:D Invicta Prowler. Well one I have been following since I saw one live over a year ago. Finally a price I could live with, albiet still a little more than I really wanted to spend.

First impressions are positive for size, weight, Movement is ETA 2824 and like I have mentioned, the unique way it tells time makes for a one off timepiece and a conversation piece.

Only disappointments are, I expected a little beefier bracelet although this is one with a scissor deployant, and no saphire crystal. Crystal is more of a mental thing since I am pretty easy on my watches.

I'll let a few pics do the rest of the taling......................BTW Ken yes it is an Invicta, but I only own 2 right now, an none are LUPAHS:P



Unique time display as the dial rotates with the hour hand which exposes a different internal part of the movement. The date wheel rotates under the bezel.



Dewitt case homage..................



Opligatory wrist shot.........................



Thanks for looking:)

That's really cool!  Thanks for sharing.

One question . . . how does the Invicta logo and the "Swiss Made" insignia stay in position?  Are they scribed on the backside of the crystal?

thankyou.gif and yes they appear to be on the underside as the crystal is smooth in those spots.
