Men's 5053 Pro Diver Collection Automatic Watch

I purchased this watch after seeing it online on Amazon and thought it looked very similar to the Rolex Submariner. For less that $100, I thought "Why not? If it's junk I can return it or keep it as a thrasher watch." Well, I was very surprised. The 8926 is a sharp looking watch! It's heavy, solidly built with thick solid bracelet and clean very Rolex-like dial. This version has the Japanese automatic movement from Seiko, movement NH25A (my watch is engraved 8926A on the back case). The auto-wind rotor is etched with SII and Seiko "dot" logo on the right side and NH25A on the left side along with "twenty one jewels" on the center. There are other miscellaneous engravings on the rotor. I own several automatic watches that I can wind manually by turning the crown. When I tried to wind this watch manually, it didn't do anything. I didn't feel it engage the mainspring... the crown just spun freely. A look through the manual didn't mention anything about the Seiko NH25A movement so I thought perhaps the watch was defective because the crown wouldn't engage the mainspring for manual winding. I decided to check the SII website, specifically the NH25A specification and discovered that this movement doesn't have manual winding capability. It's 100% automatic and must be wound by movement of the rotor. I wonder how many people returned this watch thinking it was defective! Anyway, I put the watch in a watch winder and let it go for 24 hours (timed auto rotation mode)and it's been running flawlessly since. I read how some owners were disappointed that their 8926 reserve time is less than 8 hours. I let mine wind down to see how long the reserve time is and it went a full 36 hours before it stopped. I put it back in the watch winder and let it fully wind up and it's been running non-stop for over a month as a daily wearer. I take the watch off at night and let it sit for 8 to 10 hours per day and it hasn't stopped once. I've pretty much stopped wearing my other watches (I have 45 of them). My 8926A has been running very accurately. In little over month and half, I've only reset the time twice my moving the minute hand back 2 minutes each time. Either I got very lucky with this movement's regulation or Seiko NH25A is an excellent movement! I like my Invicta 8926A so much and have been so impressed with Invicta quality, I went and bought more. I now have the following... 8926 Japan Automatic S/S (stainless steel) scalloped edge bezel 9307 Swiss Quarts S/S scalloped edge bezel 9310 Swiss Quartz S/S Gold scalloped edge bezel 9937 Swiss Automatic S/S coin-edge bezel (aka Rolex style) 9938 Swiss Automatic S/S Gold coin-edge bezel (aka Rolex style) All of them are running flawlessly. UPDATE: 9/23/13 My Invicta 8926 has been running non-stop and flawlessly since I bought it over a year ago. During that time, I let it wind down only three times just to see what the reserve time is and it's right around 30 - 35 hours. When I'm not wearing the watch, it's in an auto-winder. I don't like getting my watches wet because I hate the wet clammy feeling under the watch on my wrist and I have to take the watch off anyway to dry it, so I generally won't soak the watch to begin with, especially if it has leather band. Having read the customers review that complained about the water resistance of their Invicta watches, I decided to soak mine... in the shower and in a cup of water overnight. No damage visible and watch keeps perfect time. Maybe I'm lucky? Now, that was before I opened the case back to regulate the watch. The gasket still looked good when I put the case back back on but as for its water tightness now, I don't know and I don't care because I'm not going to soak it diving down to 660 feet. The watch crystal, bezel, case and most of the links still look very shiny and in excellent condition except for the clasp which is completely scratched up from being dragged across desks. It's taken few very hard hits and hasn't suffered any shock damage. Overall, I was so pleased with my Invicta, I bought many more instead of dropping a lot of money on one Swiss-Made brand name watch... I researched a lot about the Swiss watch industry and now I refuse to fall for the marketing scam. I work with several people who are watch snobs and they pretty much laugh at the Invicta brand or any thing else that doesn't cost upwards of $5000 and up. Can someone tell me why Breitling, Tag Heuer, Tissot and Rolex cost so much, especially if its just stainless steel and not precious metal case?? Just a bit of rambling now. Over the past year, I've sort of lost my mind and became a watch fanatic... I now own about 300 watches and the last tally on purchases surpassed $10,000. I became fascinated with the whole watch industry and watchmaking/repairs and decided to study Horology as a hobby. For one, the whole Swiss Made quality thing is a marketing scam. I delved into the whole manufacturing/marketing thing and learned that really there is only a handful of movement manufacturers in Switzerland (Swatch Group being one of the largest {ETA movements}) that supply most of the movements to other manufacturers. Some of the EXPENSIVE name brand watches use "upgraded" movement parts that you'd find in lower priced watches. I can understand the "upgrading" of the parts but how do they justify the incredible cost? It's all in the name. I bet you'll be surprised to learn that a lot of Swiss watches are made with parts supplied by companies outside of Switzerland and "finished" in Switzerland. As long as it's 50% cost of assembly of the movement in Switzerland, it's considered Swiss Movement. It doesn't matter where the parts came from (China). Now, of course there are some Swiss watch manufacturers that make everything in-house and don't share anything, but it's only a handful. So, with this dose of skepticism, I bought many watches to test and evaluate, priced from about $15.00 to over $1000.00. I also bought a timing machine and various watchmaker tools and gained enough knowledge to be able to take apart and repair mechanical watches (as well as quartz watches.) Sapphire crystal is the rage on watches... so I decided to replace quite a few of them on my personally owned watches... and discovered that they aren't that expensive at all. In Los Angeles Jewelry District, I bought many genuine sapphire crystals from dealers that supply watch parts to repair shops for about $10.00 to $35.00 per piece depending on size and thickness, most of them being in the $10 - $15 mark. It takes me less than 5 minutes to swap out the mineral glass with the sapphire glass. I also buy watch batteries for about 50 cents per piece instead of $4.00 to $5.00 per piece you'd find at repair shops. Shows you what kind of profit they are making... Using my timing machine, I have regulated my mechanical watches to accuracy within +/-5 seconds or better per day. My Invicta 8926 with the NH25A Seiko movement has been regulated to within +/-2 seconds per day. It took me about 30 minutes of measuring and adjusting the balance to get this accurate and it was done measuring the timing with dial up, dial down, 12H up, 12H down, 3H up (crown up), 3H down, averaging positional error. The watch also has 0.1 mSec beat timing error or better depending on positioning, which is good. It means the tick and the tock of the watch is timed almost perfectly. I could have paid thousands of dollars for ONE watch bearing famous Swiss name to get this type of accuracy, but then, I would have learned that I was ripped off just for the bragging rights to say "I own a (insert expensive name watch here)." I even bought a tourbillon watch to test it for timing accuracy and... surprise... it's no more accurate than my other $100 - $500 watches. Now, I will admit that some of my mechanical watches were very very difficult to regulate because they just wouldn't hold adjustment. But it was more of an exception than the rule. Those watches I use to practice taking apart and reassembly... and I have broken a few of them. Quartz watches, in general, are very accurate. I've been timing them using timing signal from Fort Collins, Colorado for accuracy and from my no-name $15 quartz watch to my Philips Watch (Swiss Made)and my Movados (and all in-between from Chinese, Japanese and Swiss)have all been within 5 seconds per month or better with an exception of a few that have been off my almost 8 to 10 seconds per month. In other words, in a year, the worse timed quartz watch will be off by 2 minutes. I can live with that. Oh, and I'm still adding to my watch collection. Yes, I have lost my mind... :)

For less than $100 US, I doubt you can find an alternative that has the same long list of highly desirable features: - Reliable, highly accurate movement (Seiko Instruments 4R36) with hacking and winding support. - Unidirectional, reasonable quality bezel - Screw down (water resistant) crown - Exhibition (see through) screw-on (water resistant) case back. - Classic & elegant design based closely on the most influential watch design ever created (Rolex Sub). This is basically a barely legal replica except for the bezel which has a dis-similar omega style design). The most comparable thing out there would be a Seiko 5 Sports SNG-805 which is also has a very pretty, though non-diver's style design. But the Seiko models under $100.00 will generallly have the non-hacking, non-winding 7S26/36 movement, which is a good reliable mechanical movement but lacking the previously mentioned convenience features. Maybe some would argue in favor of the a Russian made Vostok model, which have various movement capabilities - some are automatic, some manual winding, but none of them hacking, as far as I know. These are interesting watches, no doubt, but I've never had one and I don't find the designs particularly attractive (they look like old bottle-tops to me). There are a lot of highly negative reviews of this watch, and 'where there is smoke' there is probably fire. Invicta quality control, if any, is marginal, and warranty support is notoriously unsatisfactory. You kind of have to have 'lady luck' in your corner when you purchase one of these. If you "get a good one", you will be thrilled with what you get for your $$. If not, and you have to deal directly with the manufacturer, you might want to avoid throwing good money after bad (and considerable aggravation) by just tossing the watch and moving on. Oh well! You can give yourself a good hedge against negative scenarios by making sure to buy one of these offered with Amazon's Free Returns. When you receive it, remember that you are the quality control supervisor for your purchase: wind up the watch and test it for accuracy, and perform other reasonable tests to make sure the crown works properly and that the hands of the watch are securely attached and won't fall off, etc. Return the watch if you find any defects or if time-keeping is unsatisfactory. Many negative reviews comment that the watch's water resistance failed and the watch fogged up and stopped working after they went swimming with it (or otherwise submerged it in H2O). My understanding is that the watch is NOT ISO certified for the water resistance stated (200M) so I would suggest considering this more of a 'diver's style' watch, rather than a true dive watch. That is, don't buy this if you are looking for watch that's good for water sports. Another common complaint is the bracelet. I think it's actually a pretty decent bracelet for a watch at this price, but it's not a high quality, durable bracelet, so you just assume before buying this that to make sure that you have it attached to your risk in a highly secure manner, you will have to eventually replace it. It looks great with a black & grey stripped NATO strap, IMHO. Other criticisms of this watch relate to it's being such a close copy of the Rolex Sub. I've never had a Rolex, and would not consider buying one. If I had that kind of money to toss around (I don't!), better to donate to a worthy cause, I would say. This watch may be just a 'slavish copy', but I think credit should be given where it is due: it takes some ingenuity to manufacture something that can sell for $85 that is, to a close approximation, similar, in appearance and performance, to a watch that costs over 100x more.

I saw Invicta watches on that Shopxxx show on tv for quite some time and always admired the look and style of some of the models shown. I did a lot of research on the internet and one of the models everyone seemed to rave about was the 8926. The reviews were mostly positive but there were complaints about watches received with the hands falling off under the crystal, stopping after a few days and poor customer service overall from Invicta. After viewing information on the forums the people who owned in some cases eight Invicta watches all agreed that you got a lot of watch for the money. Even though I was skeptical about their quality I ordered the 8926 from Amazon. I waited to write this review until I had actually worn the watch for a week, at work and at home as well to see how well it performed in every day use. First off I couldn't beat the price from Amazon anywhere on the internet, even cheaper yet with free shipping. When the watch arrived it came in the traditional Invicta yellow cheese box. The pictures on line do not do the watch justice. The stainless steel case and bracelet are polished and flawless, the center of each link has a smooth polished finish and the sides have a brushed finish. This particular watch has a mineral crystal on the face and the back so you can see the main spring and auto winding rotor. You can wind it as well. I took out some links to fit it to my wrist, wound it up as suggested in the manual and set it and to my surprise the Miyota 21 jewel movement has not missed a beat in over six days, by far accurate enough for me. I work in a health club and during the course of the day banged it more than a few times loading a washer up right on the crystal. After checking, not a scratch and it didn't lose a second. There were some negative reviews on the Amazon site from people who bought the 8926 but in my experience I didn't have any of the problems they described. So far this is one solid, classy looking watch. Just taking it off of your wrist, turning it over and watching the thing tick away through the crystal on the back is a blast. So far so good, and if you are into an automatic watch ( it winds itself with the swinging motion of your arm ) this could be the one for you.

I was recently struck by an urge for low-priced, non-battery powered watches, so I purchased this Invicta 8926, a Citizen Eco-Drive Calibre 5700, and a Seiko 5 Sports SNZ315. These are all watches that have internet pricing of below (and in some cases, well-below) $200. So how do they compare? MOVEMENT The Seiko and Invicta are both automatic watches that recharge every time you move your wrist. The Seiko 7S36 and the Miyota movement found on the Invicta are very similar in accuracy. I've noticed that both watches run about 4-6 seconds fast a day if you're wearing the watch for at least 8 hours every day. However, they both run about 15-20 seconds fast if I just let them sit on a table without wearing them for a whole day. The power reserve of each isn't very impressive. The Invicta stopped working after about 30 hours without a recharge, while I've gotten about 34 hours from the Seiko. However, I've only tested the power reserve on each watch once. I believe that both manufacturers claim about 40 hours of power reserve, but I haven't experience it yet. In comparison, the Citizen is actually a quartz movement powered by a solar-rechargeable lithium-ion battery. That being said, this watch has a quartz movement that runs about 4 to 6 seconds fast a month (using the US atomic clock as the benchmark)! I haven't been able to exhaust the power reserve on the watch yet, since it's always recharging in most light conditions and the manufacturer claims a power reserve from a full charge to be about 150 days! - definitely avoids the pain of having to constantly readjust the time as you would have to do with an automatic watch that you leave sitting around for more than a day. CASE, CRYSTAL, AND BEZEL The Citizen has the largest case at about 42 mm. The Invicta comes second at 40 mm, while the Seiko is the smallest at about 37 or 38 mm (I forget the exact measurement). All three watches have mineral crystals. In this price point, I don't think any manufacturer offers a sapphire crystal. Only the Invicta has a magnification lens over the date - I find it quite functional as it magnifies more than 50%. Both the Invicta and the Citizen have unidirectional bezels, while the Seiko has a non-functional bezel. The bezel on the Citizen is a bit too "floaty" as the bezel depresses towards the case when you apply pressure from the top - gives an unstable feeling to it. As a sharp contrast, the Invicta bezel is extremely difficult to operate. It no longer has a "coin edge" as it had in the past. The new style has scalloped edging that affords very little grip - annoyingly difficult to move with wet or tired hands, but at least it has no chance of moving from an accidental bump. BRACELET AND CLASP The Citizen has the best bracelet of the bunch. It has a hefty weight, is well-finished, won't snag wrist hair, and feels solid all around. It also has a push-button release clasp with a safety latch - very secure and easy to operate. Both the Invicta and the Seiko have fold over clasps with safety latches - secure, but more difficult to operate. These clasps also tend to get loose over time. However, the Invicta bracelet is impressive for the price. It has a heavy, secure feel with a decent finishing of the metal. The Seiko bracelet LOOKS the best due to its unique raised centerlink design, but it is also of the lowest quality. It has a very "tinny" feel to it with very little weight. The metal is thin and poorly finished - I wouldn't be surprised if someone cut himself on the safety clasp! When you pick up the Seiko, you can tell that it's low-priced for a reason. DESIGN The Invicta has a very classic design (styled after the "Submariner") that will likely never go out of style - it definitely looks like a more expensive watch. The Citizen has a more contemporary look; however, some people may find that the various "mini" dials (chronograph timer, 24-hour time, second hand) on the face of the watch make it look "busy." If you look at the Seiko from afar, the dial is a snappy blue color surrounded by a bold bezel. The design of the bracelet is a diversion from the typical - with raised centerlinks in a unique "bean" shape. COST I paid shipped prices of $160 for the Citizen, $105 for the Seiko, and $85 for the Invicta from various internet retailers. CONCLUSION As far as "cheap" watches go, I prefer the Citizen Eco-Drive due to its higher build quality, vastly more accurate movement, virtually "maintenance-free" power requirements, and ultra-functional bracelet clasp. However, if you focus on comparing automatic watches in the same price range, the Invicta is vastly superior to the Seiko in terms of build quality. With a similar movement accuracy, the Invicta offers more quality at a lesser price than the Seiko. Unfortunately, the Invicta gets a bad rep for being a cheap "knock-off" of a Rolex.

I've now had this watch for 3 full months, and I wanted to give it at least that much time before submitting a review on the watch. In the 3 months I've had it, I've been swimming, camping, canoeing, and working around the house. The watch has been banged up, submerged, and worn 24/7 during all sorts of activities. The crystal is still clear, and unscratched, the bezel still accurate and aligned. The band is getting slightly scratched at the clasp, but that part is rubbing along every surface that I rest my wrist on. It seems to alternate +/- 1minute, but I've not needed to adjust the watch after the first couple of weeks. The magnification on the date is good, and easy to view. The lumination from the hands does fade after several hours, but during my last camping trip was brightly lit until well after I went to bed. All in all, this has proven to be a great watch, if you like large dive style watches. Several folks have commented on the looks of the watch, and mistaken it for a much more expensive Swiss type watch. I'm tempted to buy a spare, and lock it in a drawer for the day that I destroy this one in some sort of accident. ---- 2 year review. The watch is still going strong, with problems at all! I've had to replace the pin that holds the band to the watch body a couple of times, following a couple accidents involving hard shocks to the watch band & body. (Once chipping ice in the driveway for a couple of hours straight, should have removed the watch, and another after a day of splitting wood with an 8# maul) The band, and the body, however, are still holding strong. The underside of the glass has a slight haze to it, but it's only visible in very strong, angled light. It's still holding it's accuracy very well, though if not worn overnight, it seems to drop a few minutes. When it's on my wrist 24/7, it might lose a minute in a month or more. I very rarely have to reset the time, and considering that I don't have to ever change batteries, I'm willing to make that minor adjustment every few months. I'd STILL recommend this watch very highly. Worth every dollar I spent on it, as I'd usually be looking for a new watch after 2 years, when buying battery operated ones. -------- 4 Year review. The crystal has fogged a bit more, and it's beginning to lose some time every day (about a minute). Watch band pins (the one that holds it to the case) are failing on a regular basis, and the band has broken the pin that holds the clasp. (Fixed with a paper clip). Considering that I wear this watch 24/7, and it gets banged around a lot, I'd say for the price, it held up very well. I will be buying a supply of the pins that hod the band to the case though. I seem to be tough on those, and have spent more on band pins & replacement of same, than on the watch itself. Time for a new watch, and my next one will be another automatic Invicta. Not sure if I'll go for the black face or the blue this time around though. I'm going to keep this one in the drawer though, once I get a new band for it, as a backup watch.

I may not be the most reliable source for all things luxury watches. I do own quite a few known brands, and I liked this watch based on its homage aesthetic, the semi skeleton on the back, not to mention it being automatic, and having the diving capacity (200m)! The screw down crown, Japanese movement (that mimics Seikos) all for less than a steak dinner and drinks… if this didn’t have the Invicta logo on the dial, and had a (insert brand name) you can easily add another zero to the price and have come off with a great deal! I see that this watch is out of stock (the 8926 model), and if you can find this watch I recommend locking in. Give as a gift or a “travel” watch (if you are worried about thieves / damage). I just purchased some straps to play up the watch (I’m not a fan of the steel bracelet). I hope this review helps you decide. Great watch!

I received my 8926 in the mail a few days ago, I wanted to wait to post a review until I had some experience with it. Before I get into the watch, I should note that this is my second Invicta, the first I got a few years ago and it kept terrible time, breaking eventually. However, since I bought it on ebay, I decided to give the company another chance, and I think I am going to be very glad that I did, despite my initial apprehension. First impressions: The watch came packaged very nicely, in a stylish yellow box with a pillow, a cleaning cloth, and warranty information. NOTE: Be sure to get the free 'Platinum Warranty' from Amazon, extends the one year Invicta warranty to five, and all it takes is filling out a form that comes in the box. The watch was well packaged, covered in plastic and blemish free. It was much heavier than I expected, even after reading other reviews. Perhaps I am not used to steel watches, because I have mainly leather/rubber bands and the metal watches I own are titanium, but in any case, the weight made it feel substantial. I was able to adjust the band on my own, with no special tools and without scratching the band, a little care and patience is all that is needed. Once I got the fit just right, I put the watch on, and it felt great on my wrist. As some of the other reviews have mentioned, don't expect a big watch. I would characterize this as medium to slightly larger. That being said, it is great, a classy look without being ostentatious. I personally prefer the Omega style bezel over the rolex coin style. I can't afford a Rolex and I would rather have a subtly different watch than a copy/fake. The bezel is difficult to rotate, but I assume it will get easier with time. A week in: The watch still looks great. Granted, it has only been a week, but I have knocked it a couple times and not had a scratch. People who complain about the durability must really beat the heck out of these things. I am a student, not a diver, so those actually using this watch for its intended purpose may have different experiences, but in the ordinary course of wear, it seems like it should hold up fine. And if not, hey, just adds character. To jump on the bad magnifier bandwagon, the bubble seems to have very limited effect. That being said, you don't really need to see the date on your watch from 5 feet away, so having to hold it a little closer (if for some reason you can't remember the date) isn't the end of the world. The illumination is average, easily visible but fades quickly. I am enamored of the blue citizen glow material, but this is certainly sufficient Time keeping: As everyone knows, automatics are inherently slightly inaccurate and vary from unit to unit. This is a common, well tested Miyota movement, and will probably settle some with time, but so far it seems to be well within an acceptable range. Comparing it to the official time.gov website, the watch has varied between 5-10 seconds a day. The movement seems fairly smooth and quiet, about on par with other watches at the near $100 price point. That being said, I hope it does get a little more consistent, but I can easily live with the variance. Comparisons: I own quite a few other watches of similar style and price. This watch, to my admittedly unprofessional eye, seems to be better than the Seiko 5 movement, and about on par with the Vostok automatic movement (I highly recommend that brand of watch by the way, great quality for the price, perhaps even better than Invicta, time will tell). Although not as accurate as Citizen Eco-drive or Seiko Kinetic, it's an automatic watch and I am very happy with the results so far. I plan to update this review after I come back from vacation, when I will put it to a more serious test in ocean waters. Especially with the current price, anyone considering this watch would be well advised to take the plunge.

I opened the box and said, "Wow" this is a beautiful watch. Too beautiful to wear actually. Finally after several months passed I put it on my wrist, gave it the intial wind up to get going and took a four mile walk, gently swinging my arms as I walked. The watch second hand stopped about every fifteen minutes and I had to shake it to get it going again. Despite walking four miles it failed to wind the spring automatically and would only run for a minute or two tops before it stopped. Now I have to mail it to Invicta with a twenty five dollar check for return postage and handling plus the cost of mailing it to them! Maybe, I just had a lemon but I urge you to wear it the day you get it to use the Amazon warranty and keep in mind that Beauty is only skin deep even if it's stainless steel! The one star is for being beautiful. Updated 12/07/07 I mailed the watch to Invicta for repair and waited almost twelve weeks for it to be returned. After the first seven weeks I called Invicta to check on the repair status. They said it had to be mailed overseas for repairs and would take longer before it was returned to me. Yes, I now have the watch and it actually works. I purchased an auto watch winder and have left it on the autowinder since I received it. It has been running just fine and keeps accurate time. I will now wear it on my wrist and see if it holds up to daily use. The moral of the story is that while the watch is beautiful it is in reality just costume jewelery and not a serious time piece. I have increased the rating to THREE STARS but be prepared to be dissapointed if you want a serious time piece. Updated 12/21/07 Well, I have worn the Invicta on my wrist daily for two weeks and it has kept very accurate time and there have been no problems. This is my conclusion. I love the appearance of the watch and the price was very affordable. I now agree with all the reviews that rave about the watch. You may be one of the lucky ones and get an Invicta that works right out of the box. I blame myself for not wearing it during the 30 day return period intially. I can now raise to rating to FOUR STARS for satisfaction and value but only if you are one of the lucky ones not to be shipped a lemon watch, even then the stellar Amazon service will exchange it during the 30 day exchange window. 3/1/08 Well its back to one star for a rating. The auto=wind appears to be on the blitz. If I wear it all day it stops within an hour of taking it off my wrist, even on the automatic watch winder it will not keep running because the rotation is too gentle. What can I say, it is a beautiful watch but is really just costume jewerly. I have a seiko "black monster" dive watch now that is perfect in every regard. 7-6-08 While the watch has been collecting dust in the draw I am still drawn to the beauty of the time peice. I now wear it again but must manually wind it up twice a day to keep it going. I am truly amazed at all the positive reviews that always start out this watch appears to be much more expensive than what I paid for it. I suspect the vast majority of those people are too embarrased to edit their glowing reviews to simply say that their watches have stopped working after a few months. These Invicta watches are all flash and no substance. Be warned, spend a few more bucks and get a Citizen or Seiko dive watch for a truly quality watch that will give years of service and uncompromized customer satisfaction. Everytime an Invicta automatic dive watch is sold an unhappy customer will be the result in a few months. You have been warned!!

ムーブメント、約10日間寝る時も装着して、日差+25秒。 期待したより少し進み気味ですが、許容範囲内。 何より、遅れない個体だったので、満足。 文字盤は、満点。 ケースは、ベルトを付ける腕の部分、面取りが甘く尖っていて、そこだけ残念。 ベルトは、値段相応。カチャカチャするのと、コマの面取りが甘いこと。 留め具が固過ぎる。 ベゼルは、固すぎてスムーズに回せない。 気になる点を並べましたが、この価格でこのムーブメンNH35で、全体的な仕上げに、満足しないはずがない。 デザインが気に入れば、超お勧めです。 つーか、買いましょう。

Perfect and as expected.

Ich bin absolut begeistert von dieser Uhr! Wer auf der Suche nach einer klassischen, sportlichen Taucheruhr ist, die wie ein absolutes Luxusmodell aussieht, aber kein Vermögen kostet, ist hier genau richtig. Was mir besonders gut gefällt: Das Uhrwerk: Das automatische NH35-Uhrwerk läuft unglaublich präzise und zuverlässig. Und Kenner wissen was in der ihr für ein Uhrwerk steckt! Man muss sich nie wieder Sorgen um Batteriewechsel machen – einfach anziehen und los geht’s! Der gläserne Gehäuseboden, durch den man das Werk sehen kann, ist ein echtes Highlight. Die Verarbeitung: Für diesen Preis ist die Qualität der Hammer. Das Edelstahlgehäuse hat ein tolles Gewicht, fühlt sich super wertig an und glänzt fantastisch. Die 40mm Durchmesser sind einfach die perfekte Universalgröße – nicht zu klobig, nicht zu klein. Das Design: Ein zeitloser Klassiker! Ich wurde schon mehrfach auf die Uhr angesprochen, weil sie am Handgelenk einfach extrem edel und sportlich wirkt. Wasserdichtigkeit: Fazit: Die Invicta Pro Diver bietet ein unschlagbares Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis. Sie sieht nach 1.000 Euro aus, kostet aber nur einen Bruchteil. Wer eine robuste, schicke Automatik-Uhr für jeden Tag sucht, macht hier absolut alles richtig. Ganz klare Kaufempfehlung! 👍

Excelente relógio e modelo fantástico.

Je ne peux pas mentionner la fiabilité, l'ayant reçue aujourd'hui. Néanmoins, il y a beaucoup de points positifs : Esthétisme (quand elle est neuve), facilité à régler le bracelet (j'ai eu une montre DE TOMASO où il y a fallu scier les maillons pour les enlever !), étanchéité 20 bars (équivalente à 200 m de profondeur), livraison en 4 jours. Le réglage de l'heure et de la date très simples, la garantie est de 3 ans après enregistrement de l'achat sur le site Invicta Services. La précision initiale était très bonne : sur 9 jours, 4.2 secondes/ jours de décalage avec l'heure système de mon PC. Seul bémol, le mode d'emploi livré est uniquement en anglais et en espagnol. Ce petit point pourrait gêner certains utilisateurs non bilingues. Mais des schémas explicites sont présents. tout ceci fait actuellement un rapport qualité/prix excellent. A suivre pour la fiabilité. Après 3.5 années, d'utilisation quotidienne, il n'y a aucune trace d'oxydation visible, ni de défaut d'étanchéité. La précision initiale de montre a significativement baissé pour passer à un retard d'environ une minute par jour. La loupe de lecture de la date est trop proéminente et est rayée, gênant la lecture. Le point Zéro de la couronne rotative a disparu. Le plus gênant peut-être, est la très faible luminosité du cadran la nuit ( c'est une montre 100% mécanique). j'ai constaté une usure des goupilles du bracelet qui ont tendances à sortir (la montre s'est décrochée plusieurs fois). Récemment c'est celle qui retient le bracelet sur le corps de la montre. J'ai dû changer deux. Heureusement, j'avais ce qu'il faut et ce n'est pas difficile à faire. Après 4.5 années d'utilisation quotidienne, plongées, bricolage, jardinage - tronçonnage, randonnées ... la montre s'est arrêtée définitivement, après deux ou trois alertes. J'avais re-réglé la montre qui a marché comme aux premiers jours pendant presque un an, incluant de la plongée à 40 m. Vu le prix d'achat, le prix potentiel de la révision, et la nécessité de disposer d'une montre robuste et fiable, j'ai préféré la remplacer par une Invicta 8929 (+ 11€ par rapport au prix de juillet 2019 pour la 8926. Ce ne sont pas des montres de GEEK mais elles donnent l'heure, minutes et les secondes, en un coup d’œil, sans appuyer 10 fois sur un cadran !
