    easiest is shopnbc (though I HATE them, had a bad experience couple yrs ago). I have an acquaintance who lives in Hollywood FL is there an outlet there?
    The well documented CS problems at Invicta are "in house" problems. So, no matter where you purchase your watch you would be dealing with the same CS at Invicta. Some have indeed had no problems but many have had many problems. Mostly what you see posted in the negative about it is the length of time it takes to get your watch back after sending it off. There have been several reports of it taking months to get your watch back.

    I have had the back and the crystal off of my 8926,and reassembled without having it pressure tested. I know that I'm taking my chances, but I've been swimming with it all spring and summer and it has not had a leak yet.
