I rocked this Invicta as when fishing or other outdoor activity. worked well, never any issues. Lost it working in the yard though. It not high class or whatever you wanna call it, buts its a good watch to beat up.


Now im sporting a Nautica for everyday use.

Invicta's don't go on sale, they stay on sale. $60 is the retail. They got me once also. I'm glad they did, because it got me into watches


Exact same thing that happened to me. Invicta was my first daily watch. Then I stepped my game up

Good looking watch at a cheap price. I wear mine all the time. Have had it for about 10 years and have only had to change the battery. And when I say everywhere, I mean in chemicals for the pool, cleaning, swimming, riding motorcycles, everything. Great watch I think for $100 to $150. Would not pay more than that though.

Broke,
What do you think of the Seiko Monsters? Is it difficult to change out from orange to black?

One of the best watches I've ever worn. Don't change dial. Sell the Orange, buy the black. You should not be out any money really. Maybe a few bucks. Buy used.

Love them. Countycomm is the exclusive on that watch or either a large retailer.

Yep. 14 former moderators left after Watchuseek was bought by some capital firm. They became all about money making and not about watches. We all started the new forum. Which is doing well right now.

If I kept my Orange Monster - it has been my everyday wearer for 10 years and I don't want to get rid of it - and wanted something else, not necessarily super dressy, what would you suggest if I wanted to stay under $300? Another Seiko. I actually really like the Black Monster also, but may get something a little different. Haven't decided.

Not dressy? Under $300? How about Citizen Nighthawk?



I bought mine used for $130

You can literally wear that watch on anything and it will look good. Buy a bunch of zulu and nato straps. And then a distressed leather and you're set.

I like that citizen.

In terms of quality, is Citizen similar to Seiko?
