I still love Invicta, it is just tragic that they do not offer more in the 40-43mm cases. But, alas, they do offer one fine looking one that I've been eying for a while. It is their Slim Portofino 3423 watch from Slop for $110 bucks... I got the silver because I've got a dressy black watch. I have a silver, but not a dressier one, my other Silver watch is the Tissot PRS-516. At 40mm, Swiss Made, Sapphire, Thin Thin movement (although I don't know what it is, probably a Ronda Slimtech 1009 or 1019, whichever it is, it is a 10 jewel quartz!). I'm excited, it should fit in very well with my other fine dress watches... pics will follow, once received!!

BTW, thanks for the welcome back. It really meant a lot to me to see that thread. Shows that Invicta people stick together! I haven't lost my love for Invicta a bit, just not a love of their large sizes.

Nice watch Nick, I like the design on the dial. BTW, everyone appreciates your knowledge and what you share in the forum and who else could we harass about having girly wrists... :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Nice one, nick. But you're a young fella that needs to come play with the big boys and forget about the 40-43mm watches. Keep hanging around here more often and I see Leviathan written all over you.

It's good to see your post (s) Nick

 

[nickdolin]

No girly wrists here at 7.5 inches, just girly tastes I suppose!

Lol.

Cool watch Nick! Enjoy your 1st Invicta.:thumbup1: :001_tongue:

 

[nickdolin]

Ah, only 1st after my more discriminating tastes kicked in! Invicta is an awesome value who makes some of the best looking watches out there.

Great looking watch! Too small for a manly man such as myself, but nice.:laugh:

 

[nickdolin]
