Zach Tinker

Part of the look was that the actor had just spent years playing a totally different character on the same show and this was the first time we were seeing him as the new character. I'm sure they told Zach Tinker to play up that angle a bit, since the audience may have been confused and wondering why 'Ben' was back and shirtless in the Kiriakis living room.
Zach plays two different characters on the show?

No. Robert Scott Wilson played 2 different characters on Days. First he played Ben Weston. After Ben rode off into the sunset with Ciara Brady he was offered the part of Alex Kiriakis. That scene was Days giving us a little tongue-in-cheek.

It's a little like Clark Kent. They put a pair of glasses and a suit on Robert Scott Wilson and everyone is supposed to pretend like we don't see the same face and hear the same Boston accent.

At least the series does a wink wink by having other characters constantly saying, "Something about you seems familiar".

Since the reincarnation of Robert Scott Wilson as a man-whore, and the replacement of Freddie Smith with Zack Tinker, we're getting a lot more semi-naked man-flesh, polyamory and less geriatric story lines. Unfortunately, Will and Sonny have settled into monogamous bliss, where in the past Will was frequently cheating on Sonny or a shirtless Will was sharing a jail cell with Ben Weston in Statesville.
