Invicta

[GreenTechGuy]

im looking for an inexpensive watch to wear when tinkering with my cars or in the shop working on a project. I have looked at the seiko SKX007-1 but the invictas have caught my eye on shop nbc a few times. Any of you guys had any experience with them?

I have an Invicta
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Invicta-Prod...4074878&sr=8-1
Bought it last Christmas, at the time it was £60. Can't beat it as something to use when you don't want to wear something expensive but still want the look of a Sub.

I did find the bracelet is in fact superior to the Rolex.

I don't consider Invicta a cheap option if the purpose of owning the watch is to wear it while working on your car.

They are in the 100 dollar range to me that is too much to spend on a watch that is going to get banged around the inside of an engine or scraped on the driveway while underneath a car.

I would either not wear a watch at all or get something in the 20 dollar range like a Timex Camper.

here is the Invicta compared with an O&W M4 and a Sub C

They say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery but that is a little too close for my comfort.

the Sub is the most copied watch design ever so there are bound to be some close ones
