Looks great O, If any one knows about those it would be you guys. I the case and bracelet fit is very cool on those watches. Is the black PVD or is it an anodize? |

Absolutely my pleasure, Sir. It is one fantastic watch that I parted with having very mixed emotions, but since it got very little wrist, and my buddy was drooling....I had to let it go.............ENJOY, my friend! Hopefully, it fit okay without having to put links back in!!! O.A.

I'm pretty sure I will, what with the fine cheaply made base model Swiss quartz movement, the great 5 to 10 microns of Swiss gold plating which will ultimately wear/scratch off in places giving it that much sought after "2 - tone" look, and hopefully it will have non-matching SS or Rosegold plated crowns and pushers (or maybe some of each) for that eclectic look. But most of all, it will carry with it the thrill, challenge and mystery of getting to deal with Invicta "warranty" customer service should anything ever go wrong (and it will) ................that could provide days or weeks of confrontation and frustration to get me through the day without any positive results whatsoever! How thrilling.................oh, the anticipation! O.A. Gaspar wrote: KenC wrote: Last edited on Sat Jun 17th, 2006 11:26 am by KenC |

Look on the bright side at least there is no self serving, uninformed, and apparently misguided salesman spouting the salient points of the purchase. When the only real salient point is the margin that is being made off of a misrepresented timepiece, that would be reasonable, if it lived up to half of the hype, which it will not do, even if you have the random luck of receiving a "good one". Then the sales person when confronted with the facts, only tries to turn it around and point out your apparent lack of knowledge, because if you were properly informed you would have the same opinion as him. |
