InvictaMen's 0420 Pro Diver Automatic Black Dial Titanium Watch

I had been looking for a titanium automatic divers watch for some time. As the owner of several Omega watches, naturally I looked at the Seamaster, but the price was a bit out of my reach. I happened upon this Invicta watch purely by chance during an Amazon search, and so I figured I'd take a chance on it. What the heck....with a Father's day discount code, it came to under $90! How could I lose?When it arrived it came well packaged in the usual Invicta yellow box. It's very much a copy of the Submariner, right down to the magnifier over the date. It's all titanium construction means that it is a VERY light watch. It's nearly as light as a similar sized resin case watch. The display back was a nice touch, and showed off the Seiko NH35A movement. After sizing the titanium bracelet, I began to use it as my daily wear watch.I realize the NH35 is no chronometer, but a check against an atomic clock showed a variance of only +2 seconds after 3 days of not so gentle wear. Very surprising.I did realize after a while that if I allowed it to become a bit run down, it began to lose time, but never more than a few seconds a day.All in all, it was an awesome value for the money. Yes I realize it's no Omega, nor did I expect it to be for the price.It's attractive, light on the wrist, comfortable to wear, durable (so far) and keeps very good time, and does it all for an affordable price.What more could you want?

This Invicta dive watch is just about as good as the Seiko dive watches I have that cost three or four times as much. It arrived in pristine condition. The lightweight titanium case and band feel and look great on my wrist. The watch is constructed with good attention to detail. With inexpensive watches, I can usually feel a lot of backlash (free play) when adjusting the time with the stem pulled out to the time-setting position. Not with this watch though, turning the stem is as precise and smooth as it should be. The crown is large and wide so turning it is easy on the fingertips. The crown screws smoothly onto the case because the threads are cut well. The Japanese movement inside hand winds, hacks (stops the watch from running to match time precisely), and keeps accurate time for a mechanical watch. Laser etching on the back looks good and is easy to read. The bezel was initially a little stiff to turn but now turns great after some use. This watch is a bargain for the cost, almost too good to be true.

Update 11/1/2021. It's 9 years now that I have had this Invite. i did order a new Titanium band from Invicta and that was $65. The watch itself is still going strong. The bezel is nearly flawless after all these years. This has been the most rugged and wonderful watch.Very light weight and does not feel cheap at all. So far it is keeping time to within a few seconds every third day. No problems with the bezel, turns just fine. Very happy with the price point and Invicta.Update - 12/23/14. I have had this watch for two years now. It still looks very good. There is not one scratch on the crystal. Not even a mark. I am very hard on my watches. I wear them until they are literally worn out. I wear them while doing things that are damaging to the watch face, bracelet and tend to get them very dirty too. This Invicta has held up better than other watches that I have destroyed in a two year period. Very happy with the product. I would recommend Invicta and would most certainly buy their watches again.Update - 1/3/17. I have had this watch for four years now. The outer rotating bezel numbers are starting wear off in the area that my sleeve touches the watch. The crystal watch face now has one very tiny scratch. Amazing that a non-sapphire watch face has held up this well. It still keeps very good time. Wear it every day and have yet to have to wind it manually, daily wear keeps it "wound". All in all a very good watch that I would not hesitate recommending. Bumped it to 5 stars too.Update - 2/19/18. Year five with this watch. Still going strong. A little more fading on the outer rotating bezel. Still NOT ONE scratch on the watch face. If this watch is still available I would not hesitate to order another.
