I've been buying/collecting Invicta watches in the Sub Mariner grouping for the last ten yrs. and love almost all of them. They all work just great and when I wore my first one to a meeting, a guy stopped me and wanted to trade several of his watches, for my "Rolex". I had no idea of the connection until that occurrence.

The only one I'm not too happy with is a larger size "gold" Sub Mariner. A little ostentatious for me l. Also, BTW... I've amassed a collection of about 20 different Pro Divers. And nice to find out the movements are Seiko's.

They do a upgraded version too, I have it.. the 9937ob pro-diver, it's got swiss auto Sellita SW200-1 movement, upgraded bracelet with solid links and milled clasp, a thinner depth case and upgraded crystal..@ $170 on Jomashop, a real step up from the standard but at a fantastic price, if You ever think of replacing/fixing/upgrading yours I'd definitely check it out. oh..forgot to say.. they only do them in black on black (dial/bezel).. but I bought a Ceramic 'Batman' bezel insert for a bit more kick.

These days mass production is so cheap that Invicta actually makes money by selling these pieces at $75 )

@@Onemore59 you want a Rolex for 100 bucks ?

@@Onemore59 When I said the watch would run slow or run fast, I think you got the mistaken idea of a wildly out of sync time piece. I use a Seiko quartz wall clock clock to reset my Invicta wrist watch. The difference can be 30 secs up or down over a period of weeks and after 6 years that's not bad. This watch has become part of my arm almost like a wedding or signet ring. My wife was given a Rolex 'perpetual' watch by a famous corporation for exceeding her sales goal. She made them a ton of money. The watch? It quit in less than two years, this after retailing for over $8k and now hides amongst important papers and jewelry in the safe.

You should probably service it. Even though it works amazing, the gears and cogs most likely need servicing and they will wear out faster if you don't.

@@HotCacahuete my band hasn’t broken. And I’m only speaking from my experience with the brand. I’m guessing yours is less favorable.

If you ever looked closely into a movement of say a rolex or Omega , you`d know where that price difference comes from. Seiko has 3 ranges of watches as well.

@@KpaBaPa notice that I didn’t say Rolex, omega, or Tudor. I own a Tudor BB58. I understand the difference. Fact is, Seiko charges over 5 times the price of one of these for a watch with the same movement. Check the presage cocktail time. Movement is basically the same as the NH.

@@andrewe.8321 I’ve owned a Rolex and own several Grand Seiko. Rolex is way over priced for what you get compared to the GS. This watch carries a Seiko movement that was probably built in Thailand. That doesn’t mean it’s bad, but Japanese labour costs more than Thai labour. Everything else is stamped out in China hence the price.

There's been a fair number of complaints about the waterproofing so that needs to reviewed/testing.

I noticed your "budget" comment, so I wanted to tell you, you're not missing all that much with the genuine article. I had this Invicta watch in two-tone (9028) and loved it. Then, I went to the Bahamas and saw the two-tone 18K/SS Rolex Submariner it replicates for $5,000 (it's $30,000 now). They were $6,000 in the US, but also tax. Paying no mind to multiple pina coladas, it was an enormous expense, but my VISA allowed me to do it (along with the rum), so I did. It came with a beautiful wood box I had to leave behind, in order not to have to deal with duty. If you're wearing it, they can't say you got it there if you don't have the box (and the jeweler would not ship it). The thing of a lifetime was now on my wrist. I appreciated it all the time, I even slept with it on, but that's not unusual for me not to take my watch off; they're like rings to me; I keep them on in bed, at the gym, during sex, showering, bike rides, etc.) . It wasn't all that long that kept looking at it and admiring it, until I realized why I was studying it so intensely. I discovered I had loved the anticipation of owning it, more than actually owning it. It was like wanting to see a movie, having that anticipation, then when you've seen it, it's over. It was a great movie; do I want to see it again? It was the most beautiful watch I owned. I had loved it for years before, and only dreamed of owning one. My dream came true, but it changed the moment it wasn't a dream anymore, but it took me a little while to figure it out. I ended up selling the watch a couple years later, and at a loss at that. I didn't know the market, but it doesn't matter now. I do regret selling it, but I did need the money at that time. I do however remember that experience and it has served me well. Now those things I want really bad aren't things I want so bad after all. I now know the difference in anticipation of having something, and then actually having it. I lost money on that watch, but the experience was extremely valuable. I don't go around anymore thinking, "I wish I had one of those". Things I once thought were impressive, really aren't. I have $113 to go before my car is paid for (this month!). It looks and drives great for a 6 year old car; I bought it new. I could have bought a new car a long time ago, but guess what I learned? A new car would do nothing for me. It would drive the same and get me to the same places. There's nothing wrong with the one I have and I've just given myself a $325 a month raise by not buying a new one! I couldn't justify that Rolex and I can't justify a new car. I'm back to wearing my Invicta watches and I love them now like I used to. Oh sure, I look down and miss the Rolex crown on the face sometimes, but I smile inside, because of the lesson I learned. It's not fun not to want something, not to wish for or anticipate, but be realistic about those feelings, why you feel that way and how you will feel when your wish comes true. Rolex is beautiful, don't get me wrong. I'm simply not in the income bracket not to be bothered by the cost. There's also no reason for a redneck in Florida to be walking around with a Rolex anyhow. The newness of such a purchase comes and goes very quickly, no matter what it is really. Coming from someone who knows, you're really not missing anything except a huge monthly bill years into the future. I actually wanted a motorcycle and getting one of those and wearing an Invicta is a lot more practical.

@floridaredneck congrats on finishing off your car payments. That must be a relief finally 😀 oh I'm not one for fancy for fancy sake, but something about the Rolex and Cadillac I just adore. My grandfather came to Canada with nothing but the clothes on his back and was able to obtain all the status quo symbols of success like the Cadillac and Rolex and other things of that nature by working hard and paying his dues so I want to live up to that. Crazy I know, but it's what I like. I have a few invicta watches, and they're all fantastic. However, I'm looking to sell a couple of them just so I can get some smaller sized watches. Honestly, the name of the watch shouldn't matter as long as you like it, I like Mr. Jones watches because they have unique qualities like scenery that moves in the watch face, and pieces of the scene are the hands of the watch, and they are under 1000$ for the top model. I do understand the falsehoods of therapy that shopping gives you it's almost worse than drugs, and regardless of what you spend and how awesome the things you bought are, it literally fades in a moments notice. What's the best memory of your current car?

CHINESE SO SMART MOVEMENT LIKE $3 ON EBAY LOL

@@eagles4757 the troll strikes again

100% agree! JSG

It's not common to find an Invicta with an ETA movement, at least not in a mechanical timepiece. Most of the Swiss made Invicta watches that are mechanical have a Sellita SW200-1 movement, which is basically a clone of an ETA 2824-2. Only few Invicta models have an ETA movement, usually in a quartz or the rare ETA 7750. Since ETA now only makes movements for specific brands, the Swiss made Invicta watches use movements made by Sellita

I just wanted to do a quick update. Took my watch to the Jewelry store today and they resized it, fits perfect now. The watch is performing better than I figured it would, I set it perfectly 48 hours ago and it is losing 5 seconds a day. I'm impressed.

Buy a Bostok for the same money- much better made and after you strip it down and reassemble it you'll actually have something worth keeping.

@@stupitdog9686 Actually no.

Don't you love it when someone proves your point?

@@eagles4757 anyone who knows what a Submariner looks will very much think at first glance it might be one.

I own two myself and I my opinion the Pro Diver series offers hands down most bang for your buck in the affordable price category. Applied indices, automatic movement that can be regulated to within COSC specs, 200m diver, quickset day-date, hacking, handwinding and if you get the blue dial version you'll also get a sunburst dial and all that for 60 to 70 bucks! Unbeatable!

Chinese manufacturing has come a long was over the last 20 years! its definitely not what it used to be and has come on leaps and bounds, it still unfortunately has a bad stigma, but my guess is not for too much longer. JSG

Pagani Design is the best Chinese brand for sure. The specs on Paganis are off the chart. These generic Seiko NH35 movements are really good. They can be regulated much better than the published accuracy specs. I got my NH35 to run +3 sec / day with a full manual wind or active daily wear with careful regulation. Perfect for me.

I own a few of invictas and get compliments as well, but recently bought a TechnoMarine from invicta and them things look fire too

I was actually really impressed with it. The only complaint I’d make is regarding the “Invicta” label milled into the side of the casing, but apart from that, it’s an absolute blinder of a watch. JSG

I think 1 ms BE is a bit high, but if it's keeping time well enough for you it doesn't actually matter. I recently regulated the NH35 in my Phoibos Leviathan, and the lever for correcting beat error is a tricky thing to interact with. You want to give it _tiny_ nudges, but it's easy to give it a big shove by accident. Also, the balance is right underneath and if you foul that you'll feel very bad. Anyhow, I absolutely agree the value proposition in these watches is really tough to beat. I don't know if I'd spend the time to service an NH35 even if I was capable of doing so (not yet!!). They're just so cheap, they last, and they're a perfect choice for watches like this. I recently bought a Zelos Hammerhead with an NH35, and I'm completely happy with it in that USD$350 diver as well. Enjoy your watch!

Completely agree with this 👌🏻
