Amazon.com Product Description Sporty yet sophisticated, this silver-tone Invicta Diver RB stainless steel men's watch will feel at home both in the boardroom or a on wakeboard. It features water resistance to 100 meters (330 feet), which is suitable for recreational scuba diving. The large, round watch case is topped by a unidirectional rotating bezel with elapsed time markings in red and black and coin-edged detailing for a sure grip. The blue dial face offers large Tritnite luminous dotted markers and oversized hands (with seconds hand), as well as a date window at 3 o'clock. It's completed by a handsome silver stainless steel bracelet band with a fold-over safety clasp. Other features include a precise Swiss quartz movement, off-center protected crown, and scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. Tritnite is a luminous material with an extended glow exclusively developed by Invicta in Switzerland and added to their timepiece hands and markers. When exposed to regular daylight, it will hold its glow for about 20 hours. About Invicta Latin for "invincible," Invicta was founded in La Chaux-de-fonds, Switzerland in 1837 by Raphael Picard, who believed that fine Swiss timepieces could be offered at modest prices. For more than a century, the company has created distinctive manual and automatic-winding pieces. In 1991, descendants of the Picard family reaffirmed the company's founding principle, and the invigorated Invicta has been growing ever since with one of the most widely diverse collections of precise Swiss timepieces on the market.

  Watch is okay; bracelet is junk July 29, 2008 I got this watch during an Amazon.com sale; I feel that it is worth what I paid, not more. It is not worth the non-sale price. Flaws: The markings on the bezel do not line up accurately with the markings on the dial. The second hand hack does not line up with the markings on the dial. The date is too small to be read by aging fellows like me with weakening eyes.
The biggest flaw, as another review mentions, is the very cheap costume-jewelry bracelet. It is easily the worst quality steel bracelet that I ever experienced on a watch, and I have owned some cheap watches (Timex, for example). For comparison, the bracelets on my Seiko and Wenger watches are ten times better. The bracelet is so bad that it squeaks when the links rub against each other, and I fear cutting myself when I put the watch on and take it off. I would like to switch the bracelet with one on a dormant Seiko I own, and I may take it to a jeweler for this. I wish they had spent an extra five bucks on a decent bracelet and raised the price by five bucks.
  Quality watch, the bracelet could be improved February 8, 2007 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
This is a quality nice looking watch, not bulky, looks more expensive than it is. Being quartz is as accurate as it can be. I sync'ed it with the atomic clock and for 3 weeks has been running sharp. The dial is not navy blue, but something between purple and deep blue. The Trinite holds its glow for about only 2 hours though. The sapphire cristal is flat, which helps avoiding accidental hits. Also the crown is off-center, so it's more protected.
Only important drawback I could mention is the bracelet, although is functional, adapts well to the wrist (You might have to remove some links), it is folded steel (Not solid) so it feels a bit cheap and light, it just that it doesn't match the look and feel of the case. Also some people might not like the combination of brushed and polished links in the same bracelet (Although I do).
