This was posted at that best darn watch place. Personally, I think it was EL, CG, or someone they asked to post it for them. It was that users first and only post, and they are located in Florida, according to their profile.

Hey everybody I just recieved my Tungsten Tide via Fed-Ex today. All I can say is WOW!!! This watch is really amazing, the fit and finish is fantastic. Honestly it rivals some of the high dollar pieces in my collection from the likes of Ulysse Nardin and Breitling. I ordered mine with the black face it plays great off the black ceramic, for anyone on the fence about this watch all I can say is that it is definitely worth the price of admission. Invicta really hit a home run on this one.

Why would Eyal even want to associate his products with UN or Breitling.....after all he is the trend setter in "Whore"ology:P:P:P:D

I'm also sure his Grandma/Invicta taught those other companies how to make watches anyway.

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.

Sounds like a nice fair assessment. I to thought the watch looked great, but not for $600.

Hey Oscar!,

Great to hear from you as well.  I know ,I need to make more time to visit and post.

I only ordered the tungsten diver out of curiosity. I no longer will be Invictamized...lol. The watch is nice, but has some flaws as well. It is a nice concept (tungsten/ceramic) especially since you will never be able to scratch it. I had ordered the black dial and makes a nice contrast to the black ceramic center links and outside bezel. I think the blue dial would also be a great color.

 I do not plan on keeping it. My feelings towards Invicta have not changed and either has Eyal's BS....LOL.

I am shocked and appalled that the Carnival "Queen" was not totally honest about the "Country of Origin" and that Corona Gorda, internationally renown watch host, lied to us....I thought all he did was steal money from people and scam charities for donated goods!

Found a new picture of Pluto's owner......Goofy!
