Invicta Men’s Pro Diver Quartz Watch with Stainless Steel Strap by Invicta

I recently purchased the Invicta Men’s Pro Diver Quartz Watch (Model: 26972) with the stainless steel strap in two-tone, and I’m beyond happy with it! Here’s why I think it’s a fantastic watch:

Pros:
Stunning Design: The two-tone stainless steel strap gives the watch a sleek, sophisticated look that easily transitions from casual to formal wear. It’s eye-catching but not too flashy, making it perfect for everyday use or special occasions.

High-Quality Build: The watch feels solid and durable. The stainless steel construction is robust, and the overall design exudes a premium feel. It’s clear that Invicta pays attention to the quality of their materials.

Accurate Quartz Movement: The watch keeps great time, thanks to the reliable quartz movement. I’ve had no issues with accuracy, and it’s very low-maintenance—just a simple battery-powered watch that works perfectly.

Comfortable Fit: The stainless steel strap is comfortable, and the design ensures a good fit on my wrist. It doesn’t feel too heavy, and I’ve been able to wear it all day without any discomfort.

Great Value for the Price: Considering the brand reputation and the quality of the watch, the price is very reasonable. It offers the look and feel of a high-end watch without the hefty price tag.

3-Year Warranty: The 3-year warranty adds extra peace of mind, knowing that the watch is covered for any issues. It’s always reassuring when a brand stands behind its product with a solid warranty.

Cons:
A Bit Bulky for Smaller Wrists: If you have a smaller wrist, the size of the watch might feel a little bulky. While it looks great, it may not be the best fit for those who prefer a more compact, lightweight timepiece.
Final Thoughts:
The Invicta Men’s Pro Diver Quartz Watch is a fantastic value for the price. It’s stylish, well-built, and reliable, with a great reputation behind the Invicta brand. The design is sleek, and it’s versatile enough to wear for various occasions. With the added benefit of a 3-year warranty, this watch offers excellent peace of mind and durability. If you’re looking for a quality, stylish watch at an affordable price, this is a great option! Highly recommend it.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:
I volunteer at the National Seashore 2 to 5 days a week during sea turtle nesting season. I needed a new dive watch that could withstand the sand and occasional sea water exposure. This watch is very close to the Fossil watch I needed to replace (my husband broke it while trying to replace the battery.)
This watch is affordable,  beautiful,  and and sturdy enough to hold up in the elements. 
I had another volunteer ask me if it was a Rolex, lol!  She told me she worked for decades in a high end jewelry store and specialized in Rolex and other top watch brands. She couldn’t tell the difference until she got a closer look. 
Although it’s technically a men’s watch, I love the weight of it and the large watch face. It’s a good looking watch for men and women. 

Very nice watch.Not too big but still not too small.

Very good and beautiful watch. The price is great and sometimes people ask me if is a Rolex.

I received the Invicta Pro Diver watch yesterday. I was pretty impressed by the fit and finish. The weight is a good weight, about the same as my Rolex Submariner, about 145 grams, if I recall. Really a pretty impressive knockoff. I’ve tried other Invicta watches and they were just too big, heavy and bulky. This one is nice.

NOTE: THIS WATCH DID NOT COME WITH INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO SHORTEN THE BRACELET!!! I Googled it and it looked simple BUT IT IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT and I could not do it myself. A Rolex band has screws and is much, much simpler to adjust, even for the average guy with the correct small screw driver

I have a friend who is a watch maker/broker so I took it to him to have the bracelet resized. IT TOOK HIM OVER AN HOUR TO REMOVE TWO LINKS on this bracelet. He bent three of his tools trying to get the pins out. I was worried that he’d would not be successful, but in the end he was. I watched him wrestle with it, curse at it, try pin pushers, punches, everything you could name. Taking links out of this bracelet was a freakin’ ordeal! If I had to pay for watch repair services for this a stranger would have charged me more than I paid for the watch. I guess you get what you pay for.

After about 45 minutes I was about to declare the watch defective and return it. But in the end he was successful. But perhaps this watch bracelet IS defective? It should not have been that difficult for a pro and should have had instructions in the first place. You’ve been warned.

Now that the bracelet issue is settles, I suspect it will serve me well. Looks like a Rolex Submariner but without the Rolex name, cost and presumably quality. I just wanted a watch that didn’t have “name bling” but was still a classy looking watch. Would I recommend it? Not with the bracelet issue that I had to go through. If I could do half stars I’d give it 3.5 stars for the excruciatingly painful bracelet resizing. But it got 4 stars for everything else. The price certainly can’t be beaten.
