't offended, just an amusing anecdote I thought I'd share with my new fav forum
