Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
Try to use me and fashion in a sentence together, and you'll understand the meaning of gibberish. I have no clue whatsoever, and never will. That's why I like to dress in anything that blends me in with the scenery. People pass by and seconds later wonder if someone just went by, or if it was just the wind. I'm easy to not notice.
No more. Me and my new watch have things to do. We'll go places, leave positive impressions, and move on before people know what hit them. This is one nice watch. It does clash with my preferred approach of invisibility. You can't hide this, or understate it. It's big. And heavy. And solid. But it fits nicely on my small wrist, nonetheless. And comfortably. The thick rubber band will probably last beyond me. So will the watch. The band fits snugly on my wrist if it is secured at the second hole. There is a lot of excess band left, but I can easily secure it with the sliding band strips. The strips are large, and slide easily. The watch is very...Read more

To tell you the truth, even though my SO isn't what you'd call "petit," I thought this watch was going to be somewhat smaller than it turned out to be. However, even though I think it looks rather weird on him, he likes it, so who am I to criticize?
Aesthetics aside, this is a really nice, functional timepiece. For one thing, I was pleased to observe that, unlike its box, the parts for Invicta Men's 1107 Pro Diver are Swiss-made (I couldn't find anything about where it's assembled but I'm willing to give Invicta the benefit of the doubt). And it comes with instructions for setting it up that an owner can actually understand, no small thing in these troubled times of opaque user instructions--a plus!
The Invicta includes a three-function (seconds, 1/10 seconds, minutes) chronograph (i.e., "stopwatch" in plain English), that's non-problematic to use (although it would have been nice if the watch's second hand were a sweep second hand). Given that it's a diver watch,...Read more

Nice watch, but no brighter than other Invictas,

I got this watch a few days ago and thought it was high quality. Rubber band also seems heavy duty. I have one other Invicta which seems a little cheaper in quality. While this watch looks nice in the dark it does not have any special materials to make it glow brighter or longer than my other Invicta. The bezel numbers do glow blue which is nice.
