Amazon.com Product Description

Be prepared for a night out on the town or a day's diving the reefs with Invicta's stylish Ocean Ghost II precise, Swiss-made diving watch (model 2301) with automatic movement, which provides water resistance up to 200 meters (660 feet). It features a round, shock-resistant silver stainless steel case with embossed unidirectional rotating bezel. The blue dial background is accented by silver triangular dial markers and Tritnite luminous hands (with seconds hand). The silver stainless steel bracelet band mixes brushed and polished pieces. Other features include an antireflective mineral crystal with magnifier, Cabochon crown, see-through caseback, and date function at 3 o'clock.

Pro Diver Collection

Plunge into any horizon using the steadfast guidance of the Invicta Pro Diver. Stylishly classic, internal workings are forged with variations of either Swiss chronograph or 21-jewel automatic movements and willingly navigate in depths up to 300 meters. Built with confident prowess, the fortitude with which these timepieces function makes the Pro Diver the quintessential in performance.

Screw Down Crowns: Many Invicta watches are equipped with a screw down crown to help prevent water infiltration. This is most common on our Diver models. In order to adjust the date and/or time on such a watch, you must first unscrew the crown before you can gently pull it out to its first or second click stop position. To do this, simply rotate the crown counterclockwise until it springs open. When you have finished setting the watch, the crown must then be pushed in and screwed back in tightly. Not doing so will cancel the water resistance of the watch and will void all warranties from the manufacturer. Overall, this process should not require a lot of effort or force.

Automatic Watches

Automatic watches do not operate on batteries. Automatic watches are made up of about 130 or more parts that work together to tell time. Automatic movements mark the passage of time by a series of gear mechanisms, and are wound by the movement of your wrist as you wear it. The gear train then transmits the power to the escapement, which distributes the impulses, turning the balance wheel. The balance wheel is the time regulating organ of a mechanical watch, which vibrates on a spiral hairspring. Lengthening or shortening the balance spring makes the balance wheel go faster or slower to advance or retard the watch. The travel of the balance wheel from one extreme to the other and back again is called oscillation. Lastly, automatic movements come in different types, including movements that are Swiss-made, Japanese-made, and more.

Also referred to as self-winding, watches with automatic movements utilize kinetic energy, the swinging of your arm, to provide energy to an oscillating rotor to keep the watch ticking. They're considered more satisfying to watch collectors (horologists) because of the engineering artistry that goes into the hundreds of parts that make up the movement. If you do not wear an automatic watch consistently (for about 8 to 12 hours a day), you can keep the watch powered with a watch winder (a great gift for collectors).

5.0 out of 5 stars Husband loves it!!, January 4, 2006

This review is from: Invicta Men's 2301 Pro Diver Collection Automatic Watch (Watch)

My husband is very picky. He LOVES this watch. He has gone through a lot of them and loves that it's dressy yet casual and can wear it anywhere. He loves that it's a substantial weight and the bracelet came extra long. He's 6'2 and "large boned". Had a watch repair shop take a couple links out for only $5. Great investment.

This review is from: Invicta Men's 2301 Pro Diver Collection Automatic Watch (Watch)

This watch is HUGE...looks great, not real fancy, but well built and solid. Uses the 21 jewell miyota japanese movement so should be more than reliable. Invicta makes a good product for the money!

4.0 out of 5 stars Looks better in real than photos, September 18, 2008

This review is from: Invicta Men's 2301 Pro Diver Collection Automatic Watch (Watch)

I had this watch for a while. I think photos don't look so good as the watch in real. It's also bigger than it looks. Solid, stainless steel, not heavy. The embossed numbers in the dial look strong.
Some friends found it very nice. Would like to see it with saphire crystal for a complete 5 star ranking. Price is great, very cheap for what you get.
