If he can't recognise human faces, don't think he'll have much chance with a watch.

I said yes. He said "Ten thousand?" I said no, quite a bit less, I have the non-date model. He smiled and we left.

I guess he didn't recognize me. I'm the Rolex specialist at the AD where I work and he's been in our store before.

I had the same thing happen to me this weekend. I was checking in to a hotel in Huntington Beach and I could feel the clerk eyeing my SS Daytona. I figured he was a watch enthusiast as well. At the end of the checking in process, he says "nice watch! Is that an invicta?" I said it's a Daytona. He had no clue what I was talking about. Haha

I'm surprised Invicta hasn't launched a lawsuit
