Absolutely. Anything above 100 is dusty in my gym, and I only bust those out every 3/4 months for ego's sake. And inclined!? Super stuff. Last time I threw back (flat) 120's was 4-5 years ago.

/i'm old.

Depends on your bodyweight. 

Over 250lbs = strong, but not terribly impressive. 

200lbs or under = very impressive.

now add 5 lbs to each dumbell and  do 5 sets of them for 15 reps and then you're  almost as strong as me.             .                                                                                                                                                                                                      ALMOST :o :o :o :o :o :o

dumbbells mean shit. The  flat bench press is a bullshit lift too guys get a lot out of leg drive and arching. the incline bench is a far better test of strength because you can't cheat on it. I know a powerlifter who hit 450 raw and can't get 385 on the incline ::)

guy can incline bench 225 for 10 reps- he's not a pussy
275 for 10 reps- strong guy
315 for 10 reps- badass dude
405 for 10 reps- freak...legit 500-550 lb bencher

Depends on your form. If you are doing legit reps all the way down to your chest and all the way up to full flexion, then yes that is strong. If you are doing them like most and moving the weight a few inches up and down at the top of the ROM, then no it isn't particularly impressive.

and that's why at 21 I carry more size than a guy training 20 years like yourself? Strength has nothing to do with it ::)

 I carry a lot more size than you ever did. Those who know what I look like (now) can verify.

Assuming the tiny chance you're not just making stuff up and telling tall tales online to compensate for a tiny penis , obviously 120 x 15 incline is very strong.

If they're done slowly , full range of motion with a slight pause at the bottom.

If they're done the way I see 99% of gym goers doing them it's a bit less impressive

All depends how low you go.  Anyone can take 120lbs dumbbells and do half reps like 90% of the gym guys do.

you can pm them yourself and ask them then.
