I guess since I don't have a watch store I'd have to buy?

Don't wear a watch, so if I did have one, I would sell.

They're pretty meh.

They use a marketing ploy where they mark the MSRP about $1200, but you get get this great watch for only $300. What a steal, right? Just read online, their customer service sucks, you have to pay for everything when it breaks even if under warranty. I would steer clear.

I've had a few Invicta's, however I've always gone for the more subtle ones. I wear one of their Pro Diver's pretty regularly, and it's held up well over the last couple of years. Maintenance can be an issue because they don't have any real brick and mortar stores that you can go in to and get serviced. So you have to ship the watch back to Europe (where they'll probably ship to Japan) to have it serviced.

I wear the automatic movement Pro Diver so I don't really worry about battery life. It's a Japanese movement as opposed to a Swiss movement, so some might question the build quality. But for $100, it'll do.

Also...which Invicta are you looking at? Here's mine: http://www.amazon.com/Invicta-8926OB-Stainless-Automatic-Bracelet/dp/B000JQFX1G

I have 2. Both diver automatics and I wear them all the time. Good watch for the money.


Life is good!
