Review

It wouldn’t be an Invicta without something wrong with it….not too bad though. It is definitely gun-metal, not Black-IP, as the Amazon description states, and the brushed areas are a little blotchy. There is also about 1/16 of an inch of play in the bezel when pushed in the opposite direction than the way it is intended to turn, again not too bad–good price 5. The bezel is pretty tight, so as long I don’t rotate the bezel too much and loosen it up, it shouldn’t be a problem and the blotchy finish is barely noticable.

I had an Invicta arrive missing a case back screw, one with blothy plateing, another that had an hour marker fall off the dial, and one that had the second hand fall off. This SAN III is a whole lot better than the Akula I got that was not keeping time at all when it arrived–defective movement, I had to have the movement completely disassembled, cleaned and put back together to get the watch working.

Not bad Invicta…you only screwed it up a little, and that’s pretty good for you. If they didn’t have such good looking designs I would never buy one of their never-know-what-your-gonna-get-watches ever again!!! I’m like a battered spouse that keeps coming back for more!

Overview

Featuring a black ion-plated stainless steel case, a black rubber and ion-plated bracelet, Swiss-quartz movement, and water-resistance to 1,640 feet (500 meters), this Swiss-made timepiece is able to track elapsed time with the use of three subdials. Nestled at the 4 o’clock position is a useful date window. With its stealth-like appearance, this watch is ready for any adventure.

Subaqua Collection

Led with expert engineering, and always ready to face the depths, no feat or occasion will ever be too great for Invicta’s Subaqua to handle. The sheer magnitude of this mighty timepiece is superbly executed with surgical-grade solid stainless steel, Swiss quartz or Swiss automatic movements, and multiple color options of ionic plating. Managing up to 500 meters of water, finished off with a unidirectional rotating bezel, integrated shock resistance, and Invicta’s luminous Trinite hands, the Subaqua is the diver’s definitive in negotiating any adventure by sea or by land.

Screw Down Crowns: Many Invicta watches are equipped with a screw down crown to help prevent water infiltration. This is most common on our Diver models. In order to adjust the date and/or time on such a watch, you must first unscrew the crown before you can gently pull it out to its first or second click stop position. To do this, simply rotate the crown counterclockwise until it springs open. When you have finished setting the watch, the crown must then be pushed in and screwed back in tightly. Not doing so will cancel the water resistance of the watch and will void all warranties from the manufacturer. Overall, this process should not require a lot of effort or force.
