I am not an Invicta fan, but there are a few hidden gems in their catalog that can be rather surprising. For example, the Model 23075 is an aircraft-style automatic (NH35A movement, I believe) that is great for me because it has a high-contrast, easy-to-read face and large hands and numerals that is great for older eyes, yet doesn't have so much gingerbread trim that it distracts from what it is supposed to do - indicate the time and date in a simple, clear manner. Yes, it is larger but that is actually good for visibility (especially with the flat-faced crystal) and the carbon-fiber background on the face does not distract from its functionality yet adds an interesting 3-D "pop" that makes you look twice at it. It wears well on my larger wrist and works well for me. Just my two cents worth!

My only experience with Invicta is my 9937OB with an SW200 movement. I’ve worn it for over 10 years and it’s been great.

Invicta does offer a really nice watch.The model “1953” pro diver in various colors.The nicest one I think comes in a black dial with a black and blue bezel.Some call it the Batman version.

Invicta owns glycine combat subs and they need to utilize it more! The combat subs are sized really well but could use new dial designs.

I would love to hear what you think of this watch also from INVICTA family. It's the Glycine Combat 6 Classic 36mm. It uses a Sellita movement and the price drop in the US has been crazy. They've been going for under $300 from MSRP of $1300. I think this is really worth doing a review on.

Some of Invicta's watches are so huge they could be considered to be a lethal weapon. The word 'gaudy' doesn't even begin to describe them. This one? Yeah, I like it. Thanks for the review, I enjoyed it.

It is a nice looking watch. I have several Invicta watches. I don't like the large ones they make but to each his own. Nobody is forcing anyone to buy an Invicta. Ppl can be so obsessed with such hatred for Invicta. Live and let buy.....! Nice video.

I don't like style of most Invicta watches, but I do have an 10+ year old Invicta multifunction 2876 blue dial, which I really enjoy. It's had a lot of wear and the "fusion" crystal still is scratch free. The blue dial changes to blue/purplish as the light angle changes, and looks good. So if you like it, why not?

I had to get one Invicta just to be part of the "Invicta squabble". I bought a skeleton dress watch with brown leather strap so it actually serves a role in my wardrobe and I'l be honest, is a nice watch. I was expecting a Chinese "Forsing" feel to it but there's none of that. I can actually ware it, my black strap dress watch is the Tissot Le Locle my father wore and my brown strap is this one nowadays.

My previous boss had a Sub mariner and I always loved that watch. So when he left the company I ended up getting a pro diver. Obviously couldn’t afford a Rolex sub mariner but loved the way it looked. Kinda look at it like the place holder for my Rolex one day. Here in South Africa as a comparison a New Submariner will cost the equivalent of $15k if you take into account the minimum wage here is $1.5 per hour you will understand how expensive it is here to own one relatively.

I’d actually consider it if it had perhaps the NH35 movement with a 6pm date cutout, I wouldn’t mind the bump in thickness that would inevitably bring to say you had an automatic.

Sadly it seems to have been discontinued, I can't find it anywhere, not even second hand. Some executive at Invicta must have realised to that their company was making a watch that wasn't a knock-off nor smelled like vomit and pulled the plug before destroying all remaining pieces.

Nice one Ben ! I am a fan of Invicta and have quite a number of them and i am the first to admit that they make some God awful looking oversized watches. But like you found they do make some very nice tasteful watches well built but at a modest price. A couple of years ago i was looking at Bronze watches but i could not afford or justify the purchase price of one until i stumbled upon the INVICTA BRONZE PRO DIVER 25642, yes the make a very good budget bronze dive watch. Solid as a rock with NH35 movement see through ca se back rock solid and for around £200. I now have 2 and they are some of the best pieces i own . Check them out great value great quality for the price.

That's from their Invicta "Vintage" line. I own one from that line with a champagne dial which is quite nice. Though it does have the etching on the side, I don't particularly mind it. I also own an aviator from them which riffs on a B type fleiger. It's not bad. Nothing to write home about. They both feature the same movement as the watch you showcase here, with the day and date in the same layout. Honestly, Invicta would do well to focus on these lines instead of the gargantuan monstrosities for which they are more better known.

That comes totally out of left field for Invicta. I associate rose gold watches with the fashion watch industry overall, but that one is actually very nice. I love the symmetry of the day and date windows.
