I bought this for my wife. I liked the look and styling of the watch. However, I bought it for her to use the bezel to time her exercise. I had a heck of a time turning the bezel. Also, the seconds hand was not aligned well with the seconds ticks around the dial - did not like that as well. I sent it in for warranty repair and it was returned with both items not repaired. I guess this level of quality was found to be normal for this watch.

Sporty stainless steel diver watch with "Invicta Blue" face. Date complication at the 3:00 position with bubble magnifier. I love this watch, you can wear it with just about any outfit. It is of solid construction, can take whatever you dish out to it and still look like new.

Overall an excellent product. The only issue is the date and time settings. The instructions created confusion by indicating to set the date you need to pull out the crown to the first position and the clock will stop. I tried pulling out the crown and it would not budge. After some choice words to the watch - I tried to unscrew the crown and it popped out. Tried to find a crown position where the clock stops. Only stops at the second position to set the time. After more choice words directed to the watch - pushed the crown in to the 1st position and turned the crown counter clock wise and the date changes. This process took about 15 - 25 frustrating minutes. I found out about the unscrewing of the crown buried in the section that covers all Invicta products. Bottom line - if the instructions were more specific and correct - the process would have taken 2 minutes and I bet this watch's rating would jump a full star. Hopefully this info eases other purchasers pain in the future.

I purchased this watch for a friend who needed a waterproof watch to use while running and at work (as a bartender). She loves it because it is sturdy, waterproof and (best of all) is very attractive. This watch does not look like a heavy duty diver's watch, it is small and looks delicate. And it is very reasonably priced -- though I didn't tell her that.

Bought this watch as a present for my girlfriend Dec 2009. I know wasn't buying a Rolex but I did expect it to last at least a few months or gasp, at least 1 year! 6 months on the dot, the bezel falls off. We didn't even notice until later as it wasn't dropped or bumped against anything, it just fell off. Shoddy manufacturing I guess. As usual I guess for these types of companies, nothing is actually covered under the warranty so the bezel will need to fixed at an extra charge, in addition to the shipping and handling fees, which come out of the customer's pocket. All in all, it will require 50% of the purchase price just to get this fixed as the warranty does not cover anything. Stay away from Invicta watches, you're better off buying a 10$ Timex from your corner store. Heck, you're better off buying with a dollar store watch in terms of value for the money!

I bought this watch for it's diveability--ability to be taken underwater, and to use the bezel for timing runs and dives.
I bought it in April--less than three months later, the numbers and color of the bezel have completely washed away.
It has been fine otherwise, but if you're specifically looking for the bezel functionality, it appears you'll need to look elsewhere.

I collect watches. Of all the watches I own, this is my absolute least favorite. In fact, I guess I don't technically own it now since I loaned it to a friend because she needed a waterproof watch, and I haven't gotten it back. I'm not terribly upset at all.

Positive: the color of the face is lovely
Negatives: the magnifying bubble over the date function is hideous. In my opinion the watch would be attractive if not for the ugly little bubble. It also doesn't seem to keep time very well. In the short time I had it before lending it to my friend, I noticed that sometimes the short hand didn't line up with the corresponding place between the hours. For example, it would be 1:30 and the big hand would reflect this clearly by pointing to the 6, but the little hand would only be a quarter way through the 1 and 2 hour markers--rather than half way through. Very odd.

If you're thinking of purchasing this watch, I recommend going to a store and seeing it in person to check whether or not you like the magnifying bubble and to see whether the hands are accurate.

Note: the picture makes it look much prettier than it really is.

I really love this watch. I wasn't sure how much I would like it. I thought that it might be too "chunky" for me from the pictures, but it is smaller than I expected. The face is not too masculine or overpowering. I really like the date feature with the little magnifying window. The blue color of the face is very attractive and makes the time easy to read. I had to adjust the band significantly downward. I am not a "tiny" person (I'm 5'10") so I suspect very petite women might find it hard to get the band to fit properly. It's easy to read, comfortable, and classy looking. Just right!

Bought this watch for my partner. She loves it. She is very active and wears the watch when she plays golf and kayaks. It's tough, durable and stylish.

I love my new Dive watch; wear it all the time, not only for "wet" sports but for everyday too!! Pretty watch, good quality, good price, great transaction!!
