Invicta Men's Pro Diver Collection Coin-Edge Automatic Watch

After almost four years of wearing this watch, guess it’s time for a review. I love it. This is such a great value for the price. And luckily over time, the price for this hasn’t gone up, in fact it might’ve even gotten cheaper. Either way, it’s worth way more. In regards to looking like the Rolex submariner, it nails it without being cheesy. I didn’t see it listed as being sapphire but I’ve worn this primarily as a work watch (I’m a nurse) and the crystal doesn’t show any wear after all this time. In fact the only wear on this watch is where the clasp has rubbed against stuff when I’m using a

First I'll just say the one I received did not have the yellow rotor on the back nor the yellow box. I received a plain metal rotor and an amazing box that looks like an ammo canister. I'm not upset with the change but if you are looking for that specific model you might not get that here. This is the newer version of the same exact watch with the same model #. I own quite a few watches from G-Shock, Citizen, Seiko, Tissot, and Tag. I've been building my collection for awhile now and I suppose that I'm purchasing this watch in reverse order. I wanted to compare it to the others that I have acq

For the price, this is amazing!To get it out of the way, there is ONE niggle: I woud rather have a bright white coat on the pointers, than the neon-green "lume" paint. "lume" in modern watches is nothing but a gimmick, as the original lume coats in the first half of the 20th century were radio-active! We don't have those anymore, so modern lume only glows, when a watch is "charged" in bright light, and it only lasts a minute or two, so is totally useless and dark at night.Otherwise, this Invicta is a lovely watch, both tough and dressy (which is almost impossible) and maybe my favourite ever,

2 YEAR EDIT: So after I returned from Punta Cana I dried out the watch, tightened the case back, and have been wearing it ever since without issue. I can report that after a week in the water in Mexico last summer that issue has been resolved. I still wish I had spent the extra 50 bucks and got the Phoibos or Seiko, but for the money you really can't complain. The upside is that I wear this on adventure vacations and don't worry about it getting lost, broken, or stolen!EDIT 2: The winding/power issues have settled down, I just wind it manually a bit every few days. Which I have heard is common

October 2014, 19 month update. Quite honestly I haven’t a clue regarding the accuracy of this watch movement. The following paragraph are previous accuracy reports which consistently recorded negative losses in time. After several months off wrist in a drawer but with daily crown (stem) winding the accuracy continued to diminish up to a loss of 40 seconds a day which was unacceptable to my standards. After these several months off wrist I started wearing the watch again and much to my surprise the watch actually started gaining time for the first time. This was with winding the movement with g

My first dive watch was Seiko's first dive watch, the 62 MAS introduced in 1965. I've collected watches ever since.The watch pictured next to my Ball Skindiver is the Seiko Prospex Reinterpretation of that original watch, their newer 1965 Automatic Diver's Watch SPB051J1. I wore that original Seiko dive watch for more than 20 years without service of any kind, through thousands of dives. Their new "reinterpretation" is much improved.I bought my first Invicta 9937 to replace that original Seiko many years ago, mostly because I liked the Submariner look, and it served me wonderfully well until a

2 months ago I purchased the Invicta gold 8930 and really liked it. I got hooked on Invictas. Then a man I do business with showed me his Rolex Submariner, proud of it, for only $5000. Well, I love the look but not the price. I looked at the Invictas on Amazon and found almost an exact duplicate, the 8926-C (coin bezel) for under $90. I have been wearing it constantly for a month now and really like it. It runs about 4 min. fast a month but that's not a big deal to adjust it. I understand that will settle down to a smaller amount over time. The watch looks great, and almost exactly like the R@

I bought what I thought would be a cheap and cheerful Rolex submariner copy (or homage if you prefer - but lets face it COPY as its a direct clone of a Rolex 16610) to temporarily scratch an itch for a vintage Tudor submariner that is currently way beyond my means. I liked that this was a bona fide dive watch, waterproof to 200 Metres, and would be a chance for me to try an automatic watch for the first time and get used to them. I was expecting the bracelet to be a bit cheap and nasty - but wasn't bothered as I planned to wear it on a nato or perlon strap anyway and was thinking basically "if
