Latest Screw Up by Invicta....Sheeeesh!!!...and Yes I did buy one!...when will I learn...

Posted: Mon Sep 25, 2006 2:46 pm    Post subject: Just spoke with Eyal about the S1 pro Divers....
Ok, here is an update for everyone on the S1 Pro Diver.

Eyal called me up and wanted to make me aware of a situation about the case backs. The watch was supposed to air in the summer, but when Invicta received their samples the case backs said "100M w/r" instead of the proper 200m as detailed on the dial. So Eyal sent them all back and had them remade.

When they arrived they saw the 200M on there and assumed all was well. Fast forward to now...

The watches sold and shipped and only after this did Eyal find out that NONE of them had been numbered for the LE designation. At this point, nothing can be done about this, but he is REALLY miffed about it. Do realize that Eyal cannot oversee production in person in all of his factories at once and sometimes he doesn't find out about these glitches until after the fact (the same can and has hapenned with other brands), but he tries to always catch these mistakes.

So as it stands... there are still only going to be 3,000 in existence, but they will not be numbered. Eyal stresses that anyone unhappy with this (he understands why) can easily send them back for a refund to ShopNBC. He plans to speak to this on his next show, but wanted everyone to know ASAP which is why I am posting this.
