Classic diver style
I used to have the automatic version of this watch, but although I got many compliments on it, the power reserve eventually became lousy. You could wear it all day but it would be dead by morning. Word to the wise; if you want automatic, go high end; I never have run across a lower priced auto that was any good; if fully wound it should have at least a 72 hour power reserve. At any rate, I liked the watch and thought if they ever made a quartz one with a regular battery I'd get it just for everyday wear. At this price, I couldn't resist. It is fairly heavy and solid without being ridiculously large or clunky. It's got a classic masculine appearance without looking like you have a clock on your wrist. It has a magnified date window, working coin-edged rotating bezel, and guarded crown (knob). It doesn't have the screw-down crown of the auto, it's a regular pop-out one so not a real dive watch in my opinion. I seriously question if it will withstand 200m without water leaking in. This is 21 atmospheres of pressure that will crush most organisms. Largely irrelevant as any modern diver uses a dive computer, not a wristwatch. I won't be submerging it in water if I can avoid it, but then again I don't wear any of my watches in the water. It also doesn't have the faint blue tint on the crystal (lens) as on the automatic, so I'm guessing it is regular glass rather than sapphire crystal. Thusfar it is keeping excellent time. The band is solid and doesn't feel flimsy or cheap, and has a security clasp. "INVICTA" is engraved on the left side of the case, nobody else will notice but it's a classy touch. In short, you are getting semi Rolex Submariner look and feel at a tiny fraction of the cost. It's a good looking watch that looks expensive for a very low price point, without looking gaudy or ostentatious. I wouldn't try to be Jacques Cousteau with it though.Ver másVer menos
