Invicta Women's Pro Diver Collection Watch #4868
Excellent purchase...this watch is beautiful, extremely rugged, and well constructed. I purchased it because I am infamous for ruining watches by dunking them in water...and this watch can take the waves! I'm not a diver but I am very active and cannot be worried about my 'jewelry' not keeping up with my lifestyle. This beautiful watch from Invicta could keep up with Wonder Woman!

It's a nice watch but I am a scuba diving instructor and it can't handle the wear and tear. Have already had to take it to a jewelers once because it flooded while I was only diving in 20' deep water. The blue ring around the dial on the outside has cracks and chips that have fallen out of it. I am a woman and it hasn't held up that great; I'd hate to see how it would handle the wear and tear on a guy.

When this watch arrived it was so stunning that I bought the mens version as a backup to my Rolex GMT

The watch was ordered two days ago and I received it today. The expedited shipping was free. That was the first plus. I received the watch and was impressed from start to finish. To describe this watch in one word QUALITY. My wife loved it, and if she is happy I am happy.

I am not just paying for a name, but a name backed by quality craftmanship and real value.

I would recommend this watch over a TAG or BULOVA.

Thanks Invicta

Its a beautiful watch, I really like the blue face. My only complaint is that the inside edge of the band is sharp, and stratches my inner wrist, its a bit uncomfortable. I had it sized, and its not too small, but as it moves, the sharp edges rub.

This is the second one of these watches I have purchased for my wife. They aren't expensive but they do look nice.Looks aren't everything though because we have had nothing but trouble with them. These are supposed to be diver's watches but they leak horribly and condensation on the crystal is always a problem even out of the water. The model 2961 doesn't even have a screw down knob for the time set.

The Invicta warranty service is also horrendous. Not only do they require you to pay shipping to and from the factory for warranty repairs ($60 total), it took them over 4 months to repair the watch the last time. When we got it back from Invicta, within 1 month condensation appeared on the inside of the crystal and the watch hadn't even been in the water! We are certainly not going to pay another $60 to ship it back and forth to Invicta. We would have spent more in shipping than we paid for the watch!

Save your money and look elsewhere.

I bought three (3) of these watches. One was purchased from Amazon and the other two from another site because Amazon only had one watch in stock. I was weary after reading lots of reviews but a few weeks earlier I had purchased the mans version, which I purchased from Amazon. They are great looking watches but if you are buying this for diving I would think twice. One of the watches flooded on the first dive to about 45 ft. A second watch flooded after about 4 dives with a max depth to 110 ft. The third watch up to now is still working fine, keeping my fingers crossed. I contacted Invicta and they want $28 per watch just to send them back for repair. On top of that they quoted me an additional $28.00 to repair the flooded watch where the second hand had also fallen off and $9.00 to repair the one that just flooded. Give me a break, these watches were less then two weeks old. If you plan on using this for diving it's hit or miss, actually in my case with four Invicta dive watches it's a 50% success rate. If you just want a nice looking dive watch that will never see any water deeper then your shower this is the one for you. This review was not written by Mary but here husband Mark. The watches were purchased as birthday gifts. If you are looking for a serious dive watch, make sure it has a screw down crown. I'm considering just cutting my loss and buying another brand watch. After all, there is no guarantee that after I get them back from Invicta (Quoted as 90 days) that they won't flood again.

I got this watch for my birthday. It does not have a cheap look, it is not too heavy, it is quite comfortable, not too small or too big. Also very versatile, it can be worn with business attire or just a tshirt and jeans. Mine was even prettier, as it had a light blue mother of pearl face. It was my favorite watch. However, after about 18 months, the upper round blue ring, where the chrono numbers are, fell off. This part can be glued back on the watch, but I couldn't find the ring. The repair and shipping costs are too high compared to the cost of the watch. I think it is not worth to repair. My husband also got the man's version when he purchased mine and his is working well and looking as if it was brand new.

My wife enjoys this watch... Used it for weeks diving in Kauai, Hawaii. You will not go wrong with this watch for a gift!

I bought this watch as a gift and it has not yet reached its intended recipient. I did however inspect it when it arrived and I was rather surprised to see that it does NOT have a screw-down crown. I fail to see how it can be waterproof to 20atm. Still, the recipient is not a diver so it may be adequate. It is pretty though.
