Purchased in 2020 for €120.
The best choice for a first automatic watch in this price range is either the Pagani Design Submariner or this one. The thing is that although the Pagani has sapphire glass and solid end links, the Invicta "copies" the old style Submariner, before they changed to the jumbo case. This makes it better for people with smaller wrists, or who find the modern Submariner bulky.
The luminous element of the dial is negligible, it doesn't last even half an hour.
Countless dives in the sea, it has not shown any problems.
In terms of accuracy, it loses +/-1 second every three days, absolutely satisfactory for its price and its category as an automatic.
I often change the strap, its own bracelet rattles quite a bit.
Purchased for 99€ + 5€ shipping from the company's website, delivered the next day!! The best value for money! It is beautiful, positive comments from all the girls who saw it
What better is currently available in this category at such a price.
Impressive appearance (looks like Rolex submariner)
Top-notch mechanism (NH35A)
Resistance to scratches and falls
Sturdy and heavy in hand.
Suitable for all hours, all occasions, and all outfits.
Value for money 100%
The best value for money with an incredible mechanism and nice materials for this price. Its appearance makes it easy to wear for any occasion and its waterproofing exceeds every need for water use. Get it especially if you find it on sale like I did.
The purchase was made outside Greece but very satisfied with everything. Like most watches, it loses a few seconds every day, but within normal limits. I have had it for 6 years now. The bracelet scratches relatively easily. I haven't found any other negatives. Throughout all these years, I wear it everywhere because I have it as my everyday go-to, so it has endured work, the sea, showers, everything. I had bought it much cheaper, of course, but even for €145 that it costs today, it is perfectly normal for its quality and durability.
Because I have many watches, ranging from expensive to very expensive, I have to say that especially regarding its accuracy, buy it with closed eyes, it's amazing... and you don't even have to worry about breaking it or scratching it... the machine is bulletproof.
The following that you will read concerns an evaluation when it was purchased on 19/7/22 in relation to after a few months of use on 3/4/23. Because I have been wearing the watch almost every day since then until today when I am doing a repositioning, and especially in 2 serious negative aspects according to me... Firstly, the bezel for the night does not exist, meaning it quickly stops illuminating, and secondly, it has very thin hands, resulting in the minute hand being confused with the second hand in conditions of poor lighting... The watch is not value for money, especially at the price of 115 euros that I found it, unless you buy it from Amazon at a price of around 70 euros... Only for the reliability of the Seiko mechanism it wears, I have good things to say... In this aspect, it is excellent, as well as for its waterproofing, which is very good. However, it is not worth it for more. The bracelet at 20 millimeters is just right... Overall, I recommend it only for the 2 positives it has: the mechanism, waterproofing, and maybe for the good quality of materials it has compared to its finishing... Nothing more, though, in terms of value... It does not reach the quality of at least an Orient, which is a subsidiary of Seiko, always with the logic of the price relationship here in Greece...
Very nice watch. Reliable mechanism made by Seiko. Homage to the Rolex submariner. Among the company's models, I consider it to be the only one that is classic, not extreme in its design, and quite value for money (purchased for 100 euros).
Although I own other better watches, I am thrilled with this one initially because of its price (I found it for 110 + 2.50 euros for shipping). It looks very beautiful on the wrist and feels sturdy. I cannot give an opinion on its durability or water resistance as I have only had it for 3 days. I believe you can wear it daily for any occasion. In the three days that I have had it, it has gained a total of +3 seconds, even though I had set it accurately using a smart watch. The Cyclops on the date is incredibly clear and looks very nice. The screw-down crown is currently securing well. The negative aspect is that it does not glow satisfactorily at night, but personally, this does not bother me considering the cost. It has a Seiko mechanism (guaranteed). Some have mentioned that it reminds them of a Rolex. Actually, most diver watches remind me of Rolex. However, this one has its own character, such as having its brand name on the left side of the case, the logo on the second hand, a transparent case to see the mechanism, and a logo on the crown. So, in my opinion, this particular model has its own identity. There are much more expensive watches that are not even water-resistant for swimming. I recommend it for purchase. Very honest. I will come back with an update after some time has passed. Hopefully, I will have good things to say then as well.
The watch, as soon as I took it out of the box, needed service. It wasn't working, at first I thought that maybe the mechanism just needed more energy to start moving. So I wore it up and down the stairs a couple of times, nothing, it doesn't move at all. I took it to a watchmaker hoping it can be repaired.
With a slight deviation of +2 seconds and the two days that I have it, I am incredibly satisfied with EVERYTHING.
It is incredibly sturdy and elegant. The strap does not pinch my hair unlike other metal bracelets.
The open caseback is incredible and gives a different character to the watch.
For those wondering, it has hacking and hand winding.
The only thing that bothers me a little is that the bezel is too hard for my taste
I am amazed at how high-quality it is. Sturdy, with a good strap, accurate, ideal size for a small wrist, and elegant. It's a Rolex clone and people often get confused when they look at it.
It is a damn beautiful watch.
The watch initially appears much more expensive than it costs.
It suits truly dangerous men who faithfully follow the bushido code.
You can wear it to the gym but also to a funeral.
The curiosity of those around you about the brand becomes immediately noticeable as it resembles a Rolex. I have been asked about the brand of my watch 5 times in a day. I believe that this watch is so high-quality and beautiful that for the money it costs, it feels like a gift. It hasn't lost time at all in 1 month. Now, as for water and dropping, I don't know because I won't wear it in the sea, nor do I intend for it to fall.
If someone asked me about the most worthwhile purchase in my life, without hesitation, I would say it's the purchase of this watch.
After 4 months, the time deviation is +2 seconds, which is unbelievable for its price. The measurement was done over a 24-hour period with a smartwatch.
I bought this product because I wanted an automatic watch for everyday use. I have been wearing it every day for about a year now, and it gains +3 to +6 seconds per day. Excellent performance for an automatic off-brand Seiko, with a screw-down crown and good waterproofing. No complaints about the bracelet, it is secure and noiseless. The design reminds me of the Rolex Submariner, but it has developed its own character over time. I highly recommend it.
P.S.
Nowadays, the watch hardly runs at all, the accuracy has greatly improved. It is now at +1 to -1, which is unbelievable
The best in this price range and maybe even double. I have had it for a year and a half and I constantly use it, at work, at the sea, in the pool, in the shower, on the machine... everywhere. It looks like new. It withstands time very well and feels great in the hand. I am at +10 per day, which is decent. I don't know why there are complaints about the bracelet. It is secure, without any noise, etc. And finally, it's a 100 euro watch with a Seiko movement... seriously, this price is a steal for everything it offers. Truly excellent, especially for someone who wants to get into mechanical watches or for someone who doesn't want to wear a watch every day out of fear of damaging it. Five stars are not enough
I bought it about a year and a half ago, for everyday use at work. I didn't have high expectations, as the price was quite low for an automatic watch! Over time, I realized that it is an excellent watch that has almost no time loss (even though it's automatic). It suits all occasions (attire). It is also a beautiful watch, as the photo on the internet does not do it justice. That's why I uploaded my own photo. I highly recommend it without reservation!!!!
Overall, very good watch at this price with a reliable automatic mechanism from Seiko. The bracelet could be of better quality. Overall, value for money!
Very beautiful watch. And in very good packaging. It might be good for its price, in case it actually withstands dives - something I'm not going to test anyway.
Its negative points:
1. It doesn't show the name of the day, only the date.
2. At night, the hours are not visible at all. Only the hands and the 12 o'clock mark of the diving ring glow.
3. The adjustment of the bracelet is very difficult. The bracelets of the corresponding SEIKO or ORIENT watches are much easier to adjust.
A very good watch for its price, mainly because it has the quite accurate (in some lucky owners' cases) time recording NH-35 (essentially 4R-35) hacking mechanism from SEIKO, which puts it in the mid-range models from 270€ up to 450€ (in the SRP turtle PADI). In my case, it goes "back" around 8-10secs, but I read that for some others it reaches an amazing +/- 2-3secs sometimes!!!!! It is hard to find disadvantages, except for the weak lume and the moderate to very moderate durability of the bracelet against scratches. Actually, while the middle parts of the bracelet initially seem luxurious and premium in terms of visual perception, you soon realize that they should have been brushed since they dull and become shiny, so the friend who brushed them did a great job!
I wore it in the swimming pool.
Everything was fine until my hand touched the plastic divider of the lane. Without realizing it, the crown opened and the mechanism got water inside. After a few months, while the crown was occasionally open, it got stuck and broke when I tried to rotate it to change the date.
Conclusion: I will never buy a waterproof watch for water sports without a screw-down crown again.
I had been following various forums for a while as I wanted to enter the world of automatic mechanisms being a watch enthusiast, but due to the current period, I didn't want to spend a large amount. Based on the evaluations of several users, it caught my interest and I started searching for videos and reviews about this specific watch since it is one of the most affordable automatic/mechanical watches. So, after thoroughly researching its features, I realized that it is not only considered "cheap" by experts, as besides its stainless steel case and compact bracelet, it features a quite reputable and extremely reliable Seiko movement (which is used in watches costing 400+ euros) that, according to many users, only loses a few seconds in its category. It also has a hacking function (stops the hands when setting the time, something that most mechanical watches don't do). Finally, it claims to be waterproof up to 200 meters (provided that the crown is properly closed and the waterproofing has not been compromised), although personally I avoid deliberate water contact. In terms of appearance, it reminds me, as you may have read from many, of the Rolex Submariner, personally I wouldn't call it a faithful replica but "inspired," as it has several different details if you observe closely. When I received it, I truly couldn't believe how high-quality of a watch I bought for this price. The watch is stunning and is worth much more than the prices you can find it for today. The ultimate value for money in its category. I hope to have it on my wrist for many years.
Update: I made a small modification to the bracelet (with reservations regarding whether it affects the warranty). I carefully brushed the middle links of the bracelet with the green side of a dish sponge following detailed instructions on YouTube, making them similar to the side links (after, of course, removing it from the watch). Personally, I prefer it this way, and it was the only thing that I had been considering replacing or modifying from the beginning, and I don't regret it. You can see the result in the second photo.
Update 2: Almost a year later, the watch is still incredible!! Its timekeeping remains excellent for its category (-5 to -10 seconds per day). I also made another small "modification" as shown in the latest photos by removing the cyclops (do not do it yourself).
A watch that replicates the design of the Rolex Submariner with great accuracy. For the 118 euros I paid, I consider it an excellent purchase. The build quality is impressive, and seeing and holding the watch gives you the feeling of a much more expensive piece. The rotating bezel is well-mounted on the body of the watch, and the 120 clicks it takes to make a full rotation are satisfying. The bracelet is beautiful and of high quality, with the brushed part contrasting nicely with the polished part, making the watch appear much more valuable than it actually is. The movement is the NH35, a mechanism used by Seiko in entry-level watches priced between 200 and 300 euros. Since I haven't had the watch for long, I can't comment on its accuracy, but reading reports from other users on various forums, it has an acceptable deviation of +/- 15-21 numbers per day for this price range
Some characteristics in case you can't find them elsewhere:
1. Glass crystal
2. Stainless steel everywhere
3. Hacking
4. Hand-Wind
5. Threaded Crown
6. Date (centered and easily visible)
7. Display caseback
The only negatives I see are:
1. The Lume is extremely weak
2. It has a few minor scratches on the bracelet, but nothing too significant
Overall, it is an amazing Value For Money and very aesthetically pleasing. Few watches in its price range offer such quality, and I am sure that for a dive watch under 150 euros, it is in the top 3.
Very good watch. Good quality for the money, but I changed the bracelet and put a higher quality one and the whole watch changed. It became even more sturdy and high-quality
It's worth its money. Very good quality, the bracelet is also good (it has solid links and not pressed metal) and has a good secure clasp. The bezel also has no play, has a good feel, and 120 clicks. The luminescent material is average and lasts a little (compared to Citizen ProMaster, for example). The watch is neither big and heavy nor light and "cheap". It is just right. Nice feeling of quality (for the money, obviously), sits relatively flat on the wrist, and can be comfortably worn with long sleeves and a shirt, even though it is a diving watch. In the water, although it is not certified for diving, I didn't see any problems. You can swim and dive comfortably (up to the 15-20 meters I dive), and after almost three months of almost daily use in the sea, I didn't see any fogging, moisture, or the bezel "hardening" (just make sure to rinse it with tap water after being in the sea). And the last and most important thing, accuracy! The watch is a big surprise in this area. It has a new Seiko movement that is also used in the new economical Seiko watches (Turtle, etc.), the NH35, which has incredible performance for an automatic movement! During the summer, when I wore the watch for over four months continuously, the watch played -1, +2 seconds per day. With the use I make, I noticed that within a week, it didn't deviate more than 10 seconds in any case! For an automatic watch at this price, it is simply super! Of course, I may have been lucky with the "good" part of the production, and other copies may not have the same performance, but I was really impressed! It is highly recommended as a purchase, you won't regret it if you are looking for an economical "diving" watch with an automatic movement, which also has hacking (stops the second hand when setting the time, which is very convenient) and can be wound both automatically (with wrist movements) and with the crown, so even if you don't wear it often, it can still function.
Καλησπέρα. Δεν ξέρω αν μπορείς καθαρίσεις μόνος σου τον μπρασελέ, αλλά δεν μου έχει χρειαστεί εμένα. Μετά από 4 χρόνια που το φοράω, το ρολόι είναι άψογο και λάμπει σαν καινούργιο.
Καλησπέρα. Το μπρασελέ είναι αρκετά καλής ποιότητας και αποτελείται από συμπαγή κομμάτια τα οποία ενώνονται με σφήνες τις οποίες είτε τις αφαιρείτε εσείς με προσοχή (υπάρχουν σχετικά βίντεο στο YouTube), είτε κάποιος εξειδικευμένος τεχνικός για να έρθει στα μέτρα σας. Στη συνέχεια για τυχόν μικρορυθμήσεις υπάρχουν ακόμα τέσσερις τρύπες στο κούμπωμα με τον κλασσικό συνδετήρα. Ελπίζω να βοήθησα.
