    A friend of mine got me this watch for my birthday but I've been unable to find anything about it online... I'm sure it's not a Panerai-quality watch, but I really like it and just want some more info about it... It looks like an Invicta in terms of the number font and style, but I can't find anything on Invicta's website about it...

    Has anyone ever seen another one of these or owns the same watch?

    I don't like to be the bearer or bad news, but it appears to be an imitation Ferrari watch, Sorry :(

    Ha - I actually figured as much - I was just curious if they were common...

    It just seems to be a little nicer than the rip-offs I usually see... And it does have Swiss Movement - of course I guess the Chinese are getting good at making copies of that too... :)

    The only recent licensees for Ferrari watches have been Girard Perregaux and Panerai and either would say so on the dialface and caseback. Your watch looks like a hybrid between a Franck Muller Conquistador case/dialface plus a GP chronograph layout, but with a red theme.

    I can see the similiarities between the Conquistador and my fake :)

    Like I said, I had assumed it wasn't worth much, just kinda curious if there were others like it floating around...

    Unless Ferrari sues me for wearing non-licensed merchandise - I think I'll just go on wearing it happily... ;)

    It looks nice to me, I would definitely wear it and not worry for a minute about who made it :)

    Usually easy to find on ebay. Search for watches and then Ferrari.
