my little brother is 14 he wants a watch similar to rolex explorer 2
which is better out of these two?
or any other suggestions and please dont say buy the real thing . not for a 14 year old. hes just getting into watches

I would say that the Invicta is probably the better of the two.

I think it would be more than adequate for a young teenager.

Man that alpha is nearly identical... Either is fine. I'd rate them the same

I think he means that the two watches in your OP are nearly identical.

Does he want a 'knockoff' or does he want a quality watch? If quality is important check Seiko.

To a lay person I would say that it is near identical to a Rolex Explorer II.

I'd get the Alpha for the SEL.

I agree. Look at Seiko

Either one. I think there's a very good chance both of those watches come off the same assembly line in China.

And if he's not set on an Exp2 knock-off, I second the Seiko recommendation.
