This review is from: Invicta Men's 9223 Speedway Collection Chronograph S Series Watch (Watch)
Just received this stunning Invicta Speedway chronograph today, and I must say that I'm genuinely impressed. This black-faced watch crafted in solid stainless steel has exceeded my expectations for any timepiece at the $130 price point. For starters, the watch comes housed in a bright yellow box with black lettering and logo on the top. Once open, the Speedway greets you while wrapped around a velvet-like pillow of the same case color (real classy).
Finding the owner's manual and warranty papers is kinda tricky...they are hidden behind the 'ceiling' panel of the box. The manual instructions are broad, but I didn't have any problems getting the watch started....ON WITH THE WATCH!!!
The Speedway's heft is good...does not feel cheap or loose at all. You can really feel the weight of the center-piece. The links are solid and brushed stainless steel, while the center has a polished effect. The clasp locks securely and has no obvious weaknesses.

This review is from: Invicta Men's 9223 Speedway Collection Chronograph S Series Watch (Watch)
I really wanted to like this watch, but instead, I'm disappointed. I had a list of features I wanted and I'll go through those as a guide for others with my reaction on each.
1. Good looking? Definitely! As noted by other reviewers, there is a strong resemblance to one of the Rolex models. I would add that it also is very reminiscent of the Omega Speedmaster. This model's looks are what drew me to it in the first place. Not too thrilled about the radiating lines on the face however -- they detract from the classic look of the watch.
2. Solid construction? Yes. Band and case are substantial and the watch has a good weight -- it "feels" like a significantly more expensive watch.
3. Chronograph? Here's where it all falls apart. The Speedway has what I would characterize as a "partial chronograph feature". It looks like a full-featured chronograph -- start and stop buttons, sweep second hand, and 3 sub-dials on its face. Problem is, it's only...Read more

Exquisite watch!,

Wow! This watch is absolutely beautiful. It is packaged in a great yellow box and as soon as you take the watch out of the box, your just amazed by the look and feel. I bought this for my husband for Valentine's Day, unsure if he would like it as he is very picky about gifts, especially watches, and he loved it. We actually took it to a jeweler to get a couple of links taken out for him and the jeweler told us it looked exactly like a Rolex Daytona and wanted to know where I bought it because Invicta's are so hard to find. It truly is a wonderful watch.
