HI GUYS, I JUST WANTED TO EXPRESS HOW I FEEL MY MY AUSSIE DIVER...

EACH DAY I WONDER WHY ROLEX/TAG/OMEGA ARE SO EXPENSIVE WHEN I HOLD THIS WATCH.

I MEAN, I GET A SAPPHIRE CRYSTAL, GREAT FIT AND FINISH, EXCELLENT-SUPER-ACCURATE-DURABLE JAPANESE MOVEMENT, GOOD LOOKING DESIGN, ALL FOR JUST $250 :scared::scared:

INFO: ALL THE MIYOTAS I OWN, ARE MORE ACCURATE THAN MY SWISS MOVTS. I DONT LIKE THE SWISS MOVT INVICTAS, CUZ IMO, MIYOTA IS BETTER THAN ANY SWISS MOVT, BASED ON MY EXPERIENCE.

AND THEN I HOLD MY DAYTONA, $12,000, WOW

, OK ITS A ROLEX, AND EVERYONE SAYS, ''WOW, THATS A ROLEX'' BUT... [I STILL LOVE MY ROLEX AND WILL ALWAYS BE MY GRAIL]

I WONT SAY ANYMORE, I'LL LET THE PICS SPEAK THEMSELVES.

THE WHITE MOP IS HANDSOME

THE EMBOSSED BEZEL IS SUPERB.

THE ROMAN SILVER NUMBERS ARE GORGEOUS.

THE BIG CROWN AND THE COIN EDGE BEZEL ARE AWESOME

COOL CASEBACK SHOWING THE BEST MOVEMENT

THE NEW PRO DIVER LOGO IS CUTE, NOTE THE GOOD QUALITY OF THE PRINTING

EXCELLENT FIT & FINISH ALL AROUND.

Hey I got the same white dial and also the black dial when they were an otv. I could not agree with you more, I love both of them and frequently get compliments on both.

That is a most beautiful watch at any price.

I'm searching for a round watch that has Roman numerals like that one--not overly big, all numbers are represented and all the same size.

The dial is beautiful, as well.

A watch like that and the 8926, for that matter, do make you wonder about Rolex and the other prestige brands and whether or not what they offer is worth the price.

Great

I own four myself and have been beating the drum for this watch since I first received it. I know how some feel about Invicta but if you missed out on this one you truly missed a beautiful build. I also have to say that I can agree with you on the movement. Thank you for sharing this with all. I hope it will open others to a great experience.

Very nice watch Wilf, glad to see you liking Invicta! They do make some nice watches don't they? I also really like the Myiota movements.

Hhee, I Love My Daytona And Always Will Be My Grail, But When I Want To Wear A Watch That Goes With My Age [23] I Wear My Big Invicta Ss Watches.

You are making me regret I didn't get one, wilf. Glad to have you back as an Invicta fan.

I love it. Beautiful watch at a great price. I am really glad that they stuck with the coined bezel on this one. I love the roman numerals as well. The little that stands out to me though is the little lume dots at each hour mark. Great buy. :thumbup1:

That is a great looking watch wilfreb. Invicta does a real good job with mother-of-pearl dials IMHO. :thumbup1:

I find Myiota movements dependable and reasonably accurate. My own experience is ETA movements are a bit more accurate and certainly smoother.

The Aussie Pro Diver is a solid watch, but I honestly don't think it's in the Omega class in terms of fit and finish and it doesn't measure up to Invicta's own Reserve line. I'd pick a Seiko 6R15 diver over the Aussie, based on quality not looks, and a Grovana diver as well.

But there's no denying the Aussie is handsome! However, I sold off my black/black version because I kept worrying about scratching the finish. It never happened, but it was making me nuts!
