1.0 out of 5 stars Very large, easy to read - Update: broke after 2 months!, September 19, 2011

(What's this?)

This watch comes in a very nice bright yellow leather or leather-like presentation case so the initial impression is great. The watch face itself is very large which seems to be the style. I like that it is easy to read the time although the three smaller dials are less easy to decipher and the date is also very small indeed. In appearance, it looks just like in the picture except somehow better. It has a look and feel of high quality. The timer is easy to use - I was able to set and pause and restart it without reading the instructions.

Update 11/13 - After only two months, the pointer broke off the timer and is now floating around the face of the watch under the crystal. The timer was used once daily. The watch was not dropped nor treated roughly. The watch itself continues to tell time correctly.

4.0 out of 5 stars Compare Invicta Analog watches 1430 to 0764, September 21, 2011

This is a review of the Invicta Men's 1430 Chronograph Black Dial Leather Watch (Black).
I will be comparing it to the Invicta Men's 0764 II Collection Black Dial Black Leather Watch (Stainless
steel).

Both watches are Invicta analog with leather bands.

Currently the 1430 is listed as unavailable but the 0764 is available to buy and is similar in many ways.

For both watches:
1. The dial is big and easy to read even without glasses
2. The luminescence on the hands stays bright enough to see for about 90 minutes
3. Because the watches are so large they occasionally get in the way during a task like cooking but overall it is very comfortable to wear.
4. I note almost every Invicta review I have read, no matter what the watch, has mentioned keeping good time but mine gained over a minute in the space of two weeks.
5. Very durable. My watch gets banged around all the time and seems no worse for the wear.
6. Both are sold for under $100 and both original price tags are $595.00
7. Despite the fact that they are both big watches, they are not too big. It's very wearable and gets lots of compliments.
What is different:
1. Aesthetically, I definitely like the look of the 0764 better. The 1430 looks cheaper and in the wrong light it almost looks plastic like. The leather bands on both are rugged, nice looking and comfortable.
2. The 1430 has a stop watch that counts second to second on a manual dial.
3. The 1430 shows the calendar date in a little window. On the 0764 the date is on a manual dial and hard to see.
4. The 1430 is 2mm smaller than the 0764 but you can notice that difference. I think a woman could definitely pull off the 1430.

3.0 out of 5 stars A bit clunky, October 27, 2011

This review is from: Invicta Men's 1430 II Collection Chronograph Black Dial Leather Watch (Watch)

(What's this?)

I wanted to like this watch, but it feels clunky on the wrist: the watch itself is heavy and the band thick and inflexible. It's true that the large numbers are very readable but the trade-off is the size of the watch itself. The watch, frankly, looks a bit tacky compared to better chronograph watches. I find it hard to believe that the retail price was $595.
