Invicta is an American watch company with its headquarters based in Switzerland. It was founded in 1837 by Raphael Picard, a Swiss watchmaker who wanted to place Swiss luxury watches in the hands of the common public at a price they could afford.
The brand was extremely popular until the troubles of the quartz revolution in the 1970s when it almost closed down operations. The Invicta brand was re-established in 1991 and since then has been quite successful in regaining its position in the watch industry. The brand became highly successful after its reestablishment, in fact, it has won design awards for their well-crafted timepieces. Invicta is now focused on large, but well-fitting watches that are prominent for their unique designs.
Invicta’s success began with the Pro Diver series – Invicta Pro Diver timepieces are extremely popular with the consumers although they do have a wide range of models in several other collections. The Aviator Collection and the Speedway Collection or the Angel Collection for women have a number of exclusive pieces which could easily give high-end watches a run for their money. In fact, the brand has more than thirty watch collections featuring a diverse array of timepieces. Invicta has something for everyone.
Invicta produces solidly constructed stylish timepieces that look similar to high end models costing ten times the price. The brand has such an extensive range of timepieces for men and women that finding a favourite may prove to be a challenge. However, my choice was made – the Invicta Automatic Pro Diver 200M Black Dial INV8926OB Men’s Watch.
The Invicta Automatic Pro Diver INV8926OB gives a hint of the Rolex Submariner. I can imagine the envious looks I’d get showing off this fabulous timepiece, and I wasn’t forking out thousands of dollars for it like the original.
While the Pro Diver may not qualify as a high-end luxury watch, it does pack a punch when it comes to the build and material used. This particular model features an NH35A calibre automatic movement, a scratch resistant mineral crystal, stainless steel case, bracelet and black ion-plated unidirectional bezel. It is water resistant to 200m depth. The black dial is clear and legible with luminous hands and markers and a date window at 3 o’clock.
Affordability, quality and good looks along with the Swiss made tag is the unique selling point of the Invicta brand. Invicta has a vast range of watches to choose from and they are hugely affordable giving better value for your money. Whether it is a dress watch or one with multiple features and complications, Invicta has them all.
