Hahaha! Thanks! I know...maybe, just maybe, I may have to shine it up to a mirror finish, if only to buff it down to a nice "satin" finish. I agree, the price range is nice and yes, it certainly looks better in my opinion than the pro diver collection. The Bezel is uni directional. It looks fixed. But it actually turns!! ;-)  I am excited about this watch. I like the shape and the dial. The numbers have that cool retro look as well. I may open it up and back out the invicta logo etc. Just to give the dial a cleaner look. Pictures to come once it arrives!

As per ShopNBC specs, the bezel does turn. See bezel position in this pic.

They got me too... I saw it...I liked it...It was orange...I bought it using one of the promo codes...Thank you e. avery!! I am interested to see what I get. I do like the look and thought I might as well give a lesser Invicta a try... Should go nice with the OM I just ordered and my other orangies provided nothing is askew!!!

Hey Gaspar, you know with certain brands, one must employ the eagle eye.

Hey Pax, the orange is a nice choice. I was tempted but my more conservative "boring" side kicked in and I settled on the black dial.  Let's cross our fingers. The watch itself is very nice. I think we made a clever choice on this Triumph model. I would have been tempted even at $200. So for $99 it is a given. Nice looking watch, especially during the live shows, on the wrist, you get to see the mass. It is 14mm thick at least. And very obviously heavy in a good way. The all solid bracelet is nice too. Throw in a Miyota automatic and for the $99 it is definitely worth a gamble.  I am actually more excited about this Invicta, than I am about my soon to arrive Seiko Samurai. :?
