I also got the Citizen Promaster but I waited and I got a great deal for it for $80 during a special sale that Amazon had on it. But I do understand from where you are coming from as to the price of the Invicta version.

I've seen it and I'm very tempted in pulling the trigger on it. I have two Pagani Designs homages and their quality and value are great.

This Casio G-Shock DW-6600 was issued to me by the US Air Force 2009. One of several model of watches issued to Special Forces back then. Featured in the movie "American Sniper". It was discontinued some years ago. NATO strap, bull-bars, and compass are my personal mods.
