 My OTV splurge continued into the OGII offerred earlier this month. I've always found this watch handsome... well at least in pix, and threw down a coupon code and VPs to take a look. The good news is it is sized and will set a spell. The bad news... another Slop backorder and long wait, and a one minor detail that just makes this one miss greatness.

Overall I would say this is a very nice watch. There are no QC issues whatsoever in a farily good once over. F&F is very good, and I am the recipient of another very lively Miyota movement. Great size, a lotta presence and a dressy sporty look make for a watch that will get use. Nice screw down crown and fine bezel action. My main complaint is on an otherwise nice bracelet the end links are folded. This just bugs me a bit, but imho keeps the watch from being a great Miyota beater with some good looks. Don't get me wrong... this is a nice heavy watch and looks smashing imho!! I really like the color combo on the dial. I am also bothered by Invicta's unstoppable need to put their name on the case side. PLEEEEZ!!

This one suffers a bit as I was impressed with the Magico OTV I received last week and believe it or not, the Magico seems a bit nicer watch imo.
