Beautiful & Versatile Watch,
By S Powers (Pennsylvania (USA)) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Invicta Men's 5249S Pro Diver Stainless Steel Silver Dial Watch (Watch)
Just received this watch today. This is my second Invicta Pro Diver. I cannot believe the price for such a handsome watch. It's a Swiss quartz, not Japanese.
My other Invicta Pro Diver is a 40MM Swiss quartz, this new watch is a 45MM and it looks a bit large for my wrist. I will need to think about the size for a day or two before I get it sized but the styling is perfect for any occasion, formal to causal. If I decide not to keep it due to the size I will definitely gift this watch to someone. For now I would hate to let it go. If this watch was made in a 40MM I would be wearing it now with no reservations. The MSRP tag on the watch is listed as $325.00. I showed the tag to my sister who is not afraid to spend top dollar on jewelry and she actually believed that I paid around $325.00 for this watch. You need to get this one before they raise the price or it's gone.

Not a "Pro Diver" watch,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Invicta Men's 5249S Pro Diver Stainless Steel Silver Dial Watch (Watch)
I had previously owned the Invicta Pro Diver automatic watch and really loved it. Went surfing and swimming with it all the time and had no issues. Unfortunately the mineral crystal broke by freak accident. So, I went looking for another Invicta as I thought the quality was good.
Really like the looks of this watch, wasn't too heavy and the silver dial was nice to look at. One of my main reasons for buying this watch as I am into water sports and needed a diver watch that can handle submersion. Well, only wore this watch in the swimming pool and the dial fogged up (pool was maybe 8' deep!). They should remove the "Pro Diver" from the description as this is pretty misleading. Should just be sold as a basic water resistant watch. I am happy, though, that Amazon processed my refund quickly, now on to find a real diver's watch! If you like this watch it is nice, just don't wear it in the water!

Can't Keep Time,

This review is from: Invicta Men's 5249S Pro Diver Stainless Steel Silver Dial Watch (Watch)
The watch looks great, and it was a terrific price. Unfortunately, the watch can't keep time. The seconds hand periodically gets stuck. I checked with Invicta, and they said I have pay $28 for shipping and handling fees to get the watch fixed. That's more than half the price I paid for the watch. Thinking I'll use that money on a better quality watch.

I recieved the watch and found it to be very attractive. After having the watch for a day I found it would lose about 10 minutes per hour. Returned it for a refund.

LOVE this watch!,

Bought this watch for myself & am SO happy with it. I have been looking for an Invicta Watch for awhile & came across this deal & could not pass it up.
Amazing price for a GREAT watch. I am a petite girl but I really love larger mens watches - once it was sized to my wrist size it looks perfect!

Pro Diver by name but not by nature,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Invicta Men's 5249S Pro Diver Stainless Steel Silver Dial Watch (Watch)
I really like the look of Invicta watches and so bought this model about 18 months ago. It is a great looking watch and I have worn it when mountain biking, running, swimming and at work. The only problem with this watch is that it is not waterproof under pressure. I went snorkelling and dived down to around 4 metres and within an hour the inside of the watch face had a small ring of condensation. I must add that I had previously been swimming with the watch on several occassions without any problems. I suspect that if the watch was reissued with a screw in crown instead of a simple push in crown then water ingress may not be such a problem. Looks great on your wrist but don't dive with it. When I called up Amazon to tell them about the water ingress they gave me a full refund. I think it is best to remove the "Diver" reference to this watch.

Why diver watch bands are large,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Invicta Men's 5249S Pro Diver Stainless Steel Silver Dial Watch (Watch)
I do not intend to wear this watch for diving nor do I recommend that anyone attempt it. For those of you who wonder why the watchband is so large is because diver watches are designed to be worn over wet suit sleeves so the band has to be bigger than normal. The reason I do not recommend this watch for diving is because it does not have a screw down crown other than that it is authentic right down to the rotatable bezel used to time deep dives. I do, however, think the design makes a good fashion statement and after sizing mine to fit my wrist I wear it proudly. I guarantee an effective diver watch would cost much more than this.

Can't beat the price,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Invicta Men's 5249S Pro Diver Stainless Steel Silver Dial Watch (Watch)
Very nice time piece for the money. As noted, you have to take out quite a few links to get it to fit. In fact, I had to take out all 6. And Yes, it is possible to take them all out. Fit and finish is quite satisfactory for the money. If you are really picky, the band is a pressed steal type of band instead of a cast or forged or cut band. But again, for the money, you can't expect much better. Absolutely no one will notice unless they look very carefully at the watch in their hands. You can't go wrong buying this watch.

Beware, too good to be true!,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Invicta Men's 5249S Pro Diver Stainless Steel Silver Dial Watch (Watch)
Watch looks good, two months after purchase I gave my dog a bath and I figured this "divers" watch would be ok....wrong! It is now full of water vapor! I didnt even put it under water. Also the watch bracelet is very flimsy, every time I move my arm or wrist the bracelet rattles like a cheap toy. Also, the so called luminous numbers on the face and the watch hands lost their "glow in the dark" capability in about a month after use. I'll try my luck with the warranty dept. My advice: Stay away from this sorry item!
