Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Elegance meets dependability and sport performance in Automatic Watch #9110 from the Invicta Men's Pro Diver Collection. This timepiece features a black dial with a combination of dot, stick, and triangular indices, a convenient date display at three o'clock, and a trio of luminous hands, along with small stick indices marking each minute on an outer dial. Also showcasing a stainless steel unidirectional bezel with a black finish and bold indicators, including Arabic numerals at the 20, 30, 40, and 50 minute marks, this watch employs an antireflective mineral crystal to protect its face, and it utilizes Japanese automatic movement for extreme precision. It is held in place by a sleek, black rubber band with a buckle clasp, and it is water resistant to 660 feet for true dive functionality.

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 don't expect a rolex, August 11, 2007

This review is from: Invicta Men's 9110 Pro Diver Collection Automatic Watch (Watch)

this is my second invicta automatic.
i got the almost-identical goldtone version, then got this for sports/outdoors stuff the other one was too 'nice' for.
comes as advertised, with signature leather yellow box. looks better on your wrist than in the ad. for around $100, plus a gift umbrella, it's an excellent deal. i'd recommend this as a gift or for personal use, and at this price you can buy two.

not as dressy as the stainless-steel versions due to rubber band, but still very sporty and masculine. the rubber band does have its advantages, though. it survived an outdoor music festival on the eel river and came back none the worse for wear. in fact, it still looked new even after several submergings, so i don't doubt you could dive with it. the luminous hands and bezel dot are a nice touch, but really need a lot of sunlight to charge for any significant length of time.

speaking of which, the timekeeping is very good for an automatic watch. it does tend to run a little fast but not by much. like all invicta automatics, it can be hacked, meaning you can reset the auto movement with a few turns of the crown. that's a big advantage over more expensive autos like the seiko, which can only be reset by shaking. that comes in handy if you don't want to wear it every day. otherwise, you might have to get a winder.

at this price, don't expect a rolex, but you do get rolex-type performance at a fraction of the cost. the old adage you get what you pay for isn't true in this case. with this one, you get more than you pay for. just don't tell anyone how little you paid, let them think it cost a bundle.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great looking, Solid watch, but a bit of a noisy winding movement, February 26, 2008

By

This review is from: Invicta Men's 9110 Pro Diver Collection Automatic Watch (Watch)

The watch is great, and at this price it is hard to beat a waterproof and automatic watch. I'd recommend it.

My only complaint would be that the winding movement is more than a little audible. When the counterweight spins it is very easy to hear in a quiet environment. I think the version of this watch with the metal band would be less noticable as the band itself will rattle some with normal wrist movement.

All in all I am VERY satisfied with the watch and quality and would recommend it to anyone, and would consider buying another Invicta in the future.

This review is from: Invicta Men's 9110 Pro Diver Collection Automatic Watch (Watch)

I bought this timepiece during a fairly recent "Daily Watch Deal" for $69.

This watch features a stainless steel case, screw-in crown, 21 jewel miyota automatic, black face with luminescent markers, and a solid rubber strap.

A sloppy automatic movement which at times is inaccurate and relatively loud detracts from the overall package. In addition, I was under the impression that the rubber strap was ribbed throughout, but actually is not (2 on each side of strap).

For what it is, you really can not go wrong, it is an attractive, inexpensive watch and should definitely be added to one's collection. However, don't expect a watch that "lists" for $315.
