These are great watches. I sold the 1st one of this model i had that had white accent ls where this is orange to a friend after many years of reliable use and time keeping, only issue it had was one I caused, where it fell pretty far, and hard onto concrete driveway and the 24 hour subdial hand came off. Otherwise it was a very durable and reliable watch that was very accurate and good looking. This is why i decided to give this orange and grey version a try since the white and grey did great. I also have several invicta prodiver models that are still running strong after years of use. Invicta is one of my go to watch brands for this reason, they look good, are well built and on Amazon can be found for great prices like this. Do note this watch is 50mm bezel which is rather huge, so if you have a smaller or thinner wrist or do not like big faced or heavy watches this model is not a good pick for you. 50mm is the biggest I'll go. See the images I attached for reference my wrist is average width. Update: watch is still doing well, no issues with this one, but it hasn't been knocked off a tailgate onto a driveway like my 1st one was that caused the 24 hour subdial hand to bust off. The fact the 1st one took that, had a loose hand in the face and still functioned otherwise normally spoke alot to me about its overall build. The fall it took was a big and hard fall with a bounce that caused the break. It didn't scuff the case or break anything internally otherwise it still kept accurate time. Had a friend want it and sold it cheap to him as he was starting to collect watches. This version has done great, extremely accurate, good chronograph and looks. Its a bit big on the wrist, if the crown and chronograph pushers were smaller it'd be a bit better wear. I agree with another review on the date setting with crown click, it has no noticeable click or any real resistance in the crown pull where date stop pull setting is at, can make date changes/setting a bit difficult compared to some other watches. But its a big, reliable watch. Read more
This Speedway model, which was on sale briefly for less than $50, is a fine timepiece. Amazon replaced the first one I received, the only Invicta I've ever experienced with a painful factory defect; it should have failed QC but somehow, as bizarre as it seems, this was a serious issue that slipped by the factory (and me). Both the initial watch and the replacement looks great in all respects, and the things which should accompany the watch were there; the Invicta yellow tag was attached where it should be with the yellow string, with protective case and crystal clear covers, and a plastic bag slipped over the watch. After making sure the watch was clean, wiping it completely down, within a few minutes my skin reported a quite noticeable itching sensation; I moved the watch to the outside of my write, and then the sensation grew more sharp and uncomfortable. I removed the watch and ran my finger over the entire rear surfaces of the case, discovered to my amazement that the outer edge of all four case lugs (which is where you attach the spring bars and wristband) was sharp enough to cut paper. Never would have expected to see this slip through the factory QC checks yet it did, and I've never seen this with any other make of any watch ever, not even the really el-cheapo, no-name throw-aways. Amazon sent an immediate replacement and all is well again; there are zero sharp edges and the watch is as perfect as anyone who likes a large Invicta watch still hopes for it be! Kudos as always to Amazon's great reps for handling this defect issue so quickly, I placed a note on the return so the return folks don't accidentally cut themselves; no one should have to resort to emery cloth or a special tool to grind sharp edges of any new watch. This watch really looks better than the photos submitted and is beefy as expected and with the color scheme of white hands against a black dial, it's easier to read than other Speedway or Aviator models I have; the orange outer outline on the white hour/minute hands and with the white sweep second hand, I've had no problems checking it in all conditions short of a very dark room. When I charge it with a black light for 30 seconds, the luminescence lasts several minutes, but as always, the Tritnite lume formula leaves so much to be desired. So far, the replacement watch is spot on accurate following the initial time hack. This particular silicone/rubber band is comfortable enough, though I have a black/gray/blue striped Nato band awaiting, just in case. I've found the less expensive Nato bands are just as solid and nice as the over-$20 versions, but as always, YMMV. With Amazon as seller and fulfilling the order, what's not to like?! If these are offered again below $50, just try one, or two! What a gift for someone who likes a nice watch. I hope this info is helpful to others with their watch purchasing decisions. Full disclosure; we have received no free products and my reviews are fair and honest. Read more
Excellent watch! The stainless steel build feels premium, and the blue dial looks even better in person. It keeps perfect time and works great for both casual and formal wear. Invicta nailed it with this one — highly recommended. Read more
i love the wacth, then i saw the other blue one was 50% cheaper than the black and i was like ughhh i didnt save money here. still i love it. Read more
The watch has a solid weight to it that I like. It also looks nicer than the picture did it justice. I have a thick wrist with most watches barely fitting on the first notch, but this one sits on the 4th notch. It seems to keep time perfectly, so far. I thought it would be a bit smaller, but the watch face covers most of the top of my wrist. I don't like how I have to set the date on it. It tells you to pull it out to the first "click", but you can't feel a first click. It took way to long to find the sweet spot that allowed me to put the date on the correct day. I am definitely not looking forward to adjusting it on March 1st. Overall, seems to be a good, solid watch & worth the money, though I probably would not have purchased it if it was not half off for Black Friday. If it explodes or starts running backwards while singing the macarena, I will try to update this review & warn ya'll, but for now, I like it! Read more
