Great looking, substantial, rock solid precision timepiece
wide price variations "cheapens" brand name
Posted Apr 20, 2005 - Watch looks as good in person as it does on the web. Model 8928A matches my school colors/college ring - a fine timepiece and a fine piece of jewelry. Watch band is as attractive as the watch. A great all around timepiece. Can be worn with a tux a well as a wetsuit. Perfect watch for all occasions. Timekeeping is good enough for an autowind. The Invicta 89xx series comes in a variety of colors. The Japanese autowind mechanism shows through the transparent backpiece - a nice touch. Invicta sells a similar style with a Swiss movement for a higher price - they are more attractively finished inside and out - but this watch is a steal for the price. Have read that the watch needs service at the 4 to 5 year mark - for the price buy another one! Prices for this watch are all over the place. There is as much as a 40+ dollar variation among web discounters - all who claim lowest prices. This tends to cheapen the product and brand name - which is trying to stake a claim as a quality entry level luxury item. Overall - this is a bargain in Rolex "submariner" clones. A quality timepiece one needs to make no excuses for. If you are a collector - the Invicta 89xx series is one you should own, wear and display.
