The dial is capped with a resilient mineral crystal and framed by a blue unidirectional rotating steel bezel with goldtone markings and coin edge detailing.

I got this watch for an anniversary present. I am in love with it's beauty and style, and it keeps good time if you wear it everyday.
By Mark S (Portland, Oregon)
Just as advertised. The reviews were spot on. This watch looks like a thousand dollar watch. Runs beautiful. Keeps excellent time and hasn't stopped, even after leaving sit for 3 days. A real gem.

I have craved for years the Rolex of similar (almost identical) look, but would NEVER spend thousands on a watch. I have owned Rolex watches for many years and they do not keep accurate time, I once lost one off a sailboat when the clasp burst open on mild impact (no safety clasp design) and...servicing the watch costs hundreds of dollars. The Invicta is handsome, looks expensive, keeps time satisfactorily and is a great price. What a great find!
When I broke the crystal (my fault) it was cheaper and faster to take it to a local watch repair than to ship back to Invicta and wait ?months for return. And, as others have commented, local jeweler will adjust the band for negligible cost.
Buy the color/model you like, you won't be sorry.

This watch is very elegant. It has a very high quality finish and gets loads of attention. The 23k Gold Plating is polished to a mirror finish and makes the watch look more expensive than it is. If I didn't know what it cost and someone told me it cost over $1,000, I would believe them. Very easy to wind or set the time and date. I really like the open back feature on this model. I will be buying more Invicta watches as my first has made quite an impression on me. My boss has a Rolex Submariner, but my Invicta 8928OB looks just as good. Be sure to buy this old Coin Bezel style as the new style is not nearly as attractive.

I like this watch. Other positive reviews are right on the mark so I won't rehash them, but I will note a couple of things that might be of interest to potential buyers.
The first is that this is a throwback watch. It goes to the days before batteries when watches had mainsprings and had to be wound every day. the automatic winding was an innovation to reduce or eliminate this necessity.
So as some have pointed out it is less accurate than electronic quartz watches. That's just the nature of this type of movement. Shouldn't be a deal breaker unless you are obsessed on accuracy. Just set it once a week or so.
You will see reviews that indicate you might want to purchase a watch winder. In fact the Invicta instruction booklet recommends a watch winder box. I beg to differ. This watch sells in the vicinity of $100. If you check the prices of watch winders you will see that the starting price is around $40 and goes well past the cost of the watch itself.
Do you want to pay half the price of the watch for an automatic winder? I didn't think so. So here's the deal, you can wind this watch up everyday just like all the old time watches. I wind it for about 60 seconds a day and it never stops. I do this because I don't produce enough daily motion (couch potato) to keep it running.
Why does Invicta recommend a winder? Simple. This is a waterproof watch and the stem is threaded and must be kept snugged down to maintain the waterproof integrity. Since the stem is spring mounted it takes some pressure on the threads to do this. So if you unwind the stem over and over you will eventually either strip or wear out the threads.
NOW IF YOU ARE GOING TO SWIM FREQUENTLY OR DIVE, THEN DON'T TAKE THIS ADVICE. YOU WILL NEED A WATCH WINDER BOX.
But if you don't need the waterproof aspect then just unwind the stem, release the pressure, wind the watch, and JUST LEAVE THE STEM OUT. In other words don't screw the stem back on.
Now one word of caution. On old windup watches you wound the stem until it stopped. This kept you from overwinding the mainspring. I don't know if this watch has a stop. Probably not. So be careful about too much winding. You can figure out how much you need based on the overall wrist motion you achieve for automatic winding.
My other advice, if you have good eyesight, have a little patience, and are not a type A personality, is to purchase the Heavy Duty Watch Band Tool Link Pin Remover for about $3.75. I got my wife a companion watch and successfully removed several links from both watches with no problem. You are going to have to either do this yourself or go get someone to do it for you. That is unless you want to use the watch as a bracelet. I have known a couple of folks that did this with genuine Rolex watches. They didn't want to remove the gold links & maybe lose them. Or maybe it was a style issue.
Anyway that's my 2 cents. All the good things that have been said about the watch I give a ditto to. The watch is gaudy & it will get noticed. The folks a table away in the restaurant will suppose it's a Rolex.
