First of All....WTH Have You Been csp and Good to See You Buddy
I was tempted to Buy a Tungsten Diver...No not Really :P,but I'm Glad to hear an Honest Opinion from a Respected WIS who Knows Watches ...TY,csp and Congrats on Your Invicta ...Keep us in the Loop Over the Long Haul if You Decide to Keep It 
Hi everyone:
I will give you my impression of the Tungsten Diver since I received it today.
First I have to say that I do not buy invicta's anymore ,but was interested to see this in person. Since they had free shipping at the time, I fiqure why not.
The first problem I noticed was the bezel. It has approx 4mm play in it. It feels very loose. The fit and finish is very good except for the underside of the case which has a matt milled look. Not quite sure why this was produced this way.
the other thing that I noticed is that cheesy white plastic retainer housing the movement. Seems to be an Invicta trademark. The dial states Swiss Mov't, So The BS that eyal was tougting duriing the airing of this watch as being completely Swiss Made is you guessed it ......BS!.
It is a nice looking watch that has that OG textured dial and a very unique tone to the Tungsten, but he jury is still out if this is worth the $600 price that it was offered at. Comparing this to a Breitling or a UN is ridiculous. I had set it to the atomic clock after I received it and it is running +2min already.
