Yeah Homes dont wear that in the hood😂. Funny review. Beautiful watch I like it in tangerine. The orange and blue dial pops like a mutha fukka. Lucky im 6'2" and bodybuilding and jiu-jitsu are my hobbies. TY

Respectfully, a "major problem" is a tangible and objective flaw, not something you don't like subjectively. The HC Gmt of course has some elements that can be improved (like all watches), the bezel action could be better (isn't that true also for the Seamaster 300?) , the wearability is very good, but the lugs could be a tad more curved. Other than that, we can argue that it should be COSC just like the Zulu (even if mine has been running as COSC for weeks), that it could have screws in the bracelet instead of pins and maybe bring out the usual 21mm/19mm lug width critique, even though now there are plenty of options for uneven widths. I found the old crown guards very uncomfortable and ugly, as I found the numerals design unappealing and very 90's. Does the HC Gmt draw from other brands here and there? Yes, but it's far from a homage, it's simply a more standard and broad appealing design.

Just buy it if you like it, stop thinking about being special or not, special for who?? If it is special for you then is good enough, I just got my first Panerai after buying a ton of Rolex, Cartier and omega and I can tell you that it excites me way more than the rest of my collection which includes 45k USD watches, PAM00915 for anyone that is looking for a first Panerai, crown guard, 300m water resistant, hand wound with 8 days of power reserve and a sandwich dial, everything that a Panerai needs.

I’ve had this watch for about 3 years and it’s amazing absolutely love it. It have be dressed up and dressed down.

I have the new version of this, the PAM 00915 and I am loving it, I have 6 Rolex, 1 Cartier and this panerai, it’s so refreshing to wear something other than Rolex, it also helps that I am muscular with big wrists and arms so it suits me perfectly.

Awesome review, Roman! Well done! The Metris is on my list, for sure! Having recently purchased an Alpina Regulator, it probably won't be until 2025, however.

i agree it does not look good on that leather strap you got there, it´s too shiny/dressy......but it does look badass on a dark brown vintage distressed leather strap

I realy like your video. 2 months ago I bought a Meistersinger Perigraph, and I have thought about how to describe my watch to my friends. I might use some parts of your review to tell them. I have searched for 1 year for a nice watch and came across Meistersinger. The passion you have in your review about the bronze watch is exactly how I have experienced this watch in the last 2 months. Also their service is excellent. I had some questions and some difficulties to get my watch to my likings, but they did everything to make me happy...!!!

I was immediately gripped on this as soon as i saw it. Watch out for the 38mm or 39mm as it's not as good looking as this larger one - the dial and hands are superior on this one

Love two tone. Just bought it with diamonds and waiting for it to be delivered

I have this in blue and wear it very often.

fire!!

Ferro Watches does the same 1 hand thing with the Distinct watch, I've got the Distinct 3. Its very cool.

Great video Roman. I’m glad you covered this watch. I have been intrigued by this brand for while. I think their watches are very unique but haven’t seen someone cover them before. 2500 certainly isn’t cheap but for that price it definitely has to be one of the most unique and outside of the box watches someone could add to their collection. Definitely a watch geek watch. Love the strap, dial, bronze combo just the whole package. Great insight and opinions on this one ☝️

I agree with you that this watch and the brand in general has a very interesting approach for time telling, that's original and unique. Its unfortunate that they dont get enough media coverage.

Very nice analysis, Roman

Good video bro!

Damn this watch is cool!!

Good video 👍 Thanks Roman 👏

Good video

Excellent video!

Great video!

Great video buddy!

New crown guards are better tho

114060 it a true classic pure class, I have one in my collection 🔥

I am a proud owner of an Invicta Pro Diver (model 8926OB) for about four days now. I was blown away by how good it is, and I still am. To all of you Invicta haters out there, give the Pro Diver a chance. I mean, you get a freakin' NH35A automatic movement from Seiko, for God's sake *UPDATE:* I've had my Invicta Pro Diver model 8926OB for almost a month and it's still ticking. I don't think you'll be able to find another reliable high quality automatic watch for under 100 USD in the market.

AMEN!!!! This was an incredible review and spot on. Thank you, thank you, thank you for setting the record straight!!!! Loved this video. Others need to take notice... Preach, preach... teach!

It's my most accurate watch and I agree about the smoothness of the crown.

I bet the guy who made that comment pees sitting down.

You do realize this is a fake watch right?

Did you buy it from an AD? If you did, how long did you have to wait? Thank you.

I got the Cookie Monster one 😂. If I find the hulk and the Starbucks colors, I’m selling them 😂, Literally can’t find those colors anywhere no more.???!!!! Pro diver automatic. Swiss moment 💯

Its not tudor if its not their movement..

I've had the the two tone blue dial for about two years and I love it. My most worn watch for sure.

Good to see you on KZbin Roman! congratulations on the new piece, we'eve come a long way since the HR days.

Very good work Roman...keep it up. And dont watch Nico..i think he is nothing but an absolute idiot 😂.

Welcome bro. That Nico take on people who own subs triggered me so bad that I had to make a KZbin video about it last year lol. Congrats on the purchase.

Thanks!

Always glad to see a new video from you!! 💯❤️

Always good information from your videos about watches. Thanks 👍

I had one and loved the look and feel. Lots of compliments too. It lost about 40 seconds a day and eventually quit all together after about 2 years. It was the Miyota movement. I guess I will try one more time with the Seiko movement. I hate using my phone as a watch.

The only thing I don't like about the Invicta Pro Diver is the "flame fusion" crystal. China is cranking out watches with Seiko NH35s and sapphire crystals for <$100 now.

What a crap video. Another immigrant in Canada yapping. Go back to your country and yap.

My ten year old Pro Diver was beginning to run slow, around a five minutes a week. Not worth servicing it, so I bought a new one this week for £70 GBP. Sold my old one on EBay for £30. Cost of ownership for ten years, £4 per year. Just had my vintage Omega Seamaster serviced. Cost £500. For the money there is nothing to touch Invicta. I have Omega, Longines, Ebel, Baumé and Mercier, and Seiko watches. What do I wear most days? Invicta. Rolex are great, but who wants to get mugged. No one ever got mugged for their Invicta!

Bro, it’s called the American Classic. Mentionable especially when talking color scheme.

The Submariner itself is an homage, inspired by the Fifty Fathoms! People clearly hate Pro divers because of the price… it gets you 50% to a Submariner for 1% of the price, and they’re mainstream. There are niche brands like Steeldive that will get you 90% to a Rolex (with sapphire crystal, solid end links, Super Luminova, ceramic bezel, and 300m water resist) for 1% of the price, I’d hate to imagine what the haters think about that😂

Can you quality check my royal oak?

Agree

People, generally, would dislike the Invicta Pro Diver far less if the manufacturer’s name wasn’t blazoned along the side of the case.

Very nice, thinking of getting a black one too with metal strap
