Aldovino's own YouTube productions say no!I just looked and that watch has the same movemant that mine does. It was also billed as a technica. Good thing is its still working fine after 2.5 months. One thing I am suprised with is that its reserve is at least 36 hours when fully wound. So far so good.:D

If it is the same movement as the ST-19 then hand6.gif I have two, one in the Alpha "Newman" (12 hour subdial, I wish it was one of the newer 24 hr ones...) and the Seagull Chinese Air Force chrono. I love em both! They both run well, super smooth action and have been very reliable so far. I don't know how Alpha sells them for $120... Cheers, Griff

Man, the guy who started this post cant feel good about his purchase after reading all the Invicta bashing and to top it off he gets a chinese movement. I used to think snbc was pretty good, i bought a nice Zodiac chrono and hammy chrono from them and was really satisfied. I did overpay for them by about 350.00 but hey, they finance. I also purchased 7 invictas and all of em had some detracting feature. I unloaded all of them on ebay last week. never again!

I would have been pissed but my trusty brothers here on T3, however subtle they were... steered me away from the "SWISS ebauche Techniqa" Thanks to Ken here it is! Attachment: Photo 18.jpg (Downloaded 34 times)
