A fossil big tick ss with ss bracelet and an animated representation of a dancing robot on the dial( you can turn him off and then he just stands in the center of the dial)The case is almost square the markers are all silver the only lume is on the minute and hour hands ( there is no second hand)The clasp is double locking and the watch is wr to 50 meters.It cost approx $12:50 plus tax at the Fossil outlet in Eden prairie Wisconson. It was a two for $24:99 deal so I bought a similiar one with a larger face for my father.The actual dial is round case dimensions are 35 w by 42 L the larger watch is 38w by 50L. large face is 32mm small face is 30mm diameter.Some good deals are available at Fossil company stores.I also bought a watch at Burlington Coat factory at Gurnee mills and a grosgrain  ribbon watchband at the Brooks brothers outlet  in Eden prairie. At 16 mm it is too small for me ( i made a mistake)and 7 grain bread at Pepperidge farm( they remembered i like bread!) Tny 795 maybe you should check out a Brooks Brothers for watchbands.

Actually, there are a few Invicta's that are very worthwhile if purchased at the right price point.  I have both the Black dial and Lume dial of the Invicta SS Military watch with "solid" Miyota 8215 mov't.  I had an 8924ob which I just gave to my brother, both the silver dial 2014 and the black dial 2015 and a silver dial (original) Executive..............I shall not even mention my LUPAH!subtlelaugh.gif 

The Military's were purchased for $50 each with coupon, the 8926 at $100 and the rest, preowned in LNIB condition for under $180.
