The Invicta Diver watches simply contains a series of tool watches. The phrase “tool watch” was originally coined to describe the watches that served as the tools to accomplish specific tasks such as divers watch with a rotatable bezel and a high resistance to pressure that is designed to be used underwater. In the beginning, the diver watches were the pure tools: the essential swimming buddies that helped keep the divers on time and hence, well, alive. While today these are the fashion statements, the conversation pieces and the rugged companions for a trip to the beach or the pool.
The Invicta brand added a chronograph to the line up. It was a timepiece that instantly caught my eye and the one I knew, I want to review. Here are my impressions off the Invicta Pro Diver watch. The Invicta Pro Diver Watch is in gear for a new generation of fans. The Invicta Pro Diver Watch may not have been on the moon, but it is nevertheless a thoroughly convincing watch, design is elegant and its movement’s technology can be described as ingenious without unduly raising the price.
Although Invicta prides itself of its Swiss heritage but not all of its watches are Swiss inside. In fact, while a substantial portion of their manufacturing still occurs in Switzerland, many of their watches originate in Asia. They do have a line specifically deemed Swiss Made. Many of the Pro Diver watches fall into this collection of theirs but not all.
All the above mentioned qualities are housed in a very neatly crafted stainless-steel case with a stainless-steel bezel also, and two curved sapphire crystals. The entire ensemble is in very reasonable price. Regarding the case, this is a monster of a timepiece for a size point of view and in profile, it suitably brings to mind a submersible of some kind. At 40milimeters case diameter, it’s got the heft you would expect of a steel watch of this girth, the wrist presence is impressive and not at all subtle.
It stands proportionally on the wrist at a 12.5 millimeter thickness. And yet, it never strained against any of my shirt cuffs and never felt like it was dragging my forearm down, maybe it’s the rubber strap, maybe it’s how that curved convex case back nestles oh-so-naturally into. The subtle indentation of the wrist, but once you start wearing this watch it begins to feel like a part of you.
Diver Watches
Invicta’s Diver watches have actually earned a reputation for the value proposition to its time pieces. In terms of value, they certainly produce most of the affordable watches in the market in styles that, at least at superficial glance, would not look out of place next to an Omega or Rolex.
The unidirectional rotating diver’s bezel ratchets smoothly and audibly to set dive time and is extremely easy to grip. The unidirectional rotating bezel insert has a gleaming, polished finish that makes it appear as if it’s an extension of the subtly convex sapphire crystal. Only at the tail end of my review period did it occur to me that perhaps a more matte finish to the bezel would have been more preferable, and perhaps more utilitarian for a diver. At this point, we do not know, but appreciated the louche of luxury that the polished stainless-steel finish lent the piece.
Watch Chronograph
Operating the chronograph is a tactile joy. The pushes are rounded and respond to soft but deliberate pressure from a fingertip. The screw-down crown which helps ensure its titanic timepiece’s impressible water- resistance to 200 meter in Invicta Pro Diver Quartz watch — pulls out to two positions. Moreover, if you look for a fly in the ointment regarding the high quality then you will find the screw down crown that allow easy adjustment. Simply, you can unscrew the crown, and then pull it out to the first position to adjust the date, then pull it out to the second position to adjust the time. Once done, push the crown in two positions and the screw it back in. This last step is really important one to ensure that the crown is water tight. If you do not ensure it fully, then your watch can flood.
Anyways, the most important thing is, it can be taken to much depth, and has no problem which makes it really suitable for diving. Due to this, screw-down crown, this watch has also achieved pressure-resistance.

Invicta Watches Review
Invicta Men’S Pro Diver Qyartz Two Tone Watch
The Invicta Men’s Pro Diver Quartz Watch, two tone, 22 has a blue dial which is a thinly detailed dial and it definitely adds something to its beauty. It also has a little hammer head shark on the dial and another on the rotating bezel is a cool little touch indeed. There are some little waves stamped around the edge of the dial also, that are particularly nice. They are usually of the same colour as the dial so the dial and these do not stand out and do not look gaudy.
Its water resistance depth is 100 meters which is a little less than the other models of Invicta’s Pro Diver watches.
The case diameter is a little bit more that is 43 millimeters. Further, the thickness of the case is 12 millimeters. This thin case on a big dial give it a sleek, elegant and classy look overall. The band length is of men’s standard which can be adjusted just by removing two or three links as per required which can be done very easily. The shark on the bezel and on the dial is simply charming!
The colours of Invicta’ Pro Diver watches of course, betray that this is an inexpensive watch.
The Men’S Pro Diver Gold
The Men’s Pro Diver 44 mm Gold Tone model is such a classy watch to wear. Its beauty can’t be neglected anyways. I must say, it should be bought for fancy dinner dates just because it is a very luxurious looking watch.
It has a gold tone stainless steel band, which is 220 mm L× 22 mm N. Band is adjustable by adding or removing a few links, folded over safety clasp. A loud wrist chain with no weight to it.
The case is gold tone stainless steel which is measured as 44 mm diameter × 14.7 mm thick, and it feels really solid indistinctly from the subject to slightly fogging mineral glass.
It has a mineral crystal, pull or push crown and a stationary stainless steel bezel. The water resistance depth of this model is 200 meter which is really a very suitable feature for professional marine activity and water sports along with diving.
A better addition to this model are its luminous hands which make the dial easy to read and the watch looks pretty and gorgeous overall.
The Men’S Pro Diver Automatic Model
The Man’s Pro Diver 40 millimetres stainless steel Automatic Model is relatively a simple yet elegant model.
It has a black dial with luminous hands and hour markers. These luminous hands and markers make the dial pretty obvious and easy to read also. Moreover, this feature of the watch also looks much attractive thus enhancing the beauty of the watch.
The Men Pro Diver’s band is also stainless steel, with the measurements of 210 mm L × 20 mm W. The water resistance depth of this particular model is also 200 meter.
It is an automatic model and the automatic watches are made up of about 130 or more parts that work together to tell time. The screw-down crown helps prevent water infiltration which is most common in Invicta’s Diver Models.
This model has a bold design, with a poised and calm ambience that is sure to have you looking twice. This is least expensive and easily the best.
These watches give outstanding land or sea adventures. These automatic watches from Invicta’s Pro Diver series, place a large , round , stainless steel case on a robust band. Few links of the band can be removed easily if you want to adjust it according to the size of your wrist.
The dial is designed for quick and easy read off. The dial is also cased with a resilient mineral crystal and is framed in a unidirectional rotating steel bezel. This combination of a beautiful dial and the bezel make it really elegant.
The Invicta Pro Diver Watches send up a flare for those who look to be defined by how wisely they spend not by how much they spend. It litterly takes guts and courage of your convictions to make these watches much affordable for everyone who appreciates them.
Invicta’s watches have loud wrist chain with no weight to it. The weight might be a tad more than the typical stainless steel watch but its probably the same.
Invicta’s watches also contain calendar date which is an important addition to its features. These Invicta’s Pro Diver watches are offered for extremely small sums. Invicta’s watches can easily be attributed as the cheaper version of Rolex Watches because of there elegancy, design and functioning as the diver watches. For the price paid, these watches are actually fantastic. These are the solid watches and absolutely gorgeous too.
The only lacking of the watches that I have noticed to much extent is that these Invicta Pro Diver watches do not have a lume (glow in the dark) feature. The dial mostly has white hour dots around it that look like they should glow but after exposing the watch under a light for a bit and taking it back into a dark room, nothing happens regarding the glow.
There are some questions regarding the manufacturers and the watches. I am going to answer these three most frequently asked questions here:

Do Invicta stores offer any kind of battery services at their location?
