Men's Watch

This is a brilliant watch for the money. Mine came in very nice packaging and from day one has kept fairly accurate time. If you want to the second accuracy buy a quartz watch. I wanted a watch that will never need a battery and will never need the back to be opened. And this one does the job perfectly. You will have to manually adjust the watch if the month has less than 31 days and to me that’s a convenient time to adjust the time if it has gained or lost a few seconds over the previous month. Also the bezel on mine has no slack whatsoever and the zero pointer matches 12 on the dial perfectly. The sweep of the second hand is very smooth. The bracelet on mine is well made and comfortable to wear. It was easy to adjust by removing a few links and is now a lovely fit. Going by online reviews, this watch is either accepted for what it is, ie a submariner lookalike, or it is a blight on watchkind. To me it is just a very nicely made and nice looking watch for an amazing price, and it has a very good Seiko mechanism inside. Win win all the way. If you are a watch snob you won’t bother anyway but if you want a nice accurate well built and good looking watch then don’t hesitate to choose this one.

I've had this watch for 12 years now. Still looks really great - the materials Invicta use are top notch, particularly the "gold-plate". I actually wear it as an everyday watch, including at work. I've had so many compliments over the years I simply couldn't add them all up. The weight and size of the self-winding Seiko movement adds heft to the watch, making it more impressive than the Quartz version. I get probably at least one compliment a week at work - often asking if it's a Rolex. On the negative side, as other people had noticed it does lose quite a few seconds, perhaps even 5 min a week, after 10 years or so. However it's possible to regulate the Seiko movement if you know what you're doing, to get it down to 1 min a week. I have two other Invictas - but this one gets by far the most use. Would wholeheartedly recommend - especially for the price! One of the best things I've ever bought - there's a reason why people collect Invicta watches. Edit: managed to regulate the watch and it now keeps pretty good time if worn daily. Definitely the best value watch I've ever bought and overall the favourite of my 4 Invictas.

Bought this for a holiday so i could have a watch that i didnt worry about while in the sea or pool. They seem to get look down on but I'm pleasantly surprised. i think it's a great wee watch. I have a smaller wrist and it wears great. Comfortable and 200m water resistant is pretty good. Easy to size the strap too. Easy to read the time and looks sturdy enough. For an automatic watch it's a good deal. Would give it 5 stars but the lume is terrible. No yellow movement on the back which I wanted but still worth the money. No issues with the time accuracy.

I wanted to buy a watch for my Nephew's 21st birthday. My brief was to get a really good looking watch that had the qualities of an expensive watch but would be a watch he would wear everyday and not be too frighted about either damaging or loosing. This Invicata ticked all the boxes. It has the good looks of a Rolex which let's face it a heck of a lot of watches aspire to. The black goes with everything. It looks good. It is a Man's watch really heavy and thick but it looks really good. This is awatch that will be noticed yet is really functional. It is water proof. I know that my nephew likes to swim and this is the watch for him. I got an automatic because this is the favoured watch if you dive or go in water quite a lot. If it were a battery whilst you can easily reoplace the batteries it is the seals that you need to watch out for. If the seals fail then the watch is ruined. A nice touch with this watch is the rear where there is a glass back that allows you to see the movement action. A convesation piece if you like. I already have an Invicta Watch and am pleased with it BUT this one does look better. It is a decent price for a really good looking watch. You do need to get a couple of links taken out of the strap unless you are a big body builder. A decent local jeweler will do this for you for around a fiver. Believe me it is worth getting a jeweler to do this for you because they know what they are doing and a fiver for a good fit and a good job is worth it. The jeweler that did mine gave me bags of advice like don't adjust the connecting part that folds to the max because this puts a lot of strain on the bracelet- better to take another link out. etc. Sound advice. With a bit of care it will run and run and if the worst does come to the worst its reasonable price means it will not be the absolutely disastrous loss that you would get with a Rolex. Post Script. My nephew was pleased with the watch.

This purchase was my first real watch, I was swapping up from a Timex easy reader and a series of crappy Mantaray watches. As penniless MA student I was looking for a nice looking watch that retailed around the £50-£60 mark, the options, based on extensive research seemed to be between this or a Seiko 5. Whilst the brand name is more well known with Sieko I chose this for its looks. It's what's tastefully called a "homage" to the Rolex Submariner. The Submariner being the watch I would wear if I was a millionaire... I was suspicions from a few of the review on here that I would be getting a cheap gimmicky plasticity rip off and was fully prepared to send it back the same day if it disappointed. However, this watch simply blew me away, The first thing of note was the striking yellow watch box. Obviously at this price point it's not leather, but instead seems to be lined with some sort of rubber-plasticity material. Whilst this might sound tacky it actually comes off really nicely, the top of the box is ridged to make it look like sand on a seabed and the smell of the rubber (which happens to remind me of childhood seaside excursions in rubber dingies) only adds to the nautical theme. guarantee cards and instruction manuals are nicely presented also in yellow, and the entire package comes across as a professional divers watch, on a budget. I do not believe for a second the Price tag of $315. If you paid that much you would be disappointed, I assume the tactic of the company here is to jack up the retail price so that they can reduce it back down to it's actual price. But for £60 this is a steal. The watch itself neither looks nor feels cheep. It has a comfortable weight and a smooth movement on the second hand. The lume isn't great but works well enough for me. The face of the watch is just gorgeous, It keeps catching my eye every time I glimpse it. The homage to the Submariner is faithfully done, the magnification of the date works perfectly and though the bezel is sticky and hard to move (it doesn't click into place like you'd expect it to) It is functional and looks wonderful. The only other area that betrays its lower price point is the dot of lume on the top of the bezel, in the place of the pearl on the Submariner. Obviously it's no pearl and when really looked at closely can look a bit cheap, but unless you're really scrutinizing the watch this isn't an issue. The open back allows you to show off the inner working of the watch and it looks great. The screw down crown is reassuringly solid, I have yet to try out the water resistance of this watch, but I wouldn't hesitate to take it into the pool on holiday with me. I'm afraid I don't know too much about watch bracelets as this is the first I've ever had, but it feels comfortable and stable on the wrist, I'm not expecting my watch to come flying off if "I throw a punch at some geezer!" The clasp seems solid too and is stamped with the Invicta logo. The side of the watch is also engraved with Invicta in large lettering, I imagine some might not like this idea, but it's actually not too noticeable and I really don't mind it. Setting the watch can be a bit fiddly first time but once you get the hand of it it's simple enough. A nice touch is that the second hand will stop when you set the time, allowing for real accuracy. All in all, I'm really surprised with the quality aesthetic of this watch, and it feels like a solid mechanical timepiece. A real watch at a low price.

I paid £63 delivered for the Invicta pro diver 9094 blue coloured model. I didn't expect much for such a cheap price, but I got a lot more than I paid for. The automatic movement inside is the Seiko N-H35A, bidirectional auto rotor winding, hacking, screw down crown, ability to hand wind as well, mineral glass (wish it had sapphire). Checked the watch carefully, no quality control issues, decent enough bracelet. Cyclops well positioned and actually does a great job of magnifying the date, main reason I bought it was trouble seeing the date on some of my other watches. If like me you see a beauty in automatic mechanical movements and incredulity that something purely mechanical, springs rotors cogs and clockwork can be accurate to seconds a day, then this is a nice watch to place in your collection, or as a first watch. The accuracy of mine on a timegrapher seemed to steady at a few seconds + per day, but in reality, on the wrist I will be happy if I am within +8-10 seconds per day. I will feed back how good it is when worn. It's important to remember that these watches will never be anywhere near as accurate as their much cheaper quartz brothers. By cheaper I mean the quartz movements can be a few pounds whereas the mechanical movements cost much more and they have something a quartz movement can never have....soul. I see it's gone back up to £92.51, still good value, but perhaps again they will drop in price on a deal and if you see a 9094 pro diver automatic for under £80, jump on it. Try and make sure it's fulfilled by amazon and not an import, that way you will have a European warranty. Update: Been wearing the watch for a few days now and the accuracy on the wrist is amazing, someone in the factory obviously set this movement up right and assembled it carefully. The accuracy over 48 hours is incredible, it has gained just 3 seconds in 2 days. Less than 2 seconds per day...this is unbelievably good for an automatic movement of this calibre. Just a note on the link pins, either have the proper tools, or take it to a jeweller to get the bracelet adjusted. One of my link pins was very stiff and without the proper tools would either have been impossible to extract or you might have damaged the bracelet. All the other pins were normal. I have read you can get the odd tight pin. Sized and on the wrist it looks great though. I just wish Invicta did the same watch with sapphire crystal. Update, the watch has been worn since 8 August 19 when I received it. The accuracy has settled down to just under -2 seconds a day in the last few weeks and since the 8th of august to today 27th August has lost only 10 seconds in that time....incredible for 19 days. I'm sure it can't last, but so far it's the most accurate mechanical watch I own and the cheapest watch I own (it was just for fun). I've since decided I will try and respect it a little as it's such an accurate timekeeper....a most unexpected purchase.

If you are researching automatic watches in this price range you will no doubt have an Invicta Pro Diver on your shortlist. If not, then you should consider it. My parcel arrived in good order within 24 hrs on express delivery. Inside a cardboard liner was an impressive if bright, yellow invicta trademark box in leatherette. The watch was well protected in a clear bag and secured in foam. A Yellow pastic price tag showed an alleged RRP of 395 US Dollars. Unusually the strap was protected by very tough shrink wrap which took some time to remove...but meant the watch was very well protected...a very good sign. It was also set to the correct time and day and must have been given a wind which was very good. Fit & finish is flawless...I have checked it thoroughly with a magnifying glass. The cyclops magnifier and date readout are perfectly aligned, as are all the face markings. The sweep hand even has a little set of invicta wings on the short end which is a nice touch. A nice glass back shows the movement. The gold plating on the bracelet and bezel is excellent quality deep and lustrous...the blue finish is bright and lovely to look at. The gold plating on the front of the strap links does not extend to their backs, but the inside of the strap is not visible anyway when worn. The colour combination certainly has visual impact..I wanted a watch that stood out from my otherwise understated collection...and this sure does..I love it. I was suprised that the watch was not larger. The case is around 38mm in diameter. I still had to get 3 links removed by a local jeweler, but there is about 1.5cms of adjustment on the clasp that you could do yourself with a pin and a bit of patience. It actually looks perfectly proportioned now on my weedy wrist..but I reckon those with a larger wrist might want to look at the Grand Diver model. Invicta have a good website which is worth checking, as they have a series of templates for various sized cases which you can print out and cut out to see how it would look on your wrist. I was torn between the Invicta and an Orient Mako but it really came down to price. The Orients have great reviews but less of them. Invictas have loads of reviews so the odd bad one did not worry me...fortunately, as I am very pleased with my purchase. I was never going to spend out on a Rolex. This does not pretend to pass itself off as one since it carries the Invicta name prominently and proudly on the face, in large engraved font on the side of the case, on the clasp and on the inside of the strap links. For less than £70 I think it offers very good value as it looks like it should cost ten times that price, even on close inspection. I realy don't know how Invicta can produce such a product for so little money, unless every other manufacturer has actually been taking the mickey for years. Only had it for three days, and it has gained just over 40 seconds which seems about right. My other automatic watch ran fast initially when new then settled into losing between 3 and 10 seconds per day. This watch has an NH35A SII movement which is a newish 24 Jewel mechanism, manufactured by Seiko in Japan, wheras most of the info I found on this model indicated it would have a Japanese Citizen built 21 Jewel Miyota movement. I am not sure if this is a better movement than expected, but it is a "hacking" movement which means that if you pull the crown out to set the time, the second sweep hand is held locked until you push it back in...this helps you to set the time accurately by a time signal. The crown also screws down tigtly to maintain the claimed 200m water resistant integrity, which I am sure it could as the build quality seems so good. I will update this review later with observations on its accuracy etc, but if it stays accurate I will definately be looking at other styles in the Invicta range. UPDATE: Had the watch for a while now and I cannot stress how pleased I am with it. It has settled to within a range of losing 10-12 seconds a week which I think is remarkable. It will keep going for well over a day and a half off of my wrist, and I have adopted the "Tic-tac" shake of the wrist every now and then to ensure the auto mechanism keeps the watch wound. Whatever you might think of the Invicta brand, this particular model is tough little watch and is a superb product for the money.

I had the stainless coin edge bezel version of this a few years ago. I recall it taking 3 or 4 attempts to get one that was satisfactory but in the end it was decent enough but I sold it on. So fast forward a few years and I'm back but this time it's in gold. If I'm honest this was bought on impulse and purely as a bit of fun as I have quite a few other "proper" watches to choose from as daily drivers. However, to give this watch some credit it's actually not half bad. There are many Chinese brands that offer superior specs to this watch these days. I've had a few in the past and with the exception of San Martin and Sugess I've always found them compromised in some areas. Invicta have been honing their craft with these pro-divers for years now so by now they know what they are doing and you almost know what to expect. This one arrived pretty much flawless so I'm wondering have they upped their levels of QC. The bezel has a very good action and lines up almost perfectly with zero bounce or back play. Cyclops is also applied straight which is one of the issues I had previously. The Seiko nh35 appears to be running well and keeping good time and everything operates smoothly including the crown which is better then some of my more expensive pieces. The dial and handset look great and match the rest of the watch perfectly although the lume is not that great. Apparently these are plated in actual gold, either 18k or 23k depending what you read. It's done to an extremely high standard and there's no missed areas anywhere at all, the whole effect is blingy yet classy at the same time. I remember gold tone watches from the 70s and they used to wear off badly within a couple of months but YouTube reviews suggest that these hold up very well even with rough treatment. The only real issue I had was with the bracelet which is often a criticism. There were a couple of links on one side that were quite stiff and getting the push pins out was a real challenge. I have a feeling these issues were caused by the thick plating which I assume is done while the bracelets are already assembled. I managed to delete the stiff links so all good now. So to sum up, this a surprisingly nice looking watch thats well finished and put together. It's a bit flashy and I may well never wear it outside the house but as a bit of watch fun it's hard to beat and I may be back for more.

Ótima construção e acabamento, além de possuir uma ótima máquina automática.

This is my second invicta watch. It's another amazing timepiece from invicta. Plating is good looks like solid gold. Just make sure you wash the watch b4 you keep it and thats how ur plating will remain new always

Puedo recomendar ampliamente este reloj invicta, es un diver profesional, automático con maquinaría Seiko y con una excelente acabado. A continuación describiré los pros y contras que pude identificar después de unas semanas de uso: Pros: Tiene unos acabados excelentes, y hablo en general. Es más bonito en físico, ya que solo de esta manera puedes apreciar bien los colores. Tiene una excelente máquina Seiko que cuenta con parada de segundero y cuerda manual. Cuenta con ventana de exhibición para poder ver el corazón del reloj. El extensible es excelente. Tiene corona y tapa trasera roscables. Tiene ajuste rápido de fecha. Contras: Si no lo usas al menos cada dos días tendrás que acomodar la hora y fecha. El bisel es un poco duro, se puede utilizar sin problemas pero no se compara al de un Casio Marlin. El broche es un poco difícil de abrir ya que es de presión. En conclusión recomiendo totalmente este reloj, por el precio no encontrarás algo que se le compare, recomiendo comprarlo cuando el precio ronde los 2,300 pero creo que incluso por 2,800 vale la pena. Nota: si lo que buscas es solo un diver aunque no tenga bisel Pepsi, hay opciones de invicta más económicas con la misma calidad.

I purchased this watch about three weeks ago and absolutely love it. There is nothing not to like about this watch. The packaging is nice and acceptable and doesn't look bad or cheap. The watch itself is beautiful. I was really taken by its solid look and feel. This watch is hand wound which is a big plus compared to most other automatic watches out there double or sometimes triple the price. The watch measures 40 mm across the dial( without the crown) The crown is a push-down which ensure its water resistance. The bezel on this watch is unidirectional and a little hard to turn and needs some getting used to. So far the time loss on this watch has been 4 - 5 seconds per day which is phenomenal. This is what one would expect from Rolex Submariner. I highly recommend this watch.

I like the way it feels and it's beautiful in your wrist..just like my Rolex watches.
