I happen to own a rare Swiss-Made Invicta Pro Diver, and so far it's lasted for years now and that's all I need. Honestly, Invicta - a brand that never gets the full credit they deserve.

I never understood all the hate for Invicta. Sure, their markups are questionable, but you still get a great quality watch for your money. Plus, they look amazing.
@krasnaludek2982 жыл бұрын
The hate might be confused with dislike. The brand is absolute junk in terms of their QC & movements. Therefore, I won’t buy their crap at any price - life is short & I’d rather have a Casio if I’m going cheap. That’s my dislike with Invicta, but certainly don’t hate the brand.

You cannot go wrong with an invicta! They are great afforable watches. I wear them as my daily wear along with eco drives, bulovas, and movados! If you dont have an invicta BUY one! Or maybe 2 🙌

Thanks for the video. I do not mind Invicta. All watch companies make an outrageous watch version (Rolex has a bejewelled version) ...Yes, Invicta seems to make a few more (A LOT MORE!!!!!) I have a Grand Diver, a Pro Diver and a 1953 Batman. Great watches for the money. All pay homage to Rolex (photocopy) But, they do not pretend to be anything other than an Invicta. Long live Invicta!!!!!

I have a simple solution..I buy what i want, when I want, how I want, and it's my money. I do not care as a grown man what anyone has to say negative about anything, about gossip, nor about his preferences which models he buys. Now if someone has practical knowledge, facts , and experience with a watch, it's worth my time to listen. When a man compares a Rolex and Invicta or a Chrysler 300/Bentley ,I already know he is dumber than a bag of rocks. Just about every brand makes big watches, flashy watches, smaller watches, and offers different price ranges/movements. I also know that Invicta users are way more accepting, friendly, and having more fun, as a community. I think a man has to be mentally ill to spew hatred and vitriol online about a damn watch, and I have experienced them having NOTHING to say when checked.There is no logical reason not to have Invicta, Rolex, Hamilton, Omega, Casio, Tissot, and it's a MYTH that other watches are heavily discounted from their MSRP. Next,if we are going to be technical about pricing then how come Jordans are sold at $300+ and made for less than $30- 50???We all have access to specs, we have warranties and if we do not like something, we can send it back and not buy it again. I have a Venom, I paid MY money for it,and unlike the LIES told,it is not too heavy, not unbalanced, and it's my business. When someone is online yapping I laugh because I know for SURE they do not walk up to people and talk their bullshi-----.

Preach it brother. I am a Invicta fan boy. It’s the best watch brand for the money hands down. Everyone likes to talk about their gaudy stuff and crazy MSRPs. Throw that stuff out and look at their collections and they have some great looking/ performing watches. They are a wildly successful company too contrary to the haters saying “everyone hates Invicta.” That’s just bullshit. I get compliments constantly on my Invictas. You hit the nail on the head. Grown azz men fighting over watch brands is puerile. You do you and I’ll do me.

For those of us who like Invicta, we know that the MSRP isn't the real price...why you ask? Well, because we understand the game! I don't even look at the MSRP....because I understand the game. Even on SHOPHQ...the "Host" are always telling you what the discount is during their sales pitch! One thing I know, you have to be patient. Don't pay the price the very first time you see it on air, you can get it quite a bit cheaper when you wait! I have waited for months for a watch's price to drop at least $100 or more before I buy the watch! If it never does...I do without! Oh....I wear the larger watches, only because at 6'6" and 340 lbs, I have a huge wrist...a fraction under 9"... Or 23 cm. ( ex- Offensive Lineman many decades ago. Severe leg injury ended my days of playing ) A 40 mm watch looks like child's watch on my huge wrist! Which is why my 47 mm Grand Diver is my watch of choice. I don't think I have paid over $125 for any of them! It always depends on what you like..no one else!

What a lot of people don't realise is that the Invicta Grand Diver (although very big) is a completely different watch from the Pro Diver. It's rated to 300m and doesn't just look like a Rolex. My Grand Diver (#3049) has hands that are unique to Grand Divers and a Planet Ocean-style scalloped bezel. It also has extra decorations on it and solid end links. I absolutely love it. It still looks and runs like the day it arrived back in 2012.

Even if it says 100m if the crown keeps turning its just water resistant and when they say 100m thats for swimming in a straight line above the water in a 300ft straight line not diving.

Invicta makes fashion watches at best, and there is obviously a market for them because people are buying them for whatever reason. For me their watches are ridiculously large and designs are outlandish, therefore i would never buy one. But I can’t hate on them entirely because they own Glycine and have financially kept the brand alive. Glycine is Swiss brand with over 100 years of history that I highly respect. They make great tool watches with the Airman and Combat sub lines and are highly underrated.
