Amazon.com Product Description

The Russian Diver Watch by Invicta is a powerful black and silver timepiece done in a canteen style with a screw-cap crown and chain. The luminous hands and indexes make it easy to read the time, and the adjustable buckle on the comfy band make for a good fit. Featuring large Arabic numbers and a convenient date display just under 12 o'clock, the grand 52 millimeter stainless steel case frames the black dial with the notable Russian Diver logo in place of 12 o'clock. Water resistant to 330 feet, this eye-catcher will have people noticing, especially when paired with jeans and a t-shirt.

3.0 out of 5 stars NOT SWISS MADE/SHORT BAND- Invicta #4342 Russian Diver, December 7, 2009

This review is from: Invicta Men's 4342 Russian Diver Collection Black Watch (Watch)

I wanted to write this review to inform future buyers of this item, the Invicta Men's Russian Diver Collection Black Watch #4342, of two facts;

1) This watch is not "Swiss Made" as indicated in the pictures of the product that Amazon displays. When I actually received the watch it stated "Swiss Mvmt" on the dial and "Swiss Parts Movement" on the back of the watch case. This means that you are not getting a "100% Swiss Made and Assembled" watch. **Amazon needs to clarify this on the product page and change the pictures to resemble the actual watch that you will be getting.

2) The watch band is extremely short. I have an 8-8.25" wrist and was only able to attach the strap uncomfortably on the last hole. I researched alternative aftermarket 26mm straps and even contacted Invicta for a possible exchange/replacement. The aftermarket straps would only accommodate one set of springs per side without user modification, while this watch actually has two springs per side (probably due to the size and weight of the case). Invicta Service was not able to offer a better solution. The customer service representative stated that the only other option they had to accommodate the two springs, and thus not compromise the integrity of the watch, was a leather band. However, I would have to order it (they would not exchange/replace) and that it measured the same length as the original. **Amazon needs to clarify the actual watch band size instead of just stating "mens".

Some other thoughts about this item;

The watch I received was obviously an open box or return item as it was missing the standard Invicta polishing cloth that comes with all of their watches. It also had some missing protective plastic along one of the sides of the case and the plastic for the crystal had obviously been removed prior and replaced poorly.

Even with these issues, this is a beautiful large watch and would be a great value at the lightning price of eighty dollars for someone with a much smaller wrist and less concern for where and how the watch was manufactured.

A well informed consumer is a satisfied consumer. Amazon please clarify these issues on the product page and maybe reconsider providing more consistent and accurate information on all of your watches.

4.0 out of 5 stars Big, BOLD, FUN, February 21, 2008

This review is from: Invicta Men's 4342 Russian Diver Collection Black Watch (Watch)

I have owned this watch for a week. Its big, bold and a heck of a lot of "fun". Its a big polished slab of stainless steel, big thick mineral glass (or crystal I am not certain). Beefy canteen lid cover for the crown + dive weight looking stainless accents on the thick resin strap. Even the buckle is BIG.

Its just makes watch wearing a lot of FUN. I have other watches that are more conservative and pretty much disappear on the wrist. I wanted a stainless piece with resin strap that stood out more and... just something different.... something no one else around me has. FUN is what this watch is all about.

Super-easy to read at night too. The hands are polished stainless with glow accents. The shiny stainless hands are the brightest/flashiest looking things on the face and offsets the matte black dial nicely. I dont know if they planned it that way, or just got lucky... either way they surely got it RIGHT.

Its a Ronda quartz movement inside and keeps very good time although a week is hardly enough time to evaluate a quartz movement. I sync'd it with my atomic G-shock the day I got it, and so far it shows no signs of inaccuracy.

I already have 6-7 other watches. So this is adding something different to my collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars BIG AND BAD!, October 10, 2007

This is my second Invicta watch and as with the first one, I'm not disappointed with the quality.
It actually looks better in person than on the website. and bigger- much bigger. It's really big. And heavy. And shiny. And big.
It gets a lot of attention. Also, I think my left arm getting bigger.
All joking aside, it is a great watch and I really like it.
