My wife wanted a beater watch that she could swim with and be light, bla, bla.....so when Shop/Invicta had their recent sale (+20% off coup) I got her an Anatomic watch with a plastic type band....The watch is SWISS MADE...:D and when I got home I inspected it and this is what I found............



The box even had a check list in it that showed someone did an in-depth inspection.....I guess they must neeed glasses.........anyone know of a good sport womens watch?Bouncy.gif

From what I have heard the "detached and floating" seconds hand is one of the most desireable and difficult to attain complications in all of horology.

Just look at that attention to detail!!!

I own a few Invictas and I have never understood why people didnt like them,

Until, last week when one of my Atomics went haywire and on another skeleton I have the second hand just fell off for no reason and I dont even wear it.

Now I know why others dont buy Invicta!

Put me on the List

I would highly recommend getting an Orient from Island Watch. Marc has a $99 special going right now with FREE shipping. You can't beat it. If the watch is a tad heavy, get a rubber strap for it later. The deal is on the home page:
