User Reviews about Invicta Men's Pro Diver Collection Automatic Watch
I chose the Invicta 8926 because after years of battery operated quartz watches I wanted to try an automatic movement and see how I liked it - at less than $70 and with mostly positive reviews, the 8926 seems like the best way to do that. I've used the watch for 6 months and I'm extremely happy with it - like most people, it seems I got one of the good ones.
The 8926 looks and feels beautiful, and after 6 months of daily wear there are still no scratches in the stainless steel or the face (but I'm not rough on my watches). The bracelet is heavy but very comfortable, and I easily adjusted it to fit my wrist with a pin remover (also purchased on Amazon).
Right out of the box, the watch gained 6 to 7 seconds a day - not great accuracy, but about what I was expecting and easily something I could live with. But after a few months it seemed to be keeping better time - and when I rechecked the accuracy, it's now consistently only losing 1 second a day. For a watch that looks this good, feels this comfortable and cost less than $70, that's outstanding value.
Only a few minor complaints - the second hand sweep is not as smooth as a Swiss movement, but that doesn't affect the function of the watch. The second hand doesn't stop when you adjust the time, so synching the time exactly to the second is not easy (not a big concern for me, I don't need to know the time to the nearest second). Also, as others have noted, the bezel does not turn very easily, but I just leave it in the 12 o'clock position anyway.
As I said, I purchased this Invicta as a way to try out an automatic watch - I am so satisfied with my 8926 that I expect it to be my everyday watch for quite a while. -- Excellent value for first automatic watch
Excellent watch.
Buyers Read the Manual. Specially first page!!
Mine started condensation after a month. NEVER LEFT THE CROWN OPEN.!!!
"After setting the watch the crown must be then pushed and screwed back in tightly".
-- Solid Construction Nice Design, (Carefull with the Screw Down Crown)
Fantastic value for money would be the best way to describe this. Bang for your buck wise, it'd be hard pressed to be beaten
Very close in appearance to a Rolex Submariner, but unique enough to want to show it off
5 stars -- Invicta 8926a
