There is some good in them. A $50 dollar auto Inslicta is great for mowing the lawn, changing motorcycle tires, pool diving, reef diving, cliff diving, kite flying, knife fighting, and midget tossing, in short, any activity where there is the SLIGHTEST danger of one of my nice watches getting hurt, scratched, dinged, or broke, an Invicta comes in handy, you have to admit that. I wont wear my Pan underwater, hell, I wont wear my Cuda underwater, but I WILL wear that Infixta all day long in the water, and not give a poop about it. So I still believe they are not entirely useless. AND. they dont look THAT bad. But I will NOT pay more than 75 for one. and I believe that if you can pick up a 50 dollar watch, that does EXACTLY what I need it to do, (tell decent time in hazardous situations, ) then what is the problem with that? I wont pay ridiculous money for them, I wont show them off, I will nod and smile and drool when a Non WIS compliments them. But if it breaks. well. it was 50 bucks. and I think EVERYONE on here has at least ..5? watches? So what that to us? nada. Im not extolling them, nor defending them. But if i have a race, or a dive or a bike ride or a jog or a shootout, I am reaching for that Invicta, LONG before I even think about reaching for my Seikos,or Benarus, or Orsa or Panerai  or ANYTHING else for that matter. I Just like the rest TOO much. Intrictya? Alive or dead, makes no difference to me. (ok, I really DO like my Corduba, Shoot me)
