What is that smell????, February 9, 2012
This review is from: Invicta Men's 1906 Specialty Collection Swiss Quartz Watch (Watch)
This watch is what i"ve been looking for something different. The style and color caught my eye. The only draw back is that smell coming from the watch. I read the comments and it is true that smell is soooo bad that you really can not enjoy wearing the watch. Although I received alot of compliments on the it the smell is keeping me from wearing it. Can someone tell me how to get rid of that smell.

what a horrific smell!, January 31, 2012
This review is from: Invicta Men's 1906 Specialty Collection Swiss Quartz Watch (Watch)
Okay, something is terribly wrong. I read the other review about a "lemon pledge" smell. My package contents, watch box, and watch all have a terrible smell. Think "bubble gum", then turn up the volume to eleven.
This is not normal. Clearly something has happened to this stock (mold, maybe?), and someone has tried to fix it by bathing it in some industrial cleaner or AirWick or something like that. I have bought Invicta watches in the past -- in fact I have two others of this exact same watch box. They did not smell at all. It's not the plastic strap -- can't be unless it's made of Febreze!
I guess that's the reason for the sale price!
We typically get unscented dryer sheets, cat litter, etc, and this is exactly the kind of smell we are trying to avoid when we do, but much, much worse.
I am taking this out to the garage while I try to decide what to do with it.

Gorgeous!, December 21, 2011
This review is from: Invicta Men's 1906 Specialty Collection Swiss Quartz Watch (Watch)
The watch is absolutely gorgeous and it's exactly as pictured. I especially love the rubberized band; it's a nice change from the basic metal & leather. I wasn't sure just how large the face dial was as my son prefers the large size that covers the entire wrist, which this does. Whether you're a fan of Invicta or not, you won't be disappointed!
