Japan-automatic movement
Mineral crystal
Case diameter: 40 mm
Stainless-steel case; Black dial; Date function
Water-resistant to 200 M (660 feet)

Classic styling and high performance add up to an outstanding sport watch for your land or sea adventures. This automatic watch, from Invicta's Pro Diver series, places a large round stainless steel case on a robust triple link steel bracelet. The black dial is designed for quick and easy read-off, even in low light conditions. It offers three-hand function with Tritnite-coated luminous hands and hour markers and a magnified date display at the three o'clock mark. The dial is capped with a resilient mineral crystal and framed by a black unidirectional rotating steel bezel with coin edge detailing. This watch is driven by Japanese automatic movement, which is visible through the see-through skeleton caseback. It is rated water resistant to a full 200 meters.

About Invicta
For well over a century-and-a-half, Invicta (the name is Latin for "invincible"), has been producing fine quality Swiss timepieces and making them available at a surprisingly affordable cost. The company traces its roots to the small Swiss village of La Chaux-de-Fonds where, in 1837, founder Raphael Picard began turning out modestly-priced pieces of exceptional quality, and found himself competing successfully with higher-priced Swiss watchmaking giants. Invicta's reputation grew steadily over the years. The company nearly faded from view in the early 1970s, when the new quartz watches were all the rage, but descendants of the Invicta family reestablished the brand in 1991, and its popularity among watch collectors flourished.

True to its roots, Invicta continues to create beautifully designed and expertly crafted watches, using Swiss-made movements and high-quality materials like anti-reflective sapphire crystals. Among Invicta's innovations are the first combination platinum and 18 karat gold watch ever produced and a limited edition Subaqua Noma watch featuring a genuine meteorite stone dial. With a diverse collection ranging from its elegant Vintage 1948 and Objet d'Art watches to its high-performance Pro Diver series, Invicta continues to prove its reputation as an invincible player among fine Swiss watchmakers.

Shiny!!

Ok Dudes and Dudesses. This watch is Cool for the price. Opened up the overly done and cheaply luxurious box and was immediately confronted with an
object that could compete with a pair of low end patent leather shoes in a pawn shop window. It absolutely "GLISTENED"!! Really though, it is a nice effort, solidly built and seems as accurate as you can expect with a mechanical watch. The date window protrudes above the surface of the crystal and is waiting for scratches. I have a large wrist and had to remove one link. No big deal. Use a safety pin and look at the arrows. My left arm will probably gain a little size after wearing this for a while - but the box is even heavier! Maybe I could use that for the other arm! Would I buy another?
Probably, for my Uncle Billy Bob down yonder. He could trade it for something else - like that '56 Studebaker he's lookin at.

Love it!

I bought this watch as a birthday gift for my husband last month. He has always loved the Rolex Submariner watch but since that's way over our budget, I selected this watch. Well, my husband LOVES his Invicta watch! He can't believe how closely it resembles the Rolex watch and it's been working great so far. He likes the automatic feature and he's been wearing it every day since getting it. Definitely a good watch for the money and I recommend it!

Great watch for the money

Very pleased with the watch. Quality appears to be good, the price was certainly right. If I had to 'complain' about one thing, it would be that it tends to run about one minute fast per day--but that seems pretty typical for these types of watch movements. Would definitely buy again.

Nice watch for the money

Very attractive watch - surprises are the weight (quite heavy) and the "automatic movement" feature - you MUST wear it every day - and even then, it occasionally has stopped (taken it off at night to sleep).

Fantastic Watch Value!

I have had my 8926OB for aprox. a week and I am extremely pleased with the watch. The looks and Quality are excellent,solid stainless steel case and band lugs,substantial weight and feel,mineral crystal and movement for about a hundred bucks it is a true bargain.

I've owned a Rolex silver&gold Datejust for 18 years and had it serviced once at about $200. and now it needs another service (quit working) at a cost of $250 to $400 dollars. to me this is ridiculous and I decided to try the Invicta and I am glad I did. Im not saying this is Rolex Quality but its closer than you would think and at a $5,ooo. dollars savings the Invicta makes a lot of sense, in fact I have ordered another model #3546 and I will probably purchase additional Invicta's in the future. And for all those people who said it did not keep good time ie: loses a couple a minutes a week etc. so did my Rolex, Its an automatic movement idiosyncrasy.

Two thumbs up for Invicta and Amazon.
