Rotarded1647545491 Posted January 10, 2011 Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 Invicta makes quality watches. The first thing to understand is that the stated MSRP is kind of a joke in the ShopNBC/QVC image. Some are Japanese made movements, some contain Swiss movements, and others are all Swiss made. What you need to know about Invicta is that you can use the ShopNBC site to research what you like, what movements are in the watches, and what they are ACTUALLY pricing them at. I guarantee they will have them on sale or clearance for less within a month. THEN, you look at sites like WorldofWatches and catch your model on sale for even less. I have these Invictas and couldn't be happier with them: Model 6043 Swiss made, Swiss ETA Quartz Movement, 500meters/3000ft water resistant for under $300 http://lh3.googleusercontent.com/public/Mw3g_q8H0LORdkhj24Wf_VdEVzKXvYyhst9H55r0-puN57NK5KFaHtrxxBFly9UwDNAidzz876ccwXhC_3eoEoBxKBjNTlkRLs0x971vOgpDIndEtNaCZt_LnNAIwGZH_5tL5_d9bbBhl8PEJddDC0MYStU Model 3044 Grand Diver Japanese Miyota automatic movement, 300meter/1000ft for under $200 http://lh3.googleusercontent.com/public/OY02vPSjnd2ybNxoUp_jerWxkKDB3UiEoHsVsM7WknVei4zEoX-14vFPHnEU0UKBWxu7taBPDIn6T6fY1Jj_grt_dbKJrtoPtqHyB8Z7-ZaPGdAC0mIohLT0Tz1SGaieeGXQYZ-Q_SjWFC-12LxAB2zGo__D3mchgcA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rotarded1647545491 Posted January 10, 2011 Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 How about the subaru noma additions of invicta they are like $1500 what's the differences The 6043 above IS a Subaqua Noma III. The only ones that are ACTUALLY over $1000 have the Swiss Valjoux movements. To answer your question on Swiss automatics, I'd have to go with Brietling, Omega, Hamilton, and maybe, after a few blows to the head, a Tag Heuer. My Brietling is a mechanical, the Rolex is an automatic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

04silvrz Posted January 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 cheap. $150 it's basically the exact same thing as the $300 Seiko that is offered. if you like the style of that pulsar you should look up... Aviator or Pilot watches. that's what the style of that one is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

106mm Posted January 14, 2011 Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 Man, there are some badass watches out there these days! I've not worn one for at least 20 years. I'm pretty utilitarian in that regard. If there's a clock on my cell, why do I need one on my wrist? Also, I break stuff A LOT. I once crushed a Rolex my parents gave me by driving over it with a 1968 Impala (no, I wasn't wearing it). lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
