Those that might be looking for an inexpensive solid diver this might be a real winner........though its a bit of every diver out there here are some points that I think make it a STEALThumbsUp02.gif

The dial and hands and bezel are Chase durer abyss.... the case, dare I say Orisish or at the very least Invicta Scuba, notice the Oris style bracelet with a scissor deployant..usually found on a much more expensive watch. Very solid looking, 6 screws to the caseback? nice touch.

Personally I think this is an Invicta Scuba rebadged, and at $150 with the reliable Miyota a bargain.

Just trying to keep you all enabled.

I must say, I have to agree with you, it looks like a good value. Anybody have a comment on the Brand?

 Wow, that's most certainly a mix/hybrid  of some good watches and quite a steal

Decent brand, been around for a few years. Their big discovery was getting on the shopping channels. Nice people; the company is in California, they also do the Corvette line of watches that I used to carry. Alot of fashion watches, but they do come up with many good styles, like this beauty that Tony has found.

Thanks-
Marc

Not a bad looking watch at all.

I just can't get past the name. (I am very shallow)

 

At least they lost the "Beverly Hils"

     Dangit !!!!  I was thinking the same thing!!!! I'm sitting here looking at my Invicta Scuba trying to figure out how to replace the broken clasp and I came across this thread .  That's a rebadged Scuba with a 21j movement instead of 25 and a different bezel .  Then I thought of the Invicta Amazon Sport which is a ripoff of the Zeno Basel Airplane Diver.  A good ripoff that I might have to get but still a ripoff.
