Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
 

This one was delivered to my house today. It's my first Invicta, I can see more in my future, LOVE this watch 10x more than I thought I would when I ordered it. No picture will do it justice.

Very unique styling. Kind of like a Corum and I don't know what, but cetainly sticks out. I did not know there were Invictas made in CH?

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
 

What makes you think this watch was made in China?

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
 

I thought they were made in China (CN) or Japan (JP), not Switzerland (CH).

My girlfriend has an Ivicta dive watch and it does not say made in Switzerland on the face...

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
 

I think that they are a Japanese company but a lot of their watches have Swiss movements.

I thought cigars was a slippery slope.....until I found watches :sl

I love Panerai watches. I cannot afford a real one so I had a friend pick up a fake Marina while in China. I will post a pick when I get my camera cord back.

I see a repeating theme... Do you dive?

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
 

Not sure, but the first pic is taken on the water! Very nice watches sir.

No diving, just love the watches.

Thanks Wade, you too. Been looking for that "just right" Pan for a while. Did see a 360 someone had and that would be it for me but chances of finding one are slim. :sh

Hey Larry, I really like that watch. Do you happen to know what model it is?

Thanx

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
 

Spoke with the owner of the company a couple of years ago at the annual Vegas show, sounds like all Invictas are Swiss made.

Been buying them for a long time now, they take abuse like no other watch I had.

Well gentlemen, here is a photo of my awesomely fake watch....

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
 

Those are some of my favorite watches that aren't in my collection, yet

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
 

Yes. It's the Seiko SNQ097.

I forgot this one. I wear this one only when I'm not drinking beer and smoking cigars. Certainly not for everybody, but the workmanship is superb, especially the leather strap. My only complaint is the writing on the 8 and 4. Down the right side of the 4 looks like it's missing paint. Actually, the word automatic is written top to bottom in such small letters I need a loupe to read it.

My best friends girl picked it up for me in China, $30 I think. You cannot find repros online for less than $100.
