Looking for a decent Rolex homage or knock off or fake for a buddy. He is not a watch guy but likes the Pepsi bezel. Any suggestions in the range of 2-300 ( I don’t like him that much lol). Did a little searching on older forums and saw a few suggestions but nothing recent. Thanks and feel free to PM me vs blowing up this thread if you prefer.

Any Rolex knock-off in that price range will be absolute garbage. I'd suggest looking into Relax watches instead of a cheap fake. A couple members on here have them and were happy with the build quality. There's also VSF clones, but they are $600-$1,000. Here's a VSF Pepsi that a friend of mine owns...

I’ll second that on Relax. I own one. It’s drastically better than any Rolex clone for under $700 if not more. It’s honestly a better made watch than some Swiss watches I’ve seen. The steel of the case is as hard as a Glock slide. I’ve scratched up the faux rose gold plating on my bracelet, but I haven’t hurt the crystal or bezel. And it’s as comfortable to wear as an Omega, Hamilton or Rollie (these brands tend to have most comfortable bracelets in my humble opinion).

I'll second (or third) the Relax. Solid stainless bracelet, end links, and case. Finished well. Ceramic bezel and sapphire crystal will last decades. NH35 movement is a solid runner, and super easy to find parts for if anything should arise. If I remember, I think they can be bought new in the mid 300's, perhaps a little less.
