Cool watch, bad support,
When I received this watch and I tried the stopwatch function, I thought it may be broken because the 1/10 sec counter hand would not move and the center stop-second hand would not return to its 0 position when the stopwatch was reset. Trying to correct the misalignment using the procedure explained at pages 26-27 of the manual didn’t work either.
Trying to get support from Invicta was a waste of time. There is no way you can get in touch with a human being to ask questions. You can only register the warranty and file a service case. First problem, the on-line form doesn’t have enough space to explain an issue different from the predefined ones. Second, filing a case will only allow you to mail the watch to Invicta for repair at your own expenses and taking 6-8 weeks, which is absurd when you only need to ask for instructions!
I have since learned that the 1/10 counter is only supposed to move when the stopwatch is stopped not while it is running, even though this behavior is not specified in the manual.
I also figured out that the manual is completely wrong about the corrective move and the procedure is quite different:
- when the crown is in position 1 (date setting), you can adjust the minute counter hand using the A button and the stop-second hand using the B button
- when the crown is in position 2 (time setting), you can adjust the 1/10 sec counter hand using the A button
No need to activate the corrective mode in position 2 pressing both buttons for 2 seconds or to press the B button to change hand. The stop-second hand also does not rotate since there is no activation.
So in the end, 5 stars for the watch and 2 stars for Invicta.
The watch itself is lighter on the wrist than you would expect from a watch this chunky. The rubber strap is wide but not too long (so there is almost none sticking out) and the watch actually wears smaller than it looks. It also sit comfortably on the wrist so even people with wrists under 7″ can wear it if they enjoy big watches. You can even sleep wearing it without any discomfort.

|CHRONOGRAPH DOES NOT WORK,
Be careful when you buy an Invicta watch. I purchased this watch in Oct 2009 and had to send it to invicta for repair within two months. Let me tell you that their customer service is horrible. So if you do decide to buy this watch, just know you have been warned. I am still waiting to get my watch back and at this point I just want my money back. I will never recommend the Invicta brand to anyone.

|Piece of junk, poor customer service,
I bought this watch as a birthday present to myself because I plan on doing some world traveling and it looked very durable. I was wrong, literally the fourth or fifth time I wore the watch I was sitting at the dinner table and the watch fell completely off my wrist because the screw that holds the pin in came loose. I couldnt find the screw so I called Invicta to order another one. They said it could take up to 90 days before I should expect it. So I’m stuck with an expensive watch that I can’t wear for three months. On the other hand, it is a very good looking watch, just wish I could wear it…
