That is a nice brown on the Invicta. Maybe shop around for a better price. I've seen the blue one for around $129 recently. Just forget where. :D With the shipping fee I would not go much above $60 for the W10. ;)

The W10 homage is a "Ray on the 'Bay" watch (Kronos - Military Watches Mall), not a bad piece for the price. Mine kept pretty good time but it just wasn't for me so I traded it to a friend in the military for a LE Zippo lighter :D I just got a similar G10 quartz homage for my son from an eBay seller, supposedly an "MWC" but sterile dial. Not bad for a $50 beater, but it isn't near a CWC by a long shot. My son was admiring my issued CWC so I figured what the heck. I'll see how it holds up, he isn't easy on watches! I don't know anything about that Invicta other than it is a bit too big (48mm) for my wrist. I like my Alpha "Planet Ocean" homage, around 40 or so mm, and <$50. Cheers, Griff

That's way too much coin for that Invicta. You would be happy with Ray's or an Orsa but if you must try an Invicta buy one one the secondary market for under $100.

Agreed Paxman - I think everybody cycles through a few Invictas over time - so they are pretty easy to pickup cheap....
