Beautiful and Unusual Watch,

This review is from: Invicta Men's 9329 Speedway Collection Chronograph S Watch (Watch)
I own over a dozen timepieces that include Seiko, Bulova, Citizen, and Invicta. I own no less than 5 Invictas and they all have performed flawlessly. While I agree with the common thought that the manufactured suggested retail price of Invictas is someone inflated the prices found on Amazon for these watches are well below this and the timepieces are well worth the greatly reduced price. One thing for sure, Invicta watches look like they would cost well above the MSRP and therefore you you get one and wear it you will be well pleased. The Invicta Speedway Collection and specifically this watch, the 9329 compares in looks with the Rolex Daytona that goes for 8K to 11K.
One of the other reviewers stated he could not pull out the stem to set the watch. The stem and the pushers on these speedway additions are of a screw down type. In short, the stem and pushers are screwed down into the bezel for water proofing. To operate the stem and pushers you must first un-screw (turn...Read more

This review is from: Invicta Men's 9329 Speedway Collection Chronograph S Watch (Watch)
Just got this watch in the mail. For a $100 plus dollar watch, the UPS guy just left it dead center in front of my Apt door. hmmmm. Good thing i have decent neihbors. Anyways, theres plenty other reviews on the longitivity and durability of this and other Invictas so I'll not comment on that since I just got it. First off, this watch is WAAAYYY nicer looking in person than in the pic. In fact, I think mine might be a little different. The only thing different on mine is that unlike the stock pic and the user's pic where the ring around the chronographs are blue, mine are a brushed chrome. I like that ALOT better, it adds a very classy touch. I looked on the inner band that connects to the watch case, it says 07/06. So i'm guessing my watch was manufactured July of 06'. Hmmm. Something to keep in mind.
Anyways, I was worried that everything would blend into each other and be ilegible according to the stock pics. I was dead wrong. Everything is very clearly decernable and the...Read more

screw down crown explained,

This review is from: Invicta Men's 9329 Speedway Collection Chronograph S Watch (Watch)
I do not own this version, but another Invicta, as well as other watches with screw down crowns. What this means is you cannot pull out the crown without unscrewing it, which is done counter clockwise. It will then pop out. Then you push the crown in and screw it clockwise with gentle inward pressure to screw it down.
There is some discussion of the proper care while using the crown on the web. Apparently this is the area where you have the greatest potential to do damage to your watch, any watch. So be gentle, especially when setting the time, date, etc. With most watches you shouldn't do this near midnight. And perhaps do a search on the Web.
The Invicta instruction booklets are completely generic, so it is not surprising that some people might be confused.
