Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
Classically styled with powerful lines and featuring a precise Japanese watch movement, the shock-resistant Invicta Grand Diver men's stainless steel watch is made for serious scuba fanatics with a water resistance rating to 300 meters (nearly 1000 feet). This large, round watch measures 47mm wide (1.85 inches) and 17mm thick (0.67 inches) and it's made from solid surgical grade stainless steel. It also offers a skeleton see-through caseback and molded diving helmet logos on the end pieces connecting the silver stainless steel bracelet band as well as on the screw-down crown. It's topped by a blue unidirectional rotating elapsed time bezel with white markings. The blue dial face is supplemented by Tritnite luminous dotted markers and arrowhead-style hands (with seconds hand). Other features include an anti-reflective crystal with magnifier, date function at 3 o'clock, and diver's buckle with safety clasp.
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).

An instruction manual and an application for the extended warranty program are also included. About Automatic Movements Exhibition case backs make for great complications. This is especially true when they display automatic movements. Automatic movements stem from mechanical movements with one key difference: a mechanism automatically winds the timepiece's mainspring as opposed to forcing the wearer to manually wind. This occurs thanks to a weighted rotor that spins on its own axis, continually charging the mainspring. Timepieces with automatic movements are meant to be appreciated for the craftsmanship and complex aesthetic that they provide and are a must-have for any watch enthusiast!

Grand Diver Watchband Problem,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Invicta Men's 3045 Pro Diver Collection Grand Diver Automatic Watch (Watch)
I did some research on these watches and decided that the INVICTA 3045 Grand Diver had the accuracy and water resistance that I wanted. About two months ago I ruined a dress watch that leaked snorkeling at the beach and that isn't going to happen again. This watch is heavy, with a massive frame and only the one stem penetration with the screw in feature should guard against leakage. The only feature that I do not like is the band. The advertisement states it has a "diver's buckle with safety clasp." If it were not for the safety clasp, there is no way that the closure mechanism would stay closed. As it is, I just don't have that secure feeling as if it were a manual release. It is solid, but the finished quality is very poor. There are enough sharp edges on the band and the clasp that I could fillet myself. It just doesn't look finished. The band design is very close to the type used by the Seiko Chronograph and I am looking to have it replaced. Otherwise, the blue face isn't done justice by the photos on the web, it is very brilliant. It is a keeper, but that band is history, diving helmet or not. Update on that band, it finally broke, the little locking tab snapped off and the watch tried to fall off my wrist. Nobody wants to work on this watch, nobody has a replacement and the Invicta people will gladly ship one to me from Europe for 80 bucks+. Of course this will be the same exact band of poor quality with no positive locking device. Be aware! The watch is still decent, gains 5 minutes each week, but is a solid piece of machinery that is still dry after a day or two at the beach.
UPDATE! I have had this for several years now. Still runs a wee bit fast but has never failed me. No repairs and I found a Velcro watchband that works just fine. The only metal band you can put on this is OEM, not cheap and not a high quality bracelet. But I never take this off in the ocean, beaten and scratched it just adds character to a really great timepiece.

WOW!!!,
This review is from: Invicta Men's 3045 Pro Diver Collection Grand Diver Automatic Watch (Watch)
I've had this watch for a week and I absolutely LOVE it. If you like watches that are big, heavy, solid, eye catching, then THIS IS THE WATCH FOR YOU. I'd read many of the reviews on Amazon, and even watched a scathing review of Invicta on youtube regarding their poor customer service offerings. I'd even read about some of the complaints related to this watch.
My experience was different and positive. It was absolutely HUGE coming out of the box, but if you have built forearms or hands, it looks great. The build quality on my watch was solid. Everything worked as promised and it has exceeded all my expectations for what a nice watch should be. It's easily my favorite watch in my collection. I hope your experience was as good as mine. Oh...i almost forgot, the downsides to the watch, all those shiny, polished bits of stainless steel in the band scratch easily. I'm meticulous about my watches, but already i can see minute scratches. It's not knock against the watch, just a fact of life regarding polished finishes.

Impressive timepiece!,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Invicta Men's 3045 Pro Diver Collection Grand Diver Automatic Watch (Watch)
I bought this on Amazon after looking around the internet for a few weeks. It arrived faster than the tracking numbers indicated! Amazon continues to impress me.
The Invicta Grand Diver is awesome. It looks like a million bucks. The small details like the logo on the second hand, divers on the band and engraving really set it apart from other divers. The size and weight are truly outstanding for a watch that costs less than $200, and it seems well constructed. This watch is now the workhorse of my collection of 15 watches. It keeps good time for a Japanese auto movement and holds a charge for about 36 hours. I do not use a winder for this watch, just wind it when I want to wear it and go. UPDATE! I got a winder from Brookstone and it keeps the watch accurate. If I go a few days between wearing the time difference is non-existant. When it sat while I was away for 2 weeks it was only off by a minute or two. Overall, I would recommend it, but I do not want anyone else to have one and take attention away from mine!
